With all the xboxs and PS9s and all this other fggt gamer shit that plays DVDs, someone has to have a DVD player that they don’t want. I finally bought a TV. ---

what is an upconverting one? will that make the picture better? as you’re aware, the tv is pretty large. ---

How cheap is cheap? I’ve got a 5.1 home theater in a box I’m not using because about 10% of the time the speakers would make buzzing noises. The DVD player is a single disk 1080i upconverter that worked perfectly though. IIRC it’s a Philips system. EDIT: It’s this guy: [http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8189131&type=product&id=1164156710855](http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8189131&type=product&id=1164156710855) Like I said, video worked really well. I think the speakers themselves are fine because I swapped to a set of Creative Labs that I know were good and the problem got better but didn’t go away. ---

upconverting is a bit of a SCAM. your TV already upconverts if needed… so why pay twice. something like this for $40 is fine. [http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product\_id=5584897](http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5584897) ---

it looked like this, but had a swivel base. Those are not real drawers, though. i think it was a low end model. ![http://www.phillipsauctionservice.com/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/Zenith_Console_TV.263131725_std.jpg](http://www.phillipsauctionservice.com/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/Zenith_Console_TV.263131725_std.jpg) ---
