I'm a Sony and Apple man at heart too. I especially like your TV and stand. Where did you get the stand?
|

I like the entire setup. I have a Sony Bravia 32 inch LCD. I am very interested in your stand. Information please.

The 40'' Bravia is a hella nice TV set.
|
|
|
Really nice setup  But I thought you should never place anything on speaker or subwoofer boxes because it affects the sound
|

Sweet!

Very very nice! But you really should buy some real woofers, the sony are great but HP sucks!
|

B-E-A-UTIFUL setup! But get a nicer cd tower and plant!

The stand came from Sevenoaks Sound and Vision (UK). It was the last one in the shop, so took it from the shop floor without packaging. I don't actually know who makes it. It set me back around £300.

Why VGA and not DVI to the Bravia? I am thinking about hooking up my 32 inch Bravia with a Mac mini, Also, do you use the mac mini for DVDs and is the quality good?
|

I think the vase and the flower located on top of your subwoofer will fall to the floor as soon as you watching action movies... if you know what i mean.
|
|
|
hahaha, what kind of movies are you watching?
|
|
|
If I use DVI to HDMI the picture will suffer from post processing and I will only be able to get HD resolutions (720P,1080i). DVD's look good... well, as good as they can I guess

How's the VGA connection performing because the one thing thats setting me back from using an HDLCD TV as a monitor is that the bravias I'm looking at only do VGA. What is the difference between DVI and VGA? Does the VGA connection give out good enuff picture for movies and jus general use? So many questions...

What do you do with the keyboard and mouse? I assume they are wireless - do you have to have a board or flat surface to use the mouse while using the Mac Mini with the TV?

|
What type of stand please? Is it Sony? Link please. I have the 32" Sony Bravia. Thanks.

Eddie, I recently got a 73" Mistu rear pro and hooked it up to my MacBook Pro using a DVI to HDMI cable. Looked great. And for whoever asked about stands. If you are looking for a decent AV stand, check out http://www.bdiusa.com not cheap but you defintely get what you pay for.
