        Now most people need massive TVs, but still spend most of the time looking at the small screen on the phone.

          Not me, I will refuse to watch any movie I’ve never seen on a tiny fucking phone screen. I at least have some standards

            That is one strong unit, the thought of the weight of those devices gives me back pain.

              Up to this day this is still next level. Seriously flat screen was an improvement but it ended up with people growing up TV size to a scale that is certainly not an improvement. Image quality has gotten better but what is the point of me seeing more detail in TV than in real life?

                When the TV perfectly fit the cabinet. That's when you knew.

                        I would never in a million years would consider this as "next level" unless there's a MegaDrive behind those doors under the TV.

                        EDIT: those seem like DVD cases by the stereo, so I'll have to revise my previous comment and demand either a Sega Saturn, a Playstation or a Nitendo64.

                          Especially if you had to hookup a new system or player to it.

                            Same, I got a 65 inch OLED big boy for the cinematic experience. I’m going to use the bastard.

                              That sound system stack needs at least 6 more components.

                                    Oh, I was thinking this was late 90's setup, but if that's a PS3 then it's like 10 years later... but isn't that just like a book or something?

                                      It'll be bigger than my brother-in-law's TV.

                                        I disagree, that looks like a record player. You can see the plastic cover and what looks like part of the plate on top. There's also a VCR and I doubt there were many instances of PS3s and VCRs being plugged into the same CRT. I don't doubt it happened, but this is giving more late 90s/early 2000s than mid/late 2000s

                                          I just took this photo. Is my setup next level? I RGB modded the Sony if it helps.
