No probs Fnz. There's no way to circumvent the region encoding so I had to buy a different region console.

I was over on the AVFORUMS version of this thread and saw the following :eek: :

I'm guessing you're needing a few tissues to clean up your mess .

Geez... someone should tell him/her "asked for your setup, not your life story".

Very, very nice though. Seems as though it's a gaff to look at, not live in....... or touch.

@ kensutz: I know modding the 360 may void your live subscription but could you not have just imported games and got a power adapter?

I could import games but they still won't work unless you have that region 360. And yes I have the power supplies.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for your kind comments, yes indeed they are Tanny M3's & I've M2's at the back and a Tannoy Sub, bought them a couple of years back when Hifi Corner and Richer Sounds where on the quays, the good old days

It's a 42" Panasonic Plasma, I bought from Germany. I've a page setup that I had on AVforums, you can see both PS3 & 360 Game shots.

Thanks

I posted mine in the Arcade/Retro pages, here's the link,

http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055078178

Now thats my older stuff. I have my PS2, 360 and Wii down stairs on a 37"HD set, which keeps me happy!
I'm going to get a HD set for the upstairs games room but going to limit the size to 32" as I find the bigger ones don't do the old analogue video systems, likes of sega, atari and commodore any justice.
The digital surround is up there for my modded xbox so it'll fit right in.
The room needs a serious makeover, I want proper displays for the best bits of my collection.
Also have to figure where the PS3 should go, downstairs on the 37"HD with no digital surround ir upstairs in the gamesroom with a 30"HD with digital surround, decisions decisions!

Don't you just love student accommodation :rolleyes:

My crappy TV on temporary loan to a flatmate there, I have a HDTV at home but getting it transported to the UK is more hassle than it's worth.

heres mine .... im pretty happy with it .... the pictures are pretty poxy, but games and blu ray look outstanding i have to say.

sky looks good even without HD, i wont be upgrading this because i only watch football up here, and i couldnt justify the cost .... next upgrade will be a new screen .... this one is not really up to the job

im know im pretty lucky to have this set up ... thanks to a pretty nice girlfriend i have to say .... firstly for letting me have the spare room as my den (she really thinks its her room too), and secondly for liking gadgets nearly as much as i do

the projector is an infocus IN76
receiver is a sony str-de475 (bought second hand for 100 euros .... bargain!!!
speakers are a 5.1 jamo a10's

just realised you cant even see my ps3 .... is bottom shelf on the left
