I could tell you, but I dont know at the moment... Fact is, it wouldn't help you cause it's designed for TVs up to 50". Believe it or not, I bought it at Wal-Mart, but they didn't have one like it for anything bigger than a 50 incher. And yeah, we have the same TV except for the size, I love it.

damn too bad Ill have to think of something else. Ya the TV is awesome, The only one out there that I think might be better is the pioneer, but it's almost double the price which is crazy.

Question For People With Hdtv's

When I Play my xbox360 on hd i dont get any sound only get sound whens its on ****ty normal.
Ps3 works fine thanks to the hdmi cable, so decided to go buy an official 360 hdmi cable to get home and for it not to fit

Lol been like this for like 8 months now any help would be appreciated

I'm having trouble understanding your issue. If you connect your Xbox360 via HDMI then you should get picture and sound through your TV. There's only 1 type of HDMI cable (unlike DVI) so any HDMI cable will fit (it can't not fit). If you want sound through an A/V receiver or something else, you need to use the special audio out plug that goes into the normal A/V out on the console at the same time the HDMI cable is connected, but it only has 2 channel audio out (or digital out) which would go to the A/V receiver.

No the hdmi cable i bought doesnt fit. Even though its an official xbox product which was annoying

. i even tried the hdmi cable i got with my ps3 but that doesnt fit in either, ps3 works fine but with xbox im using my
Component Hd Av Cable. When i switch to Hd i only get the picture not the sound when i switch to av i get a crap picture with sound .

Are you sure your Xbox looks like the first image, not the second?

The first has an HDMI port, the second does not.

I've ever seen products that use HDMI type a cables, but some do use type c. Refer to this image. A is the larger, C the smaller.

There is a type B that looks just like type A just wider but I've never seen it used anywhere before.

Mines is the second

i always thought they all came with hdmi slots i thought the thing above the ethernet port was it

.

The pictures are not quote complete...

First, there's another shelf (tower) that goes on the left, but I had to exchange it because of some defect when I purchased it.

Only the TV is there, I'll post another picture after I set up everything else.

And here you can see part of the sofa and the front home theater speakers...

It includes/will include...

Phillips 42' Ambilight LCD Screen.
Canton 5.1 channels Home Theater Speakers.
Sony STR-DG910 Home Theater Receiver - HDMI to TV.
Xbox 360 - 1080p via Component cable through receiver.
PlaySyation 3 - 1080p via HDMI through receiver.
Wii - native resolution via composite cable through receiver.
Toshiba HD-A2 HD-DVD Player - 1080i via HDMI through receiver.
Zune - via Zune A/V Cables through receiver.
HD DVR - HDMI through receiver.
Harmony 880 Universal Remote.

I'm also thinking of bringing my computer to the setup, not sure yet though.

Liam Clark, the second one is an hdmi port and all hdmi fits the same across the board, I have no Idea what you have that does not fit but all 360s that were made this year were suppose to have HDMI.
I have an older model.

as far as set up goes I have a Hitachi 57 inch HD rear projection with a Pioneer 7.1 750 watt elite receiver. I will be upgrading to a Mitsubishi 65 inch DLP when I get my check from uncle sugar in may ( thats the government or George Dub ya for you foreigners ) in May. I have a PS3 for Blu-ray and the add on for the 360 for HDDVD.
