Man Cave Must Haves

This is one of the finest TVs I have had a chance to review. Samsung in my option has made some of the best TVs around. LED is the newest technology to come around. And Samsung does one hell of a job with it. The current price on Amazon is 2400.00. The price is outstanding for a 55 inch LED TV. The TV offers 4 HDMI inputs, only 1 component, 2 USB, 1 Ethernet, 1 PC, 1 optical digital audio output and Auto Motion Plus 240Hz technology for picture quality. The Medi@2.0 lets you enjoy more with Internet TV, allowing you to receive content via Yahoo!, Flickr, and more via on-screen TV widgets and one slick feature. If you’re like me you sank about 3 grand in your last TV a few years ago and trying to tell your wife you need a new TV might be a tough sell. So take her to your local best buy and show her this TV. Then of course go home and save your self a couple hundred and buy it from Amazon. This TV has one of the best pictures around and the smallest foot print I have ever seen in a TV this size. The sound generated for the speaker is almost better  than the Bose system I reviewed a few days ago. So if you can talk your wife into a new TV check some of the new LED TV from Samsung. The 55 inch model gets 5 out of 5.

It’s time folks!! We all have a TV in our Man Cave but how many of us have a nice wall projector for that great Cave Theater experience? Well it’s time to review a few of the beasts and see what all the outside world has to offer. I like to call it our own little slice of Man Cave Heaven.

A common misconception when it comes to projectors is they cannot get the resolution that a normal TV can get. This is not true at all. You can easily find quite a few projectors that get just as high of resolution as your favorite Big Screen TV (Full 1080p) at half the cost. Plus with the right environment you can get a picture that is twice the size of the biggest TV’s! One thing you do have to keep in mind when buying a projector is what kind of lighting do I have in my Man Cave? The reason you need to ask yourself this question, is how much light you have in the room WILL reflect on a projectors picture quality! Luckily most of us like our Man Caves nice and dark so it shouldn’t be to big of a problem. Next up are our reviews of some of the best projectors out there for your buck!

Amazon is my favorite place to buy electronics and other random things. Usually when I am shopping for, well, almost anything, I start out by going to Best Buy, HH Gregg or even Wal-Mart, and  then I come home and buy that item from Amazon at a much lower price most of the time. One of my other favorite web sites is htmarket.com. This website has given me some great ideas. They can be a bit pricey but often have great deals and great coupons sent to your email.

These two companies have everything that you can think of when making a Man Cave. HTmarket has great bundle deals that meet any budget.  An item to check out is the Buttkicker. It mounts inside your sofa or chair and gives you a different movie or gaming experience every time it hits. The Buttkicker starts out at about $430.  Still, I recommend searching for anything you consider buying on Amazon’s site first to find the best deal, but between these two web sites you can get plenty of ideas and in most cases save some money.

     So I got to thinking about all he TV’s on the market and I thought, “WOW there’s a lot of TV’s out there!”. So what are your friends here at MCMH.com gonna do? You guessed it, we’re gonna run a four part series on each different type of TV! So grab your favorite gaming chair and popcorn and let’s get down to what you need to enjoy the best Man Cave Media experience for your own budget (We’ll talk about what’s not in your budget too, but that’s what dreams and second mortgages are for!).

Part one of the series is going to be all about LCD so get stoked and hit the read link for the whole story!!

Being a life long cable television subscriber, I do not have a lot of experience with Dish.  I am impressed with the innovations cable has seemed to pioneer in the last few years, but still feel that the cost does not justify the product.  Currently I have two DVRs, Premium Cable, and High-Speed Internet, and I pay $120 a month.  Is this comparable to Dish? Am I getting the most bang for my buck?  Should cable or Dish be Man Cave Approved?  You tell me.
