I have had a fantastic money saving idea. Buy a smaller TV and sit closer to it

If you're going for a massive TV Talal, I assume you'll be going for the full works, with surround sound etc as well1 -

One of ours is 75" and really loving it. I'll check with my other half but think is cost upwards of your budget0

Measured the distance earlier, will be roughly 13 feet from tv. Plan on getting a swivel wall mount as well so will reduce some more. Am now swaying towards 65" despite that inch calculator website saying 75" should be fine.
Also been looking at whether to get sky or virgin. Am I right in thinking virgin only offer bt sport in 4k, not sky sports channels? Does 4k even make much difference from distance?

Christ alive, I dread to think how much a 75" tv would cost.
We bought a 65" one for our log cabin last year (Sony 4k UHD, handily with Android built in for Kodi & VPN ahem cough) and that cost an arm and a leg at the time but they threw in a wireless soundbar and subwoofer which made it a little more paletteable.
I sit about 15ft away from it and wouldn't want one any bigger. Our house is on the large side and the way our 3 reception rooms are, we can just about fit a 55" in the living room but the others we've got two 42". Anything else and it
Something to bear in mind, Sky wont tell you that 4k is only with their 2TB Q box. You can't get 4k through their mini-boxes either. Which was a huge fcuking disappointment given I can only watch the football in 4k in the living room and nowhere else, which gives my wife the hump!Talal said:Measured the distance earlier, will be roughly 13 feet from tv.

13ft, full benefit of 4K = 100in screen. You best upgrade that set size not downgrade!Talal said:Measured the distance earlier, will be roughly 13 feet from tv.

Thanks yh am aware I'd have to get 2tb box (£199 install what a piss take). I'll just have to say to the missus that I've no choice but to watch it on the bigger screen given the money spent!JohnBoyUK said:Christ alive, I dread to think how much a 75" tv would cost.

Is the difference between 4k and regular hd very noticeable?0 -
"We bought a 64 inch for our log cabin... "
Shakes head.

The difference you'll get with Sky is noticeable but not outstanding. Netflix is better as a lot of their shows come in HDR as well which is generally regarded as a bigger leap over 4K.Talal said:

The best way to view 4k is with UHD BluRays. I've got Planet Earth 2 and it's absolutely stunning.2 -

Need to consider the height of it though. It'll be above a fireplace on wall and don't want to risk looking up too much (soundbar would eat into a bit of space too).cafcpolo said:

It looks like a log cabin from the outside but inside its a bit different... ideal for watching the football/cricket/sport in peace and quiet and NIL nagging from wife when she's watching her crap in the house. Doubles up as a bar/gym/photography studio and is totally soundproofed for late night parties (we had 30 people in last Christmas), turbo sessions with Metallica blasting out or screaming abuse at Tottenham on the box. We had a 40" on the wall when it was first finished and it looked ridiculously small so we upgraded.
Excuse the mess as I was in the middle of testing some wiring behind the tv as my firebox had died but you can't see any of it now.
When I'm on the turbo, I have to move the bike away from the tv as I end up with a headache from being so close to it.
(PS) before anyone mentions the pink cushions, they're back in the house now. They don't live in my man cave.
Anyway, I digress, back to TVs 7 -

We used to have a Pye, black and white, 10" TV in the 1950's.
Although I was a bit smaller then.
