I was looking at the 47", but decided that this one fit the space better, plus it was cheaper. ---

That was top of the line back in the day.Its worth keeping,it’ll only go up in value.Not to mention it probably sounds really good. I had a Pioneer SX-1080 a few years back and that thing was insane. Nice TV,Phillips is decent as far as quality.Did you get an extended warranty? I would get one with any LCD/Plasma. ---

[quote=“Nikuk,post:9,topic:37272"”] wallpaper? or faux finish? [/quote] I was going to ask the same thing but I didn’t want to sound too gay. It looks good though with the white wood work and the hardwood floors. ---

The walls are a faux finish, actually a lot more gray than they look in that picture. The sun was setting so the lighting was odd. I wasnt sure if I liked it at first, but its really grown on me. ---
