Update! Upgraded to a Sony Bravia KLV-32S310A LCD TV.  ;D ;D ;D


 
The TV came with an Sony HTIB (SRP 19K) which I sold. Also came with a Sony Wireless Headset (SRP 3K). Wouldn't have purchased the TV
without the freebies. Wanted the 37" but couldn't afford it.  *sigh* :'( :'( :'(

My NAD CD player got busted. The HK is still performing beautifully though as are the Monitor Audios and Wharfedales. The Wharfs I have to move to the back whenever we watch movies.

Nice, neat setup you got there chief.

May i suggest that you swap the monitor center with Harman for better sound imaging coming from the speaker.  ;)

Hehe, yeah cguro MARS lang yung sakin. Di ko kaya magka SARS. The purchase of the LCD TV actually has a story to it because the missis initially didnt approve of the purchase. I had to do use some marketing/convincing tactics. Some of my selling points below.

- sell the 29" wega for 15K
- sell the included HTIB for 15K
- the wireless headset is hers, she can listen to music while cooking!!!
- the LCD TV consumes half the electricity of the CRT (somewhat true)
- after all's said and done, well only need to cash out 14K, and after year of two of use, the electricity saved will pay for that cash out!

She finally approved after a few sweet nothings.  ;D  ;D  ;D

Now, she watches DVDs more often than I do!
