Instead of a headphone jack, an audio monitor output would work as well. All you would need is an inexpensive volume control if the audio monitor output wasn't variable (most are not).

As for the new 120Hz technology, make sure you spend some time evaluating the "look". I have read numerous threads about this technology and many people have come to the conclusion that it begins to look artificial after they have spent some time with it, despite thinking it was the shit/awesome/cool in the early stages of the evaluation.

Note that I'm referring to the interpolation function: the creation of additional images that didn't exist before, not the proper 120Hz derived from repeating each 24p frame 5 times to get 120 frames per second. I'm sure many of the 120Hz models, even if they can accept 24p, are using 3:2 to get 60 and repeating each frame twice to get 120. I don't remember the model number, but Sony does have at least one model that does it properly.

Why deprive yourself of the best High Definition video and audio available to the consumer?
