The JVC LCoS I bought was the JVC HD61FH96 which doesn't have the speaker "ears" like the Sony does. I've always been a Sony man and have XBR sets going back 20 years but the looks of those speakers killed my opinion of the current sets. There's new models always coming around and I hope that the designers at Sony trim those things off.

Here's that JVC 1080p set for $3175 (+70 delivery)
