This could be an interesting thread.

In response to yours, Wow, that's a big screen. Is that a projection screen? if so, the quality looks good from the picture, but what's your first hand experience with it?

I'll post mine once I clean my desk up v_v

I was just about to ask that. Laughing Laughing I wish I had a big screen like you detective392, thats pretty good quality for a projection screen if it is one. My dad has a 42 inch. but I rarely use it for anime purposes since it's usally taken. Rolling Eyes It's hooked up to a surround sound system with two 10 inch subwoofers.

Edit: thought I should add more to the post.

I don't have any photos of it specifically but it's a moderate sized tv with a nice KOSS 5.1 surround sound sytem complete with sub-woffer.

Are those 15s I see in the speaker cabs? Wow, it's been ages since I've seen woofers larger than 8s in a home setting. With all the 5.1 setups, everything's getting smaller.

@detective392 - nice setup your folks have there. A RL friend of mine has a setup very similar to yours, & we watched the re-mastered version of Akira on it; it was jawdropping to say the least.

This is the setup I use to watch anime on, when I can get my husband off the Xbox360 that is.., Anime smile + sweatdrop

Eh, I just have a 27-inch mid-1990s 28-inch Sony Triniton with a normal circa-2000 Toshiba DVD player, and I don't have extra speakers or anything. About the only thing remotely "unusual" about my video setup is that I have a Pioneer Laserdisc player that I bought just as LD was going the way of the dodo.

The annoying thing is that, whenever I upgrade to HDTV, which won't be anytime soon since I can't afford it (and, unlike the United States, Canada doesn't have a leglislated end-of-NTSC-broadcasts day, so there's no rush to get one), because of the TV unit I have, I would be limited to a television that is only 28.5 inches wide (not diagonal) at the absolute maximum. While stuff in widescreen would be the same width as it is on my current television, if I watch something on the old 3:2 standard ratio, the actual picture would be much smaller than I see now on my old TV, which would be especially a problem for me as I prefer watching anime subtitled instead of dubbed.





I also watch anime at the University of Ottawa anime club...



...and some unlicensed shows at "The Site that Must Not Be Named".

I have DotT on CD-ROM with full voice acting more than a decade ago, though.

It's an ad for the second Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou OVA series. I got it either when I got the bargain-priced (by Japanese standards) ¥2100 DVD re-release of the first two Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou episodes or it might have been included in the 2003 Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou calendar.

Here's such a lame question....what beer is that ? lol I need about 20 after seeing some of your guys set ups. My bud Jason has an uber cool thousand buck projector with special screen and 6 small surround sound speakers in the room with the screen. It's sooooo nice. yes I watched hentai on it. I could feel the tentacle from my seat Shocked As for myself, a simple 32 inch 2001 Toshiba TV with a Toshiba VCR and my X-Box 360 as my dvd player. Nothing fancy. Got an old Lazy Boy for my seat. Good ole 10 year old brown leather Lazyboy....so many memories. The cool slightly unusual part is I have a whole bookshelf (4 rows) filled with anime. That's just what I'm watching and need to watch. There's 5 boxes packed with more. Ran out of room. That and the mini fridge in my room. Can keep the beer nice and chilly right by me oh yea Twisted Evil
