Thanks. Tough commute. I did it for four years.

Well, in my case it was 12 years in Brooklyn, 9 with the speakers in
the bathroom, and 26 in Baltimore. You're a strong man.

I liked the speakers so much I took them with me when I left the
apartment. I guess I would have had to remove them regardless,
although I didn't remove the outside shelf for the air conditioner (so
I wouldn't drop it from the fifth floor when I was putting it in or
out (like happened in Seinfeld's apartment) or the one outside the
kitchen window where I used to charcoal grill The second was only 12
inches by 16 inches. Once when I shut the window during the lighter
fluid stage, I broke the window from the heat, and one time the people
next door called to say perhaps the apartment was on fire. But the
other 20 or 30 times it worked fine.

I purchased a Samsung HDTV (model LN46A540) and am looking for
recommendations for:
- External speakers, and
- Wireless Headphones

I am not interested in a massive "home theater" but just better audio
performance than that available from the TV. I'm guessing a three
speaker system. Anyone have suggestions as to type of system, brand
suggestions or brand to avoid?

Thanks

I would just use left over stereo speakers. There may be a recession
coming.

(In my bathroom mounted on a board in the corner of the ceiling I have
a woofer/tweeter combination from a 1930's record player. Connected
to the tv and sounds pretty good. I've been using them for about 35
years, in my apt. in NY and my house near Baltimore._
