    Default how big is your..............

    TV?

    My family and friends think i am the only person in the world to a big fat old fashioned tv.lol.

    So now i am earning a bit more i thought i would make them all happy and update it. the sound on it is rubbish anyway and is getting worse.

    Its not got a huge screen but is big enough for me and my little room, i think its about 22".

    I am just debating wether or not to get a bigger screen or stick with a simialr size as i dont want it to dominate the room.

    Just wondered how big is everyone elses?

    we've got a 32 inch i think but its an 'old' box one - don't like the picture you get on a fat screen and they seem so unstable - plus a waste of money,mine cost a fiver off ebay!

    Think ours is 32" - its a flat screen & when we first got it to replace our box one we both hated it!! It seemed massive, but we're used to it now & I love it. I love the fact that it doesn't take up hardly any room

    Got 42" flat screen in living room, got a good deal in costco, so moved 32" box one into conservatory, (it is probably a bit big for the floor space in there, but cant justify buying a flat screen to go on the wall), well not yet anyway!

    We've got a 32" lcd flat screen (Sony Bravia). I thought it was a bit big at first, but it's slimness seems to make it less obvious than the huge old tv we had (I hate the fact that these days the TV is often the focal point of most peoples front rooms). When we were looking and comparing TV's we found the picture quality on the smaller ones didn't seem as good as the larger ones. Also we got the 32" for the same price that shops were charging for 23 and 26" ones. They said in the shop that it was because the turnover on 32" ones was much higher than the smaller ones so they could be more competitively priced.
    We got ours from Marks and Spencers online. They gave us a 5 yr warranty for free and they delivered and installed it for free (and at the time they were £50 cheaper for the same model than any other retailer)

    We have a 50" LCD on the wall above the fireplace, my mindees went home and asked their dad to get them one like it I think its too big, but having a TV on the wall frees up a lot of floor space and is safer when the mindees a getting a bit excited.

    Goodness mine seems quite miniscule compared to all yours . Its only 26" i think and not a flat screen . I thought that was huge when we first had it ( in fact i had a headache for days ) i don't know if i could cope with anything larger !!

    32".

    We have found that unless you are sitting far enough away with anything bigger the screen looks very pixelated,so unless you have a long lounge we have found a smaller one to be great.
