Yeah, that's definitely true, although with certain types of electronics high weight can reflect the use of a substantial PSU, which is usually associated with equipment capable of top-notch performance :)

You really are going to town arent you! :) Sounds like it will be a great setup especially with the mains treatments. A lot of people diss speaker and mains cables, claiming they make no difference, but they do. Its not a sweeping difference, but finer elements are 'dialed in' - althougt never played around with them much in terms of AV stuff other than power cables.
I think the whole cinematic sound should never be expected from a TV - its not a cinema, its just a telebox, I always feel as long as the sound is clear, with a good frequency range and depth then that is all that is needed/expected - as you are doing, want bigger, go bigger with the amp and speakers. I love running s film through my Hifi, the Peachtree Dac is amazing, but the speakers are a very warm variant, so it takes the edge off those atypical cinema shrieking high trebles.
One downside I have found is the power cable on mine is integrated, so I cant use my Black Rhodium one which showed a marked improvement on clarity when used with the Panasonic. Not the end of the world as the picture really is that good!
The silver bezel is still bugging me majorly though, Im not sure I can live with it full time, its like having a 65" picture frame when its turned off.
Stick some black tape over it. Sure you can find something nice.
Sound wise, i used to have a av system and although it was very good, i found it took me away a bit from the pictures, so disposed of it. Quite like the sound from a telly now; it just feels right
Yes ive used Vinyl wrap before on my cars and I was toying with the idea, but running a scalpel blade that close to the lcd panel scares the life out of me, but it is possible, I do have a friend who is a surgeon, they might be better with that blade. Its an idea.
Tape is a definitely no no, I like a bit of style , rag and bone man is not my thing :)
I'd hope so....
You've got me looking at tellys on Amazon now. Did you know you can get an 85 incher? I remember renting a 28 inch Hitachi in about 1992 and thinking I'd arrived. How times change. when I cancelled the rental in about 1999 I asked them if they wanted to sell it to me. 'Yes we can do that, it will be £450' - yeah, in your dreams mate.
my 37" LCD Toshiba Regza circa 2007 still does a grand job. It does 1080p and you can now pick them up for £50 - £80. Cost me £850 back then... lol
What a fool I was. Never doing that again I can tell ya.
Optimum size used to be 37" where you got best of everything... I would think that has increased now though what with hd. But sd stuff can look poor on big screens so personally i would stick at about the size Marco got.. 43" is big enough for anyone imo. Wish i had one :eyebrows:
Honestly the 32 ive got from where i sit, about 10 ft is big enough. I used to have a 37 and it was big. I kinda like a big bezel too
Yeah... ours has a thick bezel, about 1 1/2" all round. It's nice as it frames it.
The big jobbie TV's I've seen in Curry's :rolleyes: have always impressed me but knowing that they depreciate soooooo much I just can't justify the price tag.
Same with a lot of consumer electronics I guess.
lol 43" is big enough, considering 4K resolution is not able to be seen properly on a 43", its definitely not big enough! :) Although my dad complained about getting a 47" then realised how much better it was, now he is on the convincing trail for a 55".
I think 55" is the limit as to when they stop being tv's and room additions, once you step over that boundary you end up with whole entities in the room with you.
I am having second thoughts this 65" , its giving me a headache, its that big. I mean, faces are bigger than real people and you have to look in two places instead of seeing the whole image. I always thought I say on the back row at the cinema as to hopefully see some action ;), but no it was because sitting too close gave me headaches.
Oops.
