It's here and it's B-E-A-UUUUUUUTIFUL!

Well, I got my TV on Thursday and I've been calibrating, tweaking and fiddling with it. Anyway, I've been testing it and am LOVING it!

Here are a couple pictures:

Before I put the TV into place...



Here's the TV in its new home....



And just another angle...



I'm VERY impressed with this TV so far!!!

Ahhh sorry, I'm going on a lack of sleep. It's been a very busy last couple days!

Yeah the Sony 60A2000

Congrats Jon. I assume based on the model # that its 60" although it doesn't look that big in the picture you took.

I can attest to the fact those subs are huge. Before going to a PB12/2+ I was running 2 16-46pc+'s. Those things were monsters. Unfortunately this was before the dedicated HT and the WAF wasn't going over to well.

Awesome, Jon. Congrats. I've been working on the wife to upgrade ours since Oct. I thought that I had her onboard on Sunday, but alas; she had a very sudden and very emphatic tune change on Monday as I was preparing to place an order.

I've been wondering what to do with my center channel when I upgrade (mine currently sits on top of the RPTV) -- good idea mounting it on the wall.

Hope you enjoy.

The height of the Center Channel bothers me just a hair. It's a bit higher than I wanted just because I wanted to make sure that the sound cleared the top of the TV enough. Ah well, I'll get used to it!

Yeah, The Wii sensor fits PERFECTLY on top of the TV. I debated back and forth whether or not I wanted to stick it on the underside, but decided against it.

Once I get my 360 back, I'll probably hook up the Live Vision Camera and stick it up top of there, too.

The size of the TV is a lot bigger in person. In stores, the 60 didn't look as big. Once you get it home, the TV looks monstrous!

I got to play a little bit of Resistance: Fall of Man and Fight Night Round 3 on it and it looks fabulous!!

The sub has always gotten the most comments since I've had it. I always get the question "Is that a speaker?!" or "Is that your sub?!" or "What is that thing?!"

Seriously, I am stunned by the picture quality. Going from a Front Projector and a little TV that were both 720p Resolution, I didn't think I was going to notice that much of a difference. But, wow.... I tell ya... I am noticing soooooooo much more detail than I did before. Transfers show more details and film grain. That was something I didn't really see when I was using my other sets. The tiny bits of film grain in the source prints never showed up. It's amazing also the clarity! The first disk I popped in after calibration was Open Season and I was floored. The 3D quality was absolutely amazing!

Congrats Jon!

Maybe our 60A2000s can mingle, ooops, wrong technology.

As a wise man once said, you've come a long way baby, welcome to the players club....

Damn, that is just awesome. I'm glancing at my own 27" tv & asking it, "now why can't you grow up to be like that?"
