@Moz i'm in the military

[Mozo901]

Man what do you do for a living?

[ckdafinest]

nice setup and looks like a relaxing atmosphere. what brand is the sound panels and where did you get them?

[keefy6]

@ckdafinest thanks, they are ATS Acoustics

[ckdafinest]

@keefy6 cool thanks

[keefy6]

@ussnimitz3666 admittedly im a little skeptical of a new model claiming comparable performance as the 111fd. interesting though, i'll have to read up on this model:) i'm pretty happy with it though.

[ussnimitz3666]

This is exactly setup I would get unless panasonic takes out a replacement for the vt25 that'll have similar performance to 111FD :D

[Chopper41463]

Great tv, i have the same model. I was considering purchasing the new 3-D 58" Panasonic plasma, but the Kuro's PQ looks so much better. The first tv to ever score a 10 on CNET.com. Nice set up.

[keefy6]

@Chopper41463 agree, personally i think it became the standard that other panels that followed are judged. 3D is a personal preference, the images that i've seen haven't convinced me it's worth it and the glasses to me are uncomfortable. I'll wait - i'm sure the technology will get better with time.

@nomyaw hey appreciate it thanks

[kenroy916]

nice dude this room has a good atmosphere to it maybe its just the lighting also great system i have dish right now but it's not worth it at all im thinking about getting just a good antennae like that. Do they still have decent picture quality??

[keefy6]

@kenroy916 hey appreciate it. i'm all about comfort you know. as far as the antennae, many companies make them you just have to ensure you get the correct one for your region. do a search for HDTV signal and what type of frequency antennae needed for where you are. HD picture quality is only as good as the quality and strength signal received (amount of filtration), which is also a part of why i don't have cable. my picture is outstanding

[MercurySabre81]

Very nice setup you got there for home theatre! Check mine out sometime!

[keefy6]

@MercurySabre81 cool thx, will do

[tenjinnim]

just wondering... how much did all of this set up cost you ? ball park ?

[keefy6]

@tenjinnim the tv obviously is the most expensive part of the system, easy to find out its price online; The speakers if you can find them are not selling now for what i paid for them as well. so all in all i would say around $7700. this doesn't include equipment that i no longer use. If i was buying everything right now, it could be had for maybe 5800. mind you all this was accumulated (and upgraded) beginning 2001. so up until last year when i bought the tv, it took me 8 years.

[tenjinnim]

nice speaker set up...

paradigm FTW FTL ...

[keefy6]

@tenjinnim appreciate it thanks

Hello i have all klipsch 7.1 with the RF-82 as the kickers with a rw-10d sub i have a yamaha htr-5890 how truly good is a marantz i would love to try one but scared cuz i had yamaha forever !

[keefy6]

I think you can't go wrong with Marantz. My model i bought in '02 and it's a great. If i were to upgrade it would either be a Denon or possibly Pioneer. My decision would be based on how the amp pairs with the speakers, not the availability of new sound formats(dtshd/dolbyhd etc). As long as there is a Preout from your DVD Player and inputs to the reciever, you'll have the lossless sound formats. Plus, Marantz is great with music.

[Deke1]

great TV, but just not as good as the Pioneer Elite PRO-141FD

[keefy6]

lol technically it may be, but i would not pay the difference for a marginal difference in PQ to my eyes. Both ARE elites in the end. In addition, i don't need the size of a 60", my TV before this one was a "62.

[andersonjjj333]

nice setup

[keefy6]

thx alot!

[andersonjjj333]

Yeah man come check out mine when you get a chance its not as good as yours but its ok

[Otacoax]

hey man killer setup! whats the song playing in the background?

[Otacoax]

oh nevermind that must be the song on the dvd. ha! i like it, very relaxing.

[keefy6]

hey thanx,that's right.

[jeff666p]

Why don't you have cable?

[keefy6]

there are only a few shows that i like to watch on cable, i'm not home enough to really watch enough to get my money's worth. OTA HD quality is of a better signal strength and i play games/watch alot of movies.

[majdi75]

[ramo1050]

sweet setup check out my office setup

[keefy6]

Thanks again, and I sure will.

[Win98Error]

Very cool setup, i heard that Klipsch rf 35 etc tend to sound a bit bright during some music. how do they sound? thinking about getting some Klipsch bookshelfs / center channel. great video

[keefy6]

I really believe that depends on the type of source you use. Marantz Amps/Receivers are engineered with music in mind (check their site), so my combination works well. They sound better the more power they are given. Had now for about 4 years and they took a minute to break in:)

[MrYoda1972]

nice set up. where did you get your acoustic panels?

[keefy6]

hey thanks, it's atsacoustics(dot) com
