I've got a 40" Samsung LCD that I use as a computer monitor. I run all my media off my pc, so I use some logitech 5.1 surround speakers with it. Cheap as hell, but you'll never get better sound for the money (they were free)
Only problem is with wiring the rear speakers, the cables aren't long enough, and I haven't had a chance to run wires through my walls yet.
I dunno, the TV's in a corner, so that makes surround sound hard to set up.

Green doors, green carpet, pink couches, bleached wood sticker furniture with an oak built-in shelf. And a bad ass TV.

No furniture and no wall decor, and a bad ass TV.


I miss my batchelor pad.
 
For the living room I got a Sony Bravia 46", PS3, Phillips surround sound (I live in an apt so I can barely use it) and also my computer hooked up to it for those Youtube nights with my buddies and in the Bedroom I have the 40" version of the same TV.

anyway, moving soon and roomies just bought a 46inch sammy lcd and gonna pair it with my onkyo ht-5100. and hopefully throw in a ps3 or a htpc soon for some 1080p goodness. major upgrade from what we are running now.
 
Sony 50" HD tv
Onkyo reciever with HDMI switching.
PS3 for blurays
Sony DVD that handles up converting (as does the PS3) (dvd player came first)
Niles repeater system.
Harmony 880 remote
HDMI switcher box so I can handle up to 7 HDMI inputs
xbox 360 for some gaming when it's not broke.
Sony book shelf speakers in the rear, floor stand speakers in the front and a center speaker in the front.

Everything is hidden thanks to the repeater system.
 
32" Sony Plasma, 2 years old, and an older Techtonics Home theater system... nothing speshial, we run DVD's off my laptop to TV LMAO!
 
I'm running a 36" old school 150 pound TV, and a $300 surround system that came in a box. But I have furniture and wall decor. I'm happy with it.. Its not huge or HD, but it gets the job done. When this TV dies, I'm going to get a 40something inch samsung.. Whatever fits in the hole that my current TV is in. But the old 36 is a trooper, has been for the last 6? years. I don't forsee a TV purchase in the near future.
 
mines a mix of old a new stuff so here we go....

-Sanyo 26" LCD/HD tv
-Magnavox MWD 7006 dvd player
-JVC RX-6010V receiver
-Pioneer floor speakers
-Jenson book shelf speakers
-Optimus 12" subwoofer
