Mine was a 46" LCD and I thought it was the biggest TV ever. After awhile it didn't seem that big and I ended up putting it the bedroom. About 6 months ago I bought a 58" Plasma and said "Man this thing is awesome!!!". Now it doesn't seem that big anymore. Am I nuts or do any of you degenerate gamblers share my opinion??
i agree. my first was a 42 inch plasma that i got in 2005 -- don't remember what brand it was, but it had a feature on the remote that would swivel the tv to the left and right. paid $2500 for it, but ended up taking it back to the store for a refund when i moved back stateside because my insurance would only cover tvs for a max of $1000, and everybody told me how easy plasmas get damamged during shipment.
so anyway, i got a 50 inch plasma about 6 months ago for roughly $1100....i'm used to it now, but when i go to my brother's or my dad's house i definitely notice the difference. i'll never understand why someone with a regular 27 inch tv would splurge on a riding mower and neglect to get a big screen tv. some people just don't know how to set their priorities.

My parents are 85 and still have the 27" Toshiba Blackstripe I bought them 30 years ago. I guess that is why they are loaded......They never buy more then they need and they think everyone is too materialistic now and they only care about accumulating stuff. Can't say I disagree with them.
I wound up buying a 46'' Samsung for the living room, and should have gone larger. Then Fry's had a great deal on a 46" Sony that I bought for the bedroom and football. Wish I never got the Sony as it doesn't compare to the Samsung picture. Now I'm thinging of going to a 50-55" Samsung for the living room and putting the smaller Samsung in the bedroom with the Sony. Doesn't hurt watching two games at once.
yeah it's like my brother, after i got all my tv and surround sound set up and i was showing it off to anybody who would look, he asked me my opinion on what he should do, only thing is his living room is pretty wide open with a lot of space....my advice was to ask the dude at best buy who works on sundays
Go for it! I was in a house recently that had this set up and I was super impressed, I believe this will be my next purchase as well, currently have a 56in LCD that I really like, but we are talking about moving and if we do I think ill leave that here and get myself a projector for the basement :toast:
