Call me old-fashioned, but I want my speakers to be big.

I also like that, but I live inside an apartments building and I also have to think about the neighbors. At least, sometimes Smiley

I don't really believe you can push 1000W through such small speakers. I want big, so it doesn't need the subwoofer for low sound.

Obviously, the 1000W is pure marketing, same as the old Altec Lansing could not deliver 500W. But they use this disclaimer: the 100W represents "the max output power" -- which is different than "Total output power" or than what we understand by "How many real Watts does it have, hombre?" Smiley Realistically thinking, I think that it may reach a total power output by 400-500W (by the way, the subwoofer is at the right side of the TV, near the balcony door).

Houses are crazy expensive at the moment.

So true...

Maybe it's because I'm a dad, but I'm missing a crucial part of this story: how was your son doing?

Good question! Thank God, he was all a smile, sitting near the broken TV, laughing. He was very proud of what he did. He was not hurt, as he stepped back quickly when he saw it moving, but this did not stop him from being proud of his achievement (facepalm again). I remember than an aunt of mine told me that when I was 3 yo I once "fished" and old clock which she had on a dressing, using a toy fishing rod (obviously, after I hooked it with the fishing rod's hook it fell on the ground and got broken, as the hook was a fragile plastic one, lol). And she always used to tell me that story like it was something shocking what I did back then. I guess nowadays kids don't fish clocks anymore, but 60" TVs Of course, I told my aunt what he did, to not be shocked anymore about her clock. So I also can't brag myself anymore with the fact that I fished that clock. My son is already way ahead, with fishing a big screen TV =))) (Curiously, I still have the power to laugh about it, although the new one left me without almost 900 euro.)

Here, furniture is either heavy, wall-mounted, or filled with lead. I know my kids.

Great decision! Big thumb up!

Our TV isn't wall-mounted. It has scratches in the screen, from my son hitting it with Duplo.

Oh, gawd...

A couple of years ago I found him standing in front of it on a table that he moved, holding the top with 2 hands, angrily shaking it and ready to pull it on top of him when I interfeared (that's not a typo, it's a word I made up because it fits better).

I sent you one merit for teaching me this word! I will also use it from now on Smiley
