Nice setup!

What does the PS3 look like on the R74? I have exactly the same tv as you and wondered if its any good with a PS3.

Josh

it looks great running through the screen. My only complaint is that it only has one HDMI port, so i will need to get round to buying a switcher as i need to keep pulling the cables out.

And yeah crunchman its the shield

Nice setup. Did you build the shelf for the 360 yourself?

no its actually the centre speaker bracket for a 5.1 audio setup. I plan to get 5.1 eventually so the 360 may have to move. but the bracket is the perfect size for the 360. I used to have my old XBOX sitting there.

RoachycaL · 17 Jan 2007 at 19:12

So the bracket was on that stand already or did it come with a speaker system? Just interested as I think it would look good on my setup

Ahhh i think i see. It does fit really neat in there. Especially with the HD-DVD drive

well I have had this tv for exactly one year now and am more than happy with it. I went from the 14" portable in the first picture as my main tv to this so it was a massive step up

it has performed above and beyond my expectations. I have been blown away by it and whenever my mates come round they are well impressed.

Now that I have the HD-DVD drive and a few movies it really shows itself as a quality tv at a bargin price. A new model KDF-50E2010 comes with 2 HDMI connectors as well.

But I will be happy with this tv for several years to come.

Here's my little set-up:-

RoachycaL · 17 Jan 2007 at 20:10

Heres a few pictures of mine. I know their not great but I'm not very good with the camera. I'm 16 so I reckon I'm doing pretty well!

Im trying to get the master of ceremonies achievement on GRAW at the moment

And yes I do like Kiwi's!

FeFiDoh · 17 Jan 2007 at 21:24

gam3r · 17 Jan 2007 at 21:36

wow, nice set up. How did ya finance it?

RoachycaL · 17 Jan 2007 at 21:51

I worked part time from August till the end of December. I spent £300 of it on my pc in early November and bought the TV a week before my contract ended. I got £50 off it because I worked there

Oh and I got the speaker system for Xmas.
