Super-Mega-Ultra-High-Def

Okay, so Barco's 56-inch LC-5621 LCD is meant for corporate and defense environments, but it's a home-theater maven's dream. Priced at $42,000, the LC-5621's quad-HD (3840 by 2160) resolution means you can watch really high-definition movies (if you can find any), or up to four 1080p video feeds simultaneously, thanks to its two dual-link DVI ports. A 176-degree viewing angle means there's plenty of room to sprawl in front of the screen, and a 6.5ms gray-to-gray response time means images will look good even if you're watching the Spider-Man movie while someone else is playing the video game. Now that's family entertainment.
