i might show mine set up on my dads 42" plasma tv if i get the chance to.hopefully for xmas i got a home theatre kit for my room so i can have full on surround sound too and not have to use my Samsungs tv speakers.

[maxsquared]

what connection do you use? Because I have the same telly, but your one looks more darker and colourful than mine

[Smigit]

I may try to get a pic tomorrow but my cameras pretty poor. for now however my 360 is in my bedroom on a 24 inch Benq fp241W hooked up optically to some Z5400 Logitech speakers. The monitors sharred bt my pc also and of course they are set up so the xbox can stream off the PC. It's only a small room and I usually game from my PC chair anyway not from the bed so 24" is quite good for that.

I'm unsure how any images would turn out and my room needs a clean up 1st.

maxsquared: Looks like jesse is using Component. I presume you're using VGA?

Wow.

Wii looks so small at this setup :rofl:

Ye, that's right, i am using VGA... So now I see componenent is better than VGA... But I am still wanting the upscale ability...

Well have to wait until any digital form comes out then.

doesnt your dvd player you got there do upscailing??? or do you just prefer to use your xbox as your primary dvd player?

Is that a system selector box on the bottom. Is so, who makes it? It looks pretty sleek.

[Ayepecks]

I'll post a picture of mine when I get back home :) (Or at least, I'll try to, if I remember.)

[PiracyX]

@PiracyX - nice set up there very much like mine but do you play xbox through your monitor? Because i tried with VGA cable but all the colours were messed up big time.

@Timan - that a sweet looking setup the colours match perfectly.

Hey there. Yes i play with through the monitor with the VGA cable and it works pefectly. I set the screen to 1280x1024 and games look great. I really want a new monitor :(

Not necessarily. Try calibrating your TV to get it to match the color/contrast that you're happy with. You can do wonders to picture quality with a good calibration.

Some TVs have limited calibratioin support for VGA. At least, that's what the situation is for me. I can't change the saturation so the colors will be washed out forever. I had some high saturation with component and it looked great.

[DELTETHISACCOUNT]

Best TV in the world.

yeah man, its made by psyclone, its called a source selector. it has all components on the back, and optical audio. the one and only thing i didnt like about my tv, is it only came with 1 component in the back. thats just not nearly enough. You can pick it up at best buy, or circuit city, i think its 100 bucks. i have my HD box, wii, and xbox 360 hooked into it. im really happy with it, it definitly did the job. i originally bought the pelican one from best buy, it was absolute ****, it made scanlines on my tv and stuff, very poor quality.

Cool, thanks man.

[Smigit]

These suck because my only camera is the one on my phone. Anyway I didn't clean up like I said I would yesterday. I couldnt really be bothered. In amongst all the junk theres a Logitech Z5400, of which the control panel is atop the 360. Thats a 24 inch Benq FP241W. To its right is an iAudio X5 MP3 player which I'm using for audio atm since my PC's solution is less than satisfactory. The case is a Lian Li V2100B and like every great setup known to man theres a lavalamp next to the monitor.

Yeah theres a crap load of CD's, I'm currently re-ripping my collection. Those 2 piles account for 1 shelf worth of my collection. It's going to take some time.

Double post cause I am a newb.
