    I thought you originally wanted that 46" Samsung.
    I did want the 46", I still do, it's not 1080p though, which I stated I don't really care much, I just wanted to know if anyone had that set, I do like that sony, but with a stand and a 2 years warranty, I up over $2525. Thats a lot, I mean I can do it, but that still a lot.

        If you can afford the Sony, I would go with that, but if you can't I wouldn't put myself in such a deep hole just for a TV. If $2500+ is stretching it, why would you place that kind of burden on your shoulders? I would go with what you can afford man, and you only know that. I wish I could have gone with the 56" Sammy or Sony 1080P TV, but that would really be stretching my limits + I would have needed a new stand probably nearing $3K by that point.

Anyway, does anyone have or would settle for any of these two set below?

            I have had a thing for the second one for a while now, anyone.

            Blue Ray movies are 1080p. And you will see a difference between 720p and 1080p on those movies. Plust they will up convert 720p and 1080i to 1080p.

              I bought an 80 dollar stand from Wal-Mart, actually I have 2 of them, and they work great. Don't pay 400 bucks for the Sony stand. I'll post pictures of them tonight. I finally got my stuff all set up since I got my new dual tuner 120 GB cable box today.

              The stand is not on Wal-Mart's web site, but they have them in-store. They look very, very nice for 80 bucksand it will fit the Sony SXRD you picked out perfect.

                  Well, I went to Best Buy this afternoon and I think I've made my decision.



                  The Toshiba is on sale for $799, it doesn't have an HD tuner but I don't need one because I have DirecTV anyway. All the reviews I have found online have been terrific. I also looked at the Sony KL2010 which was nice, but not better enought to spend $350 more.

                      FYI: you can get the 37" version at Sears for the same $799. 5 more inches for the same price.

                        Unfortunately the 37" won't fit in the armoire my wife bought. So it has to be the 32".

                          Did you take a look at AVSForums for what people are saying about the Toshiba?

                              Yes, there was a thread about it which the people were very happy with it.

                              I just checked my armoire and I'm 1" short of being able to fit the 37" LCD.
