 | Samsung LN46A650 46-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color
Buy used from: $999.12 I spent the most time trying to pick out the perfect HDTV. During this time the price dropped on this dramatically. This set also includes a total of 4 HDMI inputs which again is useful for people that will include a lot of components. The 120Hz really makes a drastic difference. You can hook this HDTV up to the internet for instant weather, stocks, or news updates.

 | Onkyo HT-S6100 7.1 Channel Receiver and Speaker Package
Buy new: $549.77 A great high quality HTIB (Home Theater In a Box). Onkyo is a top of the line producer that has made a good quality product for years. Just like every speaker system though, opt for higher grade speaker cables. At least 16 gauge. I really like the multiple HDMI outputs. Useful if you have a number of components that you will hook up to it. (I.E.: Game System, Tivo, PC, DVD/BluRay) A great buy.

 | Logitech Harmony One Advanced Universal Remote
Buy new: $246.00 This is a great universal remote. It feels natural when it rests in your hand, the button layout was well designed. Its not complicated and does a great job. There is no tricky code book to punch codes in. This remote plugs into any Mac/PC and comes with super easy to use program. I have no complaints. I went from 4 complicated remotes to the One.

 | Monster Cable MP HTS800 Home Theater PowerCenter HTS800
Buy new: $39.95 Monster Cable is a good company that I have trusted for quite some time now. Their products are a little on the higher side, price wise, but you are getting a higher quality product. If you don't like Monster I would still at least buy some type of surge protect your investment.

 | PlayStation 3 80 GB
Buy used from: $219.95 The PlayStation 3 will give you the most bang for your buck. You get one of the best Blu-Ray players out on the market as well as a gaming system. I use my PS3 to stream media from my PC, play games, and watch Blu-ray. Note that it operates via BlueTooth technology. With a $80 adapter called the "ps3toothfairy" you can use the Harmony One universal remote to control this.

![Xbox 360 Elite 120GB [Old Version]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41Df91F9%2BXL._SL75_.jpg) | Xbox 360 Elite 120GB [Old Version]
Buy new: $528.51 / Used from: $288.00 Xbox 360 is my main gaming console. While it doesn't support Blu-Ray it does have something that I use all the time. If you have a Netflix account along with a Xbox live account you can stream Netflix through the 360 to your TV. The quality is superb and depending on your internet connection there is little to no loading.

 | Wii
Buy new: $199.99 / Used from: $180.00 I bought the Wii for my girlfriend. It's pretty good for party games and when you want to take a break from all the hard core gaming from the PS3 and/or 360. It does NOT play DVDs or Blu-Ray. Kind of a draw back but the surprising ability to get you addicted makes it up.
