My Improved Home Theater with HD DVD and Vizio 42″ LCD HDTV

March 25, 2010 by  
Filed under DVD Home Theater System

I sold my 32″ Insignia LCD HDTV to a friend and upgraded to a 42″ Vizio LCD HDTV. I also picked up a Toshiba HD-A3 at Sears on their Black Friday sale. I still have my Philips HDD/DVD recorder, Harman/Kardon AVR 247 and my Bose Acoustimass 16.

    i think i’m going crazy :( . i had 17” lcd not long time ago then i jumped on 20” lcd then after months i jumped on 22 and later 24” thinking that it will be totally enough . then after few months i bought 32” which i’m currently using now i’m thinking it’s too small for movies and iwant to buy 42” but i don’t know if i will stop on 42”

    what’s the best size for watching movies?

    i got my 120Hz whren they were still new….now they have the same TV but with 240Hz.
    i’m pretty comfortable with my set up…movies are great, that smooth motion is excellent. I’ll but another Vizio, this time, 240 Hz and move the 120Hz to my bedroom

    When I had this set-up I usually got he best results using 1080i. I guess it is all personal preference. Test it and see what you like best. I now have a 1080p TV and a 1080p Blu-ray player.

    nice set up your receiver, Harman/Kardon is really good. I have an AVR 5000 which is old but still sounds good like all their products.

    PPl don’t get it if it’s American company (even if it outsources) it will be cheaper labor (Asia) and all the rest of the politics along w/it. But Buying American will be more cost efficient for the most part, w/anything. I’m looking to get the 52″ by them as stated they get good reviews! GO VIZIO!

    Insignia is so much better than a Vizio. The picture quality and sound is far more superb on the Insignia. Remember that Insignia is made by LG, who is becoming one of the best electronic companies. Vizio’s quality is cheap, does not display a full HD picture, and speakers pick up static and makes awful noises. But hey, when you buy cheap, you get cheap.
