highland man Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Finally got my Wii all hooked up to my new HD Tv. Anyone looking for a good affordable HDTV should have a look at the Goodmans LD2655HD from Comet, £399 with HDMI, component, VGA, RGB Scart, 26 inch. Got it at Christmas and have been extremely impressed with the quality. Let me know what you think of the set up.
AeroScap Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 The TV is a LG 50PC1D, in the corner there is a Yamaha RX-V396RDS hooked up to 5 surround speakers and the Wii with component at the bottom of the TV with Wii play, Wii Sports and Zelda and wifi for surfing (I also have another numchuk and wiimote *just cant be arsed to take a photo of it*) The room has another 3 metres from the furthest back photo, so there is plenty of space for wii sports

SimbaK2K Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 New 32" Samsung LCD is arriving tomorrow morning so will post a picture once its arrived. Will look sweet once its setup. Got the component cable all ready!
SimbaK2K Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 New samsung arrived as expected. Hooked up and looks outstanding! Component cable works well. Can highly recommend the tv
That Guy Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Is that a 23" TV? Thats what I've just ordered.
SimbaK2K Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Not quite. 32" HD LCD, id recommend turning the sharpness quite low though to avoid jagged lines on the picture.
Mikey Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Yeah, I've turned down the sharpness all the way down on my HDTV. Looks much better with 0 sharpness.
martinist Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 i realised i still haven't posted my wii set up (and if i have this is a better pic anyways)
That Guy Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Not quite. 32" HD LCD, id recommend turning the sharpness quite low though to avoid jagged lines on the picture. Haha, it looked quite small in the picture. I'm not expecting Wii to look that good on it, it's mainly for my 360. I've played Zelda on the HDTV downstairs and it looked pretty bad.
Guest Stefkov Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Can highly recommend the tv As do I, mines only a 26" but its a great TV. Especially if you get the freeview working.
Noodleman Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Is that a 23" TV? Thats what I've just ordered. From Currys? I'm thinking of getting that one if so. Definatly in the market for a new TV in the next couple of weeks anyway.
That Guy Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 From Currys? I'm thinking of getting that one if so. Definatly in the market for a new TV in the next couple of weeks anyway. It is available from Currys, but my Dad ordered one from a work catalogue. Basically just the web deals prices. It looks really nice and I've heard good things about it. Plus the 23" one has a HDMI socket. I was going to get the 26" one but they were out of stock plus I only have a tiny room so it's probably for the best.
DanielTimothy Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 Mines just been updated with a PS3... Anyone willing to help steal HazyUK's set up with me? Nice stuff mate, although I think I'll need help carrying the PS3.
Ash Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 Heres mine was going to wait till i got my new TV but can not decide between the Sony Braiva U series 26" or the Samsung 26" any advice?? The picture is from my phone camera, so its not great quality.
AeroScap Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 I'd go with the samsung. I read somewhere sony are dropping their lcd range (?) On the otherhand though the samsung one looks nice, I think the sony will be more at home and fit in more with other electronics as it doesnt have that little curvy bump that the sammy does. Back in the years of yore, sony screen was the best. Not so sure now but hope this has helped you a little.

The picture is from my phone camera, so its not great quality. Go for the Samsung. Sonys are over rated and over priced and I've had bad experiencs with Sony's warrentys. My 32" Samsung is awesome and looks great.
LukeLee Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 thought i'd post my set up now i've got my wii zelda organiser and here's the other front...

My 32" Samsung is awesome and looks great. par-don! I know sony has a worldwide warrenty. As far as I know sammy's dont do that. Also @luke lee: where did you get that stand from?
