First post here; been a long time lurker in the IIDX homemade ASC thread.
My IIDX controller that I made (took 2 days to build and about $50 in parts) and my headphones that I use it with, Audio-Technica ATH-A900's connected straight to the HDTV.
Here's a wide shot of my gaming corner of my apartment (hooray college).
And here's a shot of my console collection, part of it at least. The TV is a Samsung 27" 4:3 HDTV that I got in 2003 for about $400 at Best Buy. Since then it has broken about 4 times, but now for some reason it's back in perfect working order. It can kinda do 1080i, but it looks all distorted because of major geometry problems; I'm not going to get another Samsung TV in the future.
I play IIDX on it through the component cables and see no noticable lag compared to s-video or composite cables.
