Hey, that\'s awesome man. I would love to play SSX on a projector! I don\'t have a digital camera though... But I just have my PS2 connected to my 28" B&O TV. No surround or anything like that.
-
Whoa you have a B&O TV those are top quality how much did it cost?
In my room I have a 20" Samsung.Don\'t need any bigger cuz the thing is close to my bed.But in the future I might buy s bigger model.Probly Sony or Philips.
-
Well nO-One, I just used an online currency converter. The TV costs $1,888.40 USD. But I didn\'t pay for it, my parents did! ;)
-
Ahh I see is one of those kick ass models with all sorts of nifty features.Where I work we used to have B&O TV which came on it\'s own stand with a built in VCR and you could make the TV rotate by pressing a button on the remote.
-
I see 2 TVs in your pic one diaplaying SSX and the other one I think its Madden(or just a football game).Do you own 2 PS2?
-
No, that was the bucs kicking some Cowboy ass today!!!! I have two PS2s, but only one is hooked up. The other is going to a cousin...
What does B&O stand for?
My projector is a Sony VPH 1271.. It\'s fun. I\'m not mounting it in this house that\'s why it\'s on the floor. I am waiting till my next house to make a dedicated room for it..
-
B&O stands for Bang&Olufssen they make really expensive really cool looking and sophisticated products.
-
i\'ve heard of b&o b\'fore, their stuff is suposta be cool looking. wat is their website? if any of you guys know it.

For the same reason I\'m not mounting the projector on the ceiling, I\'m not mounting a screen. I\'ve just got the wall painted white. I\'m only projecting at 96 inches so I don\'t really need the extra reflectiveness of the screen. Sure it would probably look better, but they are expensive as hell..
I knew B&O was Bang and Olefson, I thought you were talking about the projector. That\'s why it didn\'t register in my head.. No, the speakers are all Infinity.. That\'s my next upgrade.. The only problem is that in order for me to get better sounding speakers, I need to spend major cash-olah....
I tried playing SSX on my 27" the other day on 4:3... It\'s funny how you get so use to the big screen. It really kicks butt for video games.. Madden is awesome..
I am only using the red,white, and yellow analog cables right now. I took my Optical out the other day and put it back into my DVD player. Until Playstation comes out with a DD game it makes more sense. I only have one Coax and one Optical input so I may one day use my DVD with the Coax and the PS2 with the optical, but I\'ll wait till then to do that.. I am going to get the S-Video cables, I just haven\'t gotten to the store yet. That 27" tv only has standard rca inputs though so if I change to S-Video I can\'t use the tv.. But why would I, right????

Heh... Pretty cool stuff!
I have Sony\'s TV ( not widescreen.. 32 inches ) wich the PS2 is plugged in. Then I have Sony\'s stereo\'s; quite old ones but who cares?
They still pass a great experience trough the video-gaming world and they bite up my time like nothing else ( but posting here ;))
-
I need to borrow someone digital Camera. I think my moms\'s has a digital camera, a crappy one though.
I will try to get pics tonight and post them tommorow. I will either try and find this thread or start another. I have a pretty fat set-up. Not as nice as videoh. Err well Im not a big fan of projection, they look nice, I just like the screen of a TV better.
I will show you, stand by......:nut:
-
I only use the projection for movies and now the PS2. Oh, I almost forgot football. But that\'s about it.. Movies look fantastic since you can make use of the anamorphic discs. I also have a laptop that I can play DVDs on. That\'s why use see the 5 bnc plugs hanging out of the back of the unit. Watching a DVD with progressive scan is fantastic. No scan lines at all. It kicks butt.

Videoholic:
A friend of mine just emailed me and said that the docs for the PS2 say it "may cause harm to projection TVs". Is this true? I don\'t have access to my book right now. I was hoping to hook it up to my projection unit as well.
Thanks!
-
I think projection units are more suseptable to burn in, but for a normal human being you won\'t have a problem since you won\'t be playing the same game 24 hours a day for months straight. I think years ago that was definitely the case, but I don\'t know. I\'ve had mine hooked up to playstation for a couple years now and I haven\'t had a problem at all.

Oh, the problem could be with burn-in! That makes sense. Sounds like Sony threw that in there as a CYA disclaimer just in case some dodo-brain left the PS2 turned on for months, sitting on the same screen the whole time.
Glad to know you didn\'t have any problems. :)
-
thanx samwise. that will help me out a lot in the near future when i put a home theatre system together.
-
Wow love the setups, I haven\'t a Digicam
But hopefully will get one, at present i have a 28inch widescreen, DTS SS, and a small cabinet.
any suggestions what Cam to buy.
-
Sorry to bring up an oldish tread, but I got a digital camera today and I wanted to show you all my setup. :)
Beware - picture heavy!

What up peeps? I got my PS2, DVD player, Dreamcast, and 5.1 surround system all nestled nicely under my 32" TV, in one of those cabinets. Its nice! Nothing like jacking up the sound and playing Madden 2001 with surround sound! Who agrees?
-
two psx2\'s???? why????
-
by the looks of it with the top PS2 with 2 memory cards in it, its a JAPANESE PS2..one for the DVD driver and the other for the save games i guess
the bottom one is of course the US PS2 or the UK PS2..i dont know where he is located so i wouldnt know..
-
I\'m guessing hes in the UK since his Dreamcast has a BLUE swirl on it and not a red. But that also means he could be in Austrailia. Who knows :D
-
I dunno, I just have two, a Jap and Aus PAL one. And yeah I live in Australia.
-
wow those are some awesome setups, ok now let me explain mine since i have no digi camera, ok you see potatoes tv? well i have the exact same one, and its on a a metal set up with my seteo right above it, and the ps2 below, i am getting a dc soon, for the hell of it
-
Any new setups out there??? Would love to see what you guys are doing!
