In Reply to: How many students can fit in one WEGA? posted by Victor Khomenko on August 05, 1999 at 10:15:57:
I hadn't heard of the Samsung, so I may have to check it out. The bulky Sony (Boy, this is one ugly design! It almost killed my friend and I lifting it up onto a 36" high shelf.) sits on a homemade rack that also holds the rest of the A/V electronics. I've also got a pair of Vandersteen 2Ci's and Rat Shack LS-4's in the room, along with a lowly Denon DP-3000/SMEIII/Stanton881S turntable. What saves this room is its ample closet space. The laserdiscs are stored on 2 five-shelf racks that are a bit over three feet wide. Each rack weighs about half a ton, loaded. And I think their gravitational fields are warping space-time in my bedroom. The DVDs are in a smaller wooden rack. But the videotapes are in the living (listening) room shelves, along with the CDs; and the LP boxes are near the floor.To quote Alice Cooper: "Welcome to my nightmare!"
It is quite compact - it is only 14" deep and adds about 2" all around its 40" 16:9 screen. Also comes with a nice stand that they throw in at I believe just $75. The older analog model is fine, but the new progressive scan digital is better, but of course, more expensive: I think it lists for $3500.
