    In reply to The Harley-Davidson Chair Goes Vroom Vroom
    Wow. I have a chair that can go vroom like a Harley... it's a plain office chair with a "Bass Shaker" tactile transducer. It was like $100 for the chair, $50 for the transducer, and $50 for a 75W subwoofer box amp that I use to drive it. It can rumble so hard it's disorienting (though the amp gets quite hot when it's cranked)

    What about this makes it worth anything close to $7,000??!!! I'm willing to beat up the next person that buys one.

    There are no TV's too big, just rooms too small.

    I have no clue how to get a movie in a 4K format. I do not have the room to put in a screen that would do a 4K format justice. Only a small percentage of movies I watch would even benefit from a higher resolution.

    I still want this.

    Hard.

    @Eruanno: Of course it's not!

    240 is more than 120. Come on! Use your maths! That's twice as good!

    I don't care about uber-thinness. I care about getting the best picture possible in a 52"-54" sized television for less than $2500.

    And as for the 240Hz refresh, that isn't really doing it for me. Tell me that it has a view angle like a CRT or even a plasma, which is more and more what I'm probably going to go with.

    @OMG! Ponies!: You should be able to find a 54" Panasonic V10 for under 2500. That's a damn nice TV.

    @OMG! Ponies!: I'm with you there, the thinness alone isn't enough to make me consider one of these. Although this TV is sexy as hell

    @OMG! Ponies!: 200 Hz Refresh on a 50inch LCD I just got in europe is incredible. People always ask me whether they're watching Full HD when we're watching normal SKY digital channels (its a UK tv service). Basically, I believe the refresh rate is whats making the pictures look so incredibly realistic.

    Stay away from the plasma's that's just moving backwards.

    @OMG! Ponies!: I suggest you direct your attention at this years LED tv from Samsung.

    Thin as tv pictured above, 120Hz, and 5 million :1 contrast ratio.

    Go see one a showroom or something, honestly the viewing angle is as good as a plasma or crt (what are you doing watching like a stalker at the side of the room anyways?), and the picture is phenomenal.

    [www.samsung.com]

    Almost, to me, seems like this new TV is their response to that Samsung LEDtv.

    Oh yes almost forgot if price point is an issue i believe the 7 series is actually on sale at Sears for around 2,500 for the 55in.

    @OMG! Ponies!: I second CE_Salesman's suggestion. I just picked up a 50" Panasonic G15 a couple of weeks ago and it's pure sweetness. Either that or the more expensive (and nicer) V10 will get you THX certification and a picture to die for. Especially for the price. I've never been happier with a TV.

    @ts-x: Thanks to all. I'm not buying until after a cross-country move next year anyway, but I do try to stay up-to-date with what's out there. I want the best bang for my buck and I want it to last.

    Which kind of led tech does it use? Is it edge lighting or back lighting?

    @GodfreyOriole:


    ... local dimming is the entire point of LED back lighting. For a company like JVC to miss that would be astronomically at odds with reason.
