TV's... what does the typical audiophile have?

I have a Sony 32" XBR TV in the family room and no other tv sets. We are waiting for the prices to get lower and for more HD stations but I am looking a DLP (Samsung 50") and plasma (Marantz 42") sets. Several of my friends have recently purchased the Samsung 50" Wide Screen HDTV with DLP and like it very much. My audio retailer recommends the Marantz Plasma.

I have upgraded to a Hitachi 51" HDTV. It is on most of the time. I`m the only one that cares about picture or sound. MY wife would rather lay in bed and watch history channel on our 20" Panasonic. I mentioned putting speakers in there and she nixed it really fast. I guess as long as I get the honey-do's done on time...

I have an old 30-something inch Mitsubishi and it's between the speakers so I want to get rid of it. TV in the US is so mind-numbingly dull and, to me, the antithesis of high-end audio. I have no place for it any more. We watch movies on the TV but we should probably ditch it for a projector.

Toshiba 56 Theatre wide HDTV have both dish network and Canadian express view HD satellite systems. Getting to the point if the program isn't available in high definition it's really hard to watch it anymore. standard definition signals totally suck.

Man oh man...you guys just don't get it...you chas after NOS tubes every day and bicker that old school vinyl is better than any new school digital format.

Get with the program

we all know that Black & White is better than color...the neuances provided...the deep blacks & rich grays...wait...who am I trying to kid...I'm just another sheep with a color t.v. Toshiba cinema series 32" 1998 vintage...but I dont even have cable...I get NBC and that is it...usually just watch movies.
