TV shopping. Tomorrow I'm going TV shopping. I have a cabinet that is 36.5" wide so that is my max. total width. the hight can be adjusted (with a hammer...) how big can I fit in this? and which one should I be looking at and where? I think some models of a 37" will fit this if not all. does anyone make a 36" ? I don't see any in paper catalogs I'm going through right now. |

Throw away your cabinet, you'll have way better choice in TVs. Get TV + TV stand, if you can. |
WTF how come some of these TV's don't have S-video inputs... The 37 samsung and LG don't. |

this TV is for my parents who will be watching regular DVD's and maybe buying an HD cable box. no gaming and I doubt blueray player any time soon. 37 is plenty for them. the couch is only like 8' back too. |
The screen measurement of any TV is a diagonal measurement. For a 37" you're probably only looking at about 30" wide, plus the bezel (I'm too lazy to do the actual math, but it's not difficult). The listed specs for any TV should include the actual dimensions - for example, this 37" Samsung lists as about 36" total width: http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/prodde...14&catid=23244 |
Yea you should be able to fit most 37's. I just measured my 32inch Aquos and it's exactly 31.5 inches wide so looks like and i'm just assuming by Soundy's example and mine here that whatever inch TV your buying, minus 0.5-1 inch and that will be your width give or take. If the Cabinet moving isn't an option definitely go with a 37 :) |

the couple specs I checked online were 36.1 - 36.2 for a couple models so very close. I'll deinfatly have a tape meausure in hand before buying. what's the best way of getting an HDPVR right now? other then they gay downtown apartment deal which I won't get. |
go to visions and get a deal off a tv plus hdpvr and mayb a sound system along with it for cheap |
chuck that cabinet or watever work requires and get a proper size tv with stand, no seriously |

I wouldn't rush into buying a TV. I would wait for a good deal. Check out redflagdeals.com daily. |
in that case just get a 32" any LCD than, they arent that expensive |

I have the panasonic and PVR in the living room.... going to open the boxes now. I think the TV was 900 and PVR 360 or somewhere around there from visons. talked down from $1000 / $460 |
from visions i got a 40" samsung for 1.1k talked down from 1.4k and a hdpvr for 450 talked down from 600 bucks i think |
lol and here i was thinking this thread was about buying from infomercials or the shopping channel |
check out http://www.openboxco.com/ you can get a 37inch for half the price SHARP 37" WITH 1080 i. $575 SHARP 37" WITH 1080P. $650 |
you also need to consider ventilation for your tv my tv requires 6 inches of clearance on top for it which sucked because i didn't take that into account visions is easy to negotiate |
Samsung! lol. im biased though. haha. 32inch 360 model. |
