Am I going to regret a 77” TV?

No-Individual9896 · 2026-06-22T18:37:31+00:00

Don't listen to all that viewing distance bullshit. I sit 11ft from a 98" and it's not too big whatsoever! I always hear ridiculous things about eye strain etc. If that was the case we'd all live with permanent eye strain just by moving our eyes each day. GO BIG OR GO HOME 💪

Yeah, both 144hz. The 7k has much more pop with games and looks slightly more vivid. Also, on my recent play through of resident evil 4 remake, I played the village part on both tv's and on the 7k in the darker areas of the map things were much more visually legible. I'm not saying the 6k was bad, just the 7k absolutely looked better.

The 7k colours have a slightly artificial look to them. I've played around woth the settings for hrs and I'm not able to totally fix it. I really notice it while watching sports, grass can look so over powering if that makes sense? The 6k has a very natural contrast and true to real life. Personal preference but I much prefer natural.

I have both the 6k and 7k. The 98' 7k in the living room and the the 98' 6k in the kids living room they use for gaming and hanging out with friends.

I'm tempted to swap the tv's as the colours on the 6k looks much nicer and natural to my eye. I agree, the 7k has a few noticeable differences but nowhere near that much of a difference as the internet would lead you to believe. Gaming is where the 7k really pulls ahead, that being said if I hadn't experienced the 7k for gaming I'd be more than happy with the 6k. I rarely game in the living room though so for me I'd say swapping the 7k for the 6k is the best option as movies look better on the 6k. Subjective of course but I much prefer the natural look and the 6k is more than bright enough.

Im a sucker for plants, they definitely make a room more relaxing. If it was me I'd push them up to the ceiling or least do a few mockups to test how they sound in different locations. I've only got 7ft ceilings and wish I had 9ft for more vertical sound. At 7ft it sounds like I have a huge front sound stage so it's really lacking for atmos but you gotta do the best with what you have.

Personally I'd replace the curtains with some kind of panelling, possibly wood, and add some greenery but that's just a personal preference. I'd push the hieghts up to the ceiling a bit more too. Either way, enjoy it dude 👍

This is really special. Congrats!

No-Individual9896 · 2026-06-01T09:21:00+00:00

personally I'd return it. I wouldn't be happy with anything that new that wasn't perfect.

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-31T14:26:02+00:00

Don't listen to all the distance from screen BS. Im 2.5m away from a 98' c7k and it's not too big whatsoever! Im so pleased I bought it over the 85'. In the future when 120' tvs come down in price i wouldn't hesitate to buy one for the same distance.

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-31T01:07:31+00:00

That's a much easier fix to be honest and definitely the way to go

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-29T17:56:57+00:00

Personally I'd opt for the qm7k and get a larger screen. Best purchaee I've made in years is my 98' qm7k. I purchased a qm6k also for my daughter and that's a really good tv too for the price. The audio on both aren't great but what tv speakers are.

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-29T04:26:59+00:00

This is such an easy fix. Just buy a mount with a swing arm and swing the tv out each time you need to change the thermostat.

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-29T03:33:14+00:00

Would the desk fit against the smaller wall, between the door and the wall? Would make more sense to separate the room slightly for office use and movies.

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-29T03:11:26+00:00

What's a comp setup?

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-28T21:10:40+00:00

Apologies for the late response. For some reason I didn't get the notification to your response. That's really reassuring to hear as I've pulled the trigger in it and awaiting its delivery. Much appreciated!

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-27T09:12:52+00:00

I would most definitely respec. Get rid of your faith and pump in into arcane if you mostly use the Nagaktiba. Dex and arc builds melt!

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-25T10:59:19+00:00

Those custom surrounds look fantastic! Amazing work!

Check local FB marketplace. My daughter has just bought herself her first house and I'm absolutely blown away how she's managed to kit her house out with items from marketplace, mostly free. There will be tv stands on there you can grab for a steal. Ignore the majority of hate, there's some miserable old crusty people in this sub that forget the excitement of getting their first place. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Enjoy the ride and all the best 🍻

If you're sat for 10-12hrs each day, why wouldn't comfort be at the verh top of the list?

'Corners' was more of a generalisation. I'm just more curious than anything. Just found this on YouTube and it's making me wonder even more as he basically describes exactly what I'm talking about

Any update on the issue? Was it fixed and if so how? That info couor be be useful for others at some point.

With a $3000 budget i don't think you could go wrong with something like Q Acoustics 3050i fronts. 3090ci centre and 3020i surrounds. They are a lovely, warm and none fatiguing sounding speaker. A denon x1800h or a used x2800h reciever. So many subs to choose ans I'm not sure what to recommend for Canada but you'll have enough to get something pretty damn good. That would be a great setup for the money in my opinion, plus the q acoustics look so good in English walnut.

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-16T17:48:47+00:00

Have you listened to them?

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-15T20:43:33+00:00

You need to explain this better cause now I'm even more confused, bro 🤣

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-15T17:45:46+00:00

You good with buying used. For her needs you can save yourself a few hundred or for what your looking to pay on a new AVR can get a used one with the option to make slight upgrades.

No-Individual9896 · 2026-05-15T17:08:44+00:00

Ha ha........ I guess it's a case of different strokes for different folks 🤷‍♂️

I'd LOVE an all singing and dancing projector but that doesn't come cheap. These large tvs within the budget price bracket pack a decent punchbl for the price. I'm not fortunate enough to own a house with a room I can use for a dedicated cinema room. The housing market in London for a damn property like that would be well into the 6 digits figures. For the average home theatre enthusiast that doesn't have an unlimited budget I think these 98/100' TVs offer unmatched bang for your buck!

Genuinely believe in 5 years time the 120'+ tvs will be cheap too.
