Cyron backlight - Blu-ray Forum

Does somebody already order these backlight ? Are they any good? Should I go with another better product from this company, or go with another brand ?

My tv is 32'' so it's hard to decide if I should go with the 9'' pack or the 15'' pack

Uberbot does.

MetalHead84 · 03-06-2009, 08:36 PM

Damn it looks very nice

I have this but I got the one that comes with 6 light bars.. I like it quite a bit.. it cycles through quite a few colors and you can hit pause to keep it on any color you like or switch at anytime to something else.

They are worth it ! Makes the viewing experience much better !

MetalHead84 · 03-06-2009, 08:56 PM

Another question, how are they holding on the TV ? From what I see in the picture, there is 2 holes in each clip, like for screw..

crazyBLUE · 03-06-2009, 09:00 PM

They have the 2small holes for screws & they come with 2 sided sticky tape !
I use the sticky tape to hold mine on!!

MetalHead84 · 03-06-2009, 09:06 PM

Is it better to place them horizontaly or vertically ? Or is it a matter of taste?

It goes without saying that I love these lights. I also purchased and recommend the 6 pack which can usually be found for under $100 on places like Amazon.

I posted a little bit about the setup at this link. I hope it helps!!

I too own the Cyron Lighting... after seeing Uberbot's I had to get some of my own. I also got the 6 pack from eBay for $75 shipped. If you need to see some photos, check out my gallery!

I'm looking to upgrade to some LED lights. Are Cyron the best lights bang for your buck?

they are good, however the dioders from ikea are also excellent and they cost 50 for a set of 4 and can change to multiple colors

Yea, that's what I'm using, have them mounted on to my B&Ws, about to get another set for my TV. $50 for a set of four.

BUT! I don't use them for any other time except for music playing when I have people over/cleaning the house/doing coursework/regular work/cooking, etc. Not for movies at all.

SeanMF · 03-11-2009, 01:54 AM

I'll be ordering the 6 pack as my back lighting after seeing Uberbot's setup.

They're hot stuff, I really do need to get another set. Right now. lol. Since I traded in my Philips Ambilight LCD for the Kuro I've lost out on that silly albeit cool feature.

tilapiah6 · 03-11-2009, 02:09 AM

Yeah, it's hard to watch stuff after watching stuff with backlights.

tlmaclennan · 03-11-2009, 03:35 AM

Hey crazyBLUE, I'm curious why you don't have a set of lights on the bottom of your TV. I know you have your center speaker and the stand below...well at least you did before you switched to using the floorstanding speaker as a center! Anyways, do you not have a light on the bottom because the speaker is in the way?
