^We can easily setup a good home theatre in 24 lakhs.Still we would save enough $ for a high end pc & cell phone.

devil_me · 01-11-2007, 10:49 PM

If you go for a very good brand like sony. you could make one for not more than 2 lakhs including the speaker setup. for a Bose audio one.. take it for 5 lakhs.
Holy cow.. What am I talking.. Even 5 lakhs is more.. 1 Lakh is more than enough for my home.. THe best one from sony.. I dont want gigascreens out there.

I've seen this display at av revolution. Check this link: Pics I took at Times AV Revolution . Its the third image from the top.

Btw you guys think that 74" is big. Wonder what you'll say when you see a 104" display. When i saw it at the expo, i felt like camping right in front of it and never leave.
