Most people within the last few year have upgraded their old “Boob tube” to a new sleek, lighter, faster, bigger, greater definition, richer color, and overall BETTER TV. Whether it be plasma, LCD, or you splurged a little for a LED or LED 3d TV, in any case, most people love the idea of HD. Sports look better, movies looks better, and even the news at ‘10 looks better. SO what does this mean for a wedding? Most wedding DJ companies out there still use connection from the 1990s including the infamous RCA or S-Video cable.

This leads to a picture that is stretched out (because of a 16:9-4:3 ratio problem) and a horrible low quality. Where-as now, just about everyone uses Component or the all-knowing, Mac-daddy of wire connections, the HDMI cable, for home connections for HD

SO….. On your wedding day, you have your DJ company with a professional photographer going around taking AMAZING candid pictures, using flash diffusers, F-stops and a bunch of other terminology that I don’t know [we're DJs, :-) ]. But whatever it is that they do, the pictures look INCREDIBLE! SO the pictures get loaded up and shown on the plasmas and here is the end result:

(the pictures have been shrunk to fit on this blog, you can click for full-size)


460p (RCA/S-Video)


720 (HDMI)


Hey Grandma, you probably won’t even need your glasses to see THAT difference!

By the way, Elite Sound just upgraded ALL of their plasma sets to full 1080 HDMI. :)

So you just booked the DJ of your dreams… With the package of your DREAMS….. With dual Hi-Def Plasmas with a professional candid photographer going around taking AMAZING candid photos of all the action going on the entire night. Everything is PERFECT. So your DJ arrives at the venue with some inexperienced roadies wearing cut-off denim shorts and wife-beater tank tops. And they take one of the plasmas out of the van, and BANG!


It falls on it’s side, and screen is SHATTERED.

Owch….

Wow. Wouldn’t have happened if your DJ had a PROPER case to transport them in!
But even a CHEAP case can result in a display-destruction-disaster!

Go the cheap route…

Now THIS is a proper case!

Now here’s a side-by-side

  • Both are cases for a 50″ plasma
  • The left one has 2″ of padding on every side, top and bottom.
  • The one on the right has 1/2″ and held in place with Elmer’s glue sticks. :-P

    So it’s not always about what you get, but HOW you get it there!

    PS, look out for those missing wheels!
