I have a good friend who sells Samsung and LG lcds and LEDs. He hooked me up with a couple of 40's+ and 30's+ inchers. Also got my sound system from him. Great deal he gave to me. Just call up Erwin, 9513643. I promised that if I was satisfied w/ what he offered to me I'd plug him in.

Btw, don't purchase plasma tv's. They're all prone to ghosting. Plasma lcd's aren't the "IN THING!" When me and my techie buddies see someone purchasing a plasma tv we couldn't help but feel sorry for the person. Didn't do their research eh ang laking investment ang tv.

1st thing, Plasmas are not LCDs. There are no LED tvs. They are called LED-lit LCDs. Plasmas are still around, it is the choice of Videophiles because LCDs cannot beat the color and blackness of Plasmas. Ghosting or burn-in are a thing of the past for the newer generation of Plasmas. LCDs only excel in brightness, but many complain of eye-strain due to this. LCDs are also prone to picture lag. If you would look at this website, LCD overall rating are found in the lower tier... Even LED-lit LCDs are disappointing.

Have you tried the new (year 2007 and up) plasma TVs??? All the problems associated with plasma TVs before are now a thing of the past.

hi guys!

I just want to ask if where could I buy audio cables for the speakers (sub included) of our sony 5.1 sound system?

because when our house was flooded I think the wires was washed away by the flood water...damn ondoy...

TIA

[tsupermario]

i had a brief opportunity to compare the pic quality of an lcd tv (sanyo) and plasma (panasonic) 42" side by side. while the picture and color of the lcd was brighter, the plasma had better contrast imho. i like the pic quality of the plasma better. n00b opinion only :D

Yep, tried it. Still the same problem. Btw, thanks for the correction of someone my "plasma lcd".

I have a almost 3yr old Panasonic 42" Plasma TV, my kids and their friends have been playing Wii on it every weekend, and almost everyday during school vacations. Didn't encounter any of the problems (IR, burnt pixels, etc.).

Last August, I bought a Panasonic 42" LCT TV, and upon turning it ON when I got home, there was a dead pixel already. Bad trip lang yung shop (Sights and Sounds), ayaw palitan yung unit.

[arnoldsamson]

Me also, i'd personally go for plasma tv. they deliver more realistic "feel" to a movie, it's like watching in cinemas. but, it all depends in what purpose the tv will do for you. but definitely, for movies nothing beats a plasma tv except crt (still the best).

Q: anong model na ang mga labas ng Denon AVRs ngayon? naghahanap na ng kapalit itong AVR-2802 ko..mga ka-level lang siguro ng luma ko..5.1 or 6.1 setup, pwede na & nasa magkano na kaya?

[MXFX]

i just got the avr391 for $250. very basic 5.1 that works for me, though all recommendations point to avr591 for about $350. havent done any of the advanced settings yet, but so far so good with klipsch loudspeakers (my first big setup).

[frenchtower]

Denon and Klipsh... you can never go wrong.

Sirs help po please. My mom and I plan to set up a home theater system in our Audio Visual Room. As of now, we're planning to replace our 3 year old Samsung 40" LCD TV to either of these 3: Samsung UA40C6900VR Series 6 LED, Samsung UA40C7000WR Series 7 3D LED, or Samsung UA40C6200UR Series 6 LED. Is it ok to use the PS3 as the Blu-Ray player or do we need to buy a separate Blu-Ray player? What shop can you recommend for our home theater set up? We live in Quezon City but we can also try to check out shops in Shangri-La and Rockwell

[Monseratto]

You can try Sight and Sound or Listening in Style, both in Shang. Also try Listening room in Megamall. PS3 is an ideal blu-ray player, it can now play 3D titles with its latest firmware. Warning: Samsung 3D TVs will only work on Samsung 3D blu-ray player. Sony and Panasonic 3D TVs are compatible with PS3 3D and each others 3D bluray players, but not with Samsung,

mura kay sights and sounds and kung may tanong ka, nan dun si Sir Vic to explain. got my toshi av700 from him last june, when everyone was selling it at 25k, he gave it at 21k.

i bought my speakers and AV receiver from him too, way back when his shop was still in quiapo. he recommended B&W for my HT and sobrang sulit. nag pa demo talaga si sir vic. as in take your time demo kung alin maganda at pumili.

[MXFX]

family and i are very happy with our samsung led. problem free so far for the last few months. nice picture, and i havent even check if there is any calibration like our sharp aquos.

i finally looked into my denon amp and now getting better sound. this amp has a restorer feature that enhances compressed audio just like my mp3s on my ipod. this feature alone made it sound like i got better speakers all of a sudden.

i also ordered a pair of $29 dayton b652 speakers that gets rave reviews online. i plan to use it for surrounds. a klipsch sub after then im done. i hope.

So its ideal to buy a stand-alone Blu-Ray player? Because ever since we bought the old Samsung 40" Bordeaux LCD TV for our Audio Visual Room 3 years ago, our TVs are mostly Samsung LCDs. Like in my and my brother's room (Samsung 32" Bordeaux LCD TV and where the PS3 is located is when we need to play online, buy classic PSone games in the PS Store, buy upgrades to our PS3 games, and updating its firmware), my sisters room (Samsung 32" Series 4 LCD TV), the master's bedroom (Samsung 46" Series 5 LCD TV), and guest room (old school non HD Samsung 22" LCD TV). All are coupled with Samsung DVD players and Skycable Digibox. We can't put a 46" above LED TV in our Audio Visual Room because the cabinet where the TV will be located only fits 40" below TVs. We will try to visit Sights and Sounds and the other shop in Shang tomorrow
