I finally got myself a PS3 and after hooking it up to my old 32" philips TV, i realized i need a TV upgrade. my budget is under 800, lower the better.
the models im considering so far are:
32"
Costco - Vizio 32" 1080p LCD HDTV
37"
Costco - $719.99 after $80 OFF Vizio 37" 1080p
I'm thinking 32" due to the price but i like the 37" cus its bigger. Then again, my parents need a new TV so I might get both, one for my room and one for my parents.
So if anyone has a Vizio can you tell me if its worth it or not?
thanks

The 32" in the garage is hooked up to my Yamaha home theater system that I bought 6 years ago, for the extra level of game day.:lol:

I am biased to Yamaha so that's all I looked for. Try The last link. J&R.com have real good prices, and also have product that has been repaired very cheap. I bought my second DVD player from them for the garage when the stock one I bought took a dump. It works awesome.fins4o8 likes this. -

I prefer Onkyo to Yamaha, but both are very good companies.
I would go with the 37" btw.fins4o8 likes this. -

I bought into Ensignia, which is basically BEST-BUY brand. It has been nice, but starting to think I shouldve bought a VISIO. Have a buddy with a larger (Think its a 50" like mine) and for the buck it is very very nice...
Interestingly enough, I have had nothing but VERY GOOD luck on returns from Costco.
ON a sidenote, I dont know how it is where others live, but everty CostCo I have ever been in is completely run by hot-chicks...coeeenkydink? I think NOT!!!!fins4o8 and Fin Fan In Cali like this. -

Vizio is a very decent budget brand tv. Not as good as Samsung or Sharp but if you dont want to shell out top of the live cash its what I would get.

I got a vizio about 6 weeks ago. The 32 lcd doesnt have any RCA audio output. It only has optical output for audio. Make sure your sound system accepts that. Mine didnt, mine Philips dvd/surround sound system only takes RCA.
P.S. Thanks Pete for that link. I've been looking for a good price on this adapter. link -
Every day above ground, is a good day!:up:
BTW, that post was in no way intended to be boastful. More a condemnation on todays broadcast content.
You know what they say about a fool and his money. lol
I've always been a tech junkie for A/V equipment. Even before the long awaited marriage between the two. I can remember discovering (in the late 60s) that if I tuned my parents old Curtis Mathis console receiver to 88kh fm, I could pick up TV channel 6 CBS out of Orlando and listen to decent quality audio while watching the TV broadcast. -
