Default Biggest TV in your bedroom

I need a new TV (xbox 360 just arrived ) I was looking at the sony 42" or 50" which are the rear projection LCD models at about £699 and £899 although they both work out the same price if you take in to account the smaller one doesnt come with a stand.

Due to moving house I may need to keep and use one of these in my bedroom :eek will it be far far to big or will i be able to cope for a few months?

Whats the biggest other people have in there bedroom?

We used to have a 50" Sony rear proj. it was not any deeper than the ave. 36"crt as its taller it did look big but still had enough space, its now in my daughters play room and its tight in there.
So it really depends on the size of the room.


rear proj. are good but you need to arrange the viewing angle and distance for optimum performance.

I would say it depends on the size of the bedroom, but would say 32"

Most people made do with 14" before.

Bedrooms are for ******** & sleeping!

It's the one room I have as a sanctuary against all things electronic.

(just my 2pc worth)

You could always get a 32" ceiling mounted one.

My bedroom measures 8ft by 11ft and is home to this 42" monster
I only bought it as i plan to move in with my lass soon, so i saw no point in buying a 32" which i wouldn't want in a few months That's my excuse anyway. I have no problems playing games from 6ft away
