I'm gonna blow a gasket!!!!!! Please read / help.

Posted by IM4UMIA (A) on January 27, 2004 at 18:00:41

We just purchased a home with the perfect family room for surround.
With the boys off to college, and after 24 years of marriage, I finally have the Mrs. permission to build my dream A/V room.

I have selected Vandersteen surround speakers, which is pretty much a lay up given sound quality-to-price ratio. But the video selection is making me bonkers..................

I have $5,000 to spend on the set. I've researched, and researched until I'm blue in the face and cannot for the love of Mike make a decision. Virtually everything I look at has reviews range from WOW! to 'I get dizzy when I watch it'!

I'm afraid to move.

Here's what I'm considering:

Mitsubishi WS55711 55" CRT
Hitachi 57S700 57" CRT

Samsung HLN617W 61" DLP (no HD tuner)

Hitachi 60V500 60" LCD (no HD tuner)
Sony KDF60XBR950 60" LCD

Is there a front runner? Or do I throw a dart?

Thanks all!
