Mitsubishi LT-52149 52-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with Integrated Sound Projector

The UltraThin Frame of the 149 series LCD flat panel HDTVs gives you more picture and sound in less space. The result is an immersive sight and sound experience that lets you forget you are simply watching television. This whole dimension in sound comes from an integrated sound projector comprised of a 16-speaker array, giving you true-to-life 5.1 surround sound without bulky receivers or additional speakers. And all 149 Series models are digital cable ready; simply insert a cable card and view all of your favorite programming, accessible via TV guide daily. For once, technology that truly simplifies your life.
Customer Review: Wow! Very nice...and at a GREAT price!
I bought my LT52149 just 4 days ago from a local retailer on a whim frankly, and so far I'm really impressed with this set! The ease of set up, VERY nice video quality and assignable inputs make this set a winner in my book! I really like the thin bezel on this set as it allowed me to fit a 52" set in a 49" wide space. My first and most recent lcd tv purchase was a 40" Series-6 Samsung TOC set for my master bedroom. I've had it now for about 6 months and I absolutely LOVE it! In fact, I initially set out to purchase the 52" Series-6 Samsung TOC set but at 51.5", it was too wide to fit my entertainment center. Based on the pricing I've seen so far, I practically STOLE this set @ $2079.99 out the door, including tax. I would never have given this set a second look at its original price, but now I'm glad I did! For me, it leaves nothing to be desired.
Customer Review: Took a look in person...
I was able to view this set at a local Circuit City, and I was really impressed with this set. This is a high-end LCD screen that does not have the annoying white "glare" that many other LCDs have - the glare that makes it (for some) impressive in an in-store demo but probably annoying when you get it home and watch it for an extended period of time. Bright whites are good, but not when they have an unnatural glare to them. I was there to look at the Panasonic 800U 50" Plasma (great THX mode and skin tones,) which I also recommend and probably plan to buy, but this screen kept catching my eye due to its excellent color, picture quality and image "naturalness." I would definitely consider this screen and compare it to higher-end Samsung LCD displays if I were in the market for an LCD, and am posting this review because you don't hear much about Mitsubishi LCDs but this display (and I imagine its 46" and non-sound-bar variants) is pretty remarkable and has some unique qualities I have not seen on other LCDs. The only screens that I've been genuinely impressed with are the 60" Pioneer Kuro Plasma, The Panasonic 800U 50" Plasma, some *very* high end Samsung LCD screens ($5-$6K), and this Mitsubishi screen. I would describe this LCD as looking almost like a "DLP done right" - the cinematic quality of DLP with a super-wide viewing angle, and offering the clarity of and LCD, but not the artificial contrasty quality of an LCD. If no one told you this screen was an LCD, you might think it was some kind of high-quality plasma or next-gen DLP screen. Definitely worth looking at. I think it's a pretty unique screen. [EDIT] - Another thing I forgot to mention - this screen has a high-quality *matte* (not a reflective) finish which seems to work very well. This may be why it sort of reminds me of a DLP from the future, since they typically have matte screens. A matte screen is what I think may give it that "cinematic" quality as movie and projector screens are generally always matte and not reflective like a typical LCD screen. Reflective screens tend to make the blacks look deeper and improve contrast, but I didn't feel like a reflective screen would have improved this TV.

Yamaha RX-V657 - AV receiver - 7.1 channel - black

Yamaha RX V657 is a 7.1 channel receiver offering many exclusive Yamaha functions including YPAO Automatic Optimization, Quad-Field CINEMA DSP, XM Satellite Radio Ready and Component Video Up Conversion.
Customer Review: Impossible to beat for the money
Unless you're going all out with a home theater budget in excess of $10k, this receiver should do everything you need it to do. Excellent sound right out of the box -- should improve with break-in. Very good match for my B&W 602 S3s. I'm not running a true surround set up just yet, only 2 channel. But it does a very good job with movies and music with only the 2-channel set up. I used to run a vintage Marantz receiver. The Yamaha is clearer, more open, transparent than the Marantz, but does not quite have the same bottom-end response. My next addition will be a plasma screen. And with this receiver, you can get a bare-bones screen as it converts all of the video signals to component out, as well as provides sound.
