Woppum Posted August 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Ok finally move in to the flat in about 1 month from now so am going to place the order for the tellys within the next couple of wks. I have had no time to do any more reaserch so I am calling on you lot for any advise on wether the above list I have chosen is still the right way to go. Any help would be apreciated. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizze Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 I would get the Pioneer 508XD for the bedroom and the Pioneer 60" 1080p screen for the main room, the 60" is out in around 4 weeks. Or the Fujitsu Aviamo 65", it is 1080p, with their AVMIII processing and is meant to be stunning, although not cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted August 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Cant help but think 5" could make all the diffrence to the set up of the room. Im not paying double for the Fuji over the Panny though. It is surly not worth that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOSE Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Anyone know how good the new LG 60" plasma set is, certainly got rave reviews in HCC. Am still debating what to replace my rear projection with, and so far my money (and vouchers) will be going on a Sammy 50" LCD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikeyboy Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Nice setup your getting - you should love the Arcams ive got the AVR300 with Ruark speakers, never regretted buying them once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 I think they are easy to use and make a great sound. Im used to them now so wouldn't want to change. Im not so tech friendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted September 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Well the flat is getting there now, finally moved in now. I have no Internet though for the next couple of weeks so may not be on here much, I hope you will survive. Anyways, thought id post a few pics of the telly's so far: This is the bedroom telly - the new 50" Pioneer. The picture really is incredible, put motorstorm on and the difference in picture between this and my old 43" Pioneer is staggering. The floor is still not carpeted yet. That will be another 2 weeks. I also wont have the cabinet for the all the equipment for a similar amount of time so its all resting nicely on the underlay. The Valadine sub is superb! Little B&W speakers in each corner of the room. Great noise and look good IMHO. This is the temporary set up which im using until the 65" Fujitsu comes in a couple of weeks. The speakers cant be mounted on the walls until the proper telly is fitted so are just resting on cardboard... Friday night was a bit of a disaster. Had a few friends round and everything stopped working. Luckily the bloke who installed it promptly came over the next day to fix. All is now working. Properly good gaming with the new quality of sound. Great fun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Got the Aviamo fitted last friday so have hd the weekend now have a play with it. It is simply stunning, far more impressive in every way than the latest 50" Pioneer. Looks stunning to, esp in the high gloss blk frame. It took 4 of us to carry it upstairs and same again to stick it on the wall bracket. In the box customs weighed it at 107kg! Anyway I will try and get some pics up sometime this week. I still have not Internet yet so it aint easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
