Re: hdtv setup wit 360

just use the HDMI xbox 360, gives the best picture ,....get a cheap black stand with the arm to mount your plasma to give it that wall mounted look. that arm allow's you to hide the 360 wires.....

similar to this.......

Re: hdtv setup wit 360

whatever's more economical for you .the orginal cables give you the great picture. It mainly depends on the TV. If it gets 1080p and you want the best picture you should use the HDMI adaptor you showed me. IF it only gets 1080i and 720p..then the orginal cable is the way to go.

they have a arcade 360 with the HDMI built in. You might want to check the trade value of your 360 add the 60 bucks your going to spend on that adaptor and see if you can just get the xbox with the built in HDMI.

but like i said it all depends on what your TV can do.

hope that helps man



being your in college and don't own the place you might want to stick with the stand. Unlike big jew it gives you more flexability to move it where ever and you don't have to patch up wall's.

Re: hdtv setup wit 360

thanks for the feedback...it goes to 1080p so that would mean that i would have to get the hdmi converter and hdmi cable right? well we r gonna use our bp table for right now hahahaha but that sucks ...wut bout the tv issue do i have to ask my cable or dish company bout hd for tv?

i havent seen mine yet...but def go to ur local walmart and get this tv for 547it has 30,000:1 contrast ratio and i saw it hookd up nice at walmart it was really really sweet...i got mine for 500 cuz my friend a manager and gave me open box price ahahahah

LOL.. here is the scoop... some tvs come with builtin HD TUNERS! for example.. you can take the reugalur coax cable and connect to the the tv and hed HD DIGITAL CHANNELS! BUT it will only give you basic local channels. NO CHANNLES ARE TRANSMITTED IN 1080p. The only was you can get 1080p quality !!! WITH A BLUERAY DVD and a HD 1080p TV or through ps3 games! if you want want all the HD CHANNELS not basic. you will need a HD RECIEVER FROM YOUR CABLE PROVIDER. if you use Directtv! then you need DIRECT HC RECIEVER AND HD ANTENNAS... this would be for more then basic and local channels. For example. ESPN, PREMUIM CHANBELS, DISCOVERY, ETC. MAKE SURE YOU TELL THE YOU WANT HDMI OUTPUT ALL ALL RCIEVERs!!

Re: hdtv setup wit 360

I get pretty in form but like you said you do it for a living.

but the 81 model of the samsung goes up to 500,000 ratio..
i can get the facts about samsung taking the AOLED reins and running. 1mil ratio.
yeah sony the only out at the moment.
