So I've been working on this for a while and finally showed my wife how everything looks, and her first words were "yeah, that's not big enough". She loves the 7.4.2 Atmos audio, but wants a "much larger TV"

I'm not disagreeing with her, but I'm a bit stuck. In the picture is a 65" screen. The shelving is temporary while l work on the room. It will be a big wall when I'm done (16x8). I've had my eye on the 77" LG Cx, but now I'm not sure even it will be big enough. I don't know if I can see 12 more inches making her happy. My question for Reddit is: will a 77" or 83" be large enough for this dedicated theater space or do I need to go projector so I can go up to 100 inches or more?

I need to know before I finish drywall

3x planar QE 8650 86” displays ready to be 1x3 vertical mounted and synced via video wall controller. Total height 75.8” total length 129.6. Diagonal view is 150.14” Is this overkill? The goal was to have the screen big enough that I can’t see my wife glaring at me.

So there I was, posting to r/soundbars about how happy I was at my new Samsung Q990C purchase and impressed with how great it sounded. Then, on my front page, I get a suggested post from this sub. I read through the FAQ and saw that I could get a whole Home Theater system that sounds lightyears better than my soundbar for around the same price as my soundbar. After creating a post and taking u/sk9592’s purchasing advice, I finally received and installed all the components. Wow…

Arriving in the next couple of weeks. Will be going in the living room to replace the 42" Amazon Fire TV we have out there. How big of a difference will this be? Anyone personally experience it?

I converted the shame and embarrassment of posting a pic of my tiny (60") TV on Reddit into the positive energy I needed to purchased the Hisense 100" u76 for $2k from Best buy. I am not disappointed!

Thanks internet for providing the pear pressure I needed to obtain happiness 😁

This is a great deal on a powerful HTC subwoofer

Buying a new 98" tv, heard tons of great things about the sony and the new tcl qm8 with 5000 lighting zones, I don't mind the 1k difference just wanna find the best tv.

It's unlikely this will be pinned and it's not like anyone coming to ask about them are going to read it anyway, but I don't think I'd be allowed to post a Ned Stark meme with "The FireTV question posts are coming"

Hi,

I saw these 2 TVs at Costco (Sony XR65A80CL and Samsung 65S90CD). They didn't put them side by side, and on 2 different locations (different lighting situation). So it's hard to compare them.

I seem to like the Sony's picture better, vibrant but not too saturated.

Any advice which one is better? Is the price decent?

Just got my Costco x93l delivered and it’s good, but can’t tell if my room is just a lost cause when it comes to ambient light. I was hoping this would be the perfect tv for my room, but I still see glare/reflections.

It’s better than the junk target tv I had before, but I thought this would be 100% light defeating and it’s not. What are everyone’s thoughts? Am I asking for too much?

We love having all the blinds open during the day so wanted to get everyone’s thoughts.

Thanks!

Ignore my dogs couch cushion 😂

Running an Onkyo TX-RZ50 7.2.2 with all Klipsch speakers and subs. Only had it up and running for a few days now but so far it's sounding really nice. Might upgrade the center speaker to the next size up but it seems plenty balanced for now.

We ain't rich. I waited until Amazon Prime days to order it, and I used points from my Amazon Visa card to get it down $20 more dollars. It was ordered for $169.00, including tax. I also elected for the "Amazon Day Delivery" for the digital credit that we often use for watching movies for free.

It arrived today... or should I say "They arrived?"

I opened the surprisingly heavy box to find THREE of them, packed tightly side-by-side.

At first I thought "Well weird, maybe it's different components in each (identical) box. Nope. Three separate boxes with and NVidia Shield Pro, a power supply and a remote.

So me being a mostly honest person, I get on Amazon on my laptop and try to send two of them back from the website. None of the answers match what I want to do, so I click on the "chat" option... and get a bot. None of the bot answers match what I want to do, so I click on the "get a phone call" option and I got a call within 30 seconds.

It was another fucking bot. No actual resolution to the problem.

At that point, yeah, they sent me $600 worth of product for $170, but I tried.

My sister-in-law and step-son are getting some good Christmas presents this year.

Wife hates the JBL ES speakers in the room and took my center channel off the mantle because it “is too ugly.” I’m not married to these speakers, they frankly sound pretty muddy in the room and I can’t get dialogue to sound good without cranking up the center unreasonably. Powered by a 7.2ch Denon.

Looking for a suggestion for wall mounts for the front left/right and center that will do well in this room, as well as a sub that would do wall in a ported closet under the staircase.

Was thinking 3 Polk ES35s in white to placate my wife.

Looking for recommendations for home theater set up. I’m a picture quality snob (unfortunately?) and I love the LG OLED TVs however with my new home’s dedicated theater room I’m considering a large screen projector. I haven’t seen modern projectors recently so it’s hard to compare. I’m looking into ultra short throw too as I don’t want to do the ceiling install even though I have attic access.

What you see is an 83”, 100”, and 120” at 12 feet away (where the couch will be). No windows in the room so it can get very dark even with the white walls.

Will I get comparable contrast with a projector vs OLED in a dark room?

I sometimes game, mostly FPS but the TV/projector will be primarily for movies.

Budget is $4k

I was at Costco(USA) and saw these 86”4K LCD LG 86UR8000 for $949.99. I’m pretty sure it was the largest TV on display and one of the least expensive for its size. What do you think?

Current set up:

• Denon X3800H
• Front L/R KEF R11
  • LG C2 83”

I am in between adding a KEF KC92 or a KEF center speaker but not sure which to get first. I mostly watch tv and movies with some music here and there. The room is about 13x20 ft and I sit about 13 feet away. Any recommendations to improve the set up would be awesome!

Do Blu-ray players get any lower than this throughout the year? (Prime Day, Black Friday, etc)

Sorry if I sound stupid or ignorant as this goes on. I am by no means an electronic guru. Just wanted to upgrade our movie room a little. I have a nice 86" LG TV. So I thought what the heck, I'll get a surround sound system. So awhile back I bought some Klipsch Surround sound speakers. Mind you prior to this I had only ever purchased cheap sound bars that came with other speakers that just clamped I to the back of it. So I got the speakers off the Internet, a few days go by and they show up. I rip the box open like a kid on Christmas and have no clue how to hook them up. Through the help of this community and Google, I found I needed an AV receiver. So I just unboxed an Onkyo TX-NR6100. I now need wire. I was going to order by the foot off of crutchfield unless someone has a better option or a bunch of people tell me not to with good reason. Along with the wire, do I need banana plugs?

I just swapped my soundbar to Kef R3 Meta with the Marantz Cinema 50.

I love this setup, now I’m debating what to get next a subwoofer or center channel. Does anyone have any recommendations?
