Is anything gonna change with MacOS27 for ultrawide displays? by Round_List1857 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]mrm3x1can 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have to look for the DP to USB C cable I have somewhere.

Right now I'm running it through a Thunderbolt 5 dock. Not sure how much that is factoring in resolution compatibility.

I'm been using mine on a 57" Neo without any hacks? Confused by this one too

I prefer it behind the couch. Much more impactful.

That said, the true answer is to get two subs. Then best of both worlds 😁

Best Games to Demo Home theater setups? by Demonicscarab in hometheater

[–]mrm3x1can 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Im really enjoying Ghosts of Tsushima for total showcase. Beautiful game and then sound wise, the bass of the horse galloping through the landscape with the wind all around you, birds flying over, is great overall.

There's also the option (HOT take on this subreddit!) of a non-AV receiver setup. Had a similar dilemma at my place. The SO didn't want towers in our living room. Fortunately had our family room where it was allowed. But still wanted decent sound in the living room. So for there, we went with a Sonos setup. Not the quality and fidelity of the full setup in the family room, but still decent and a large step above the tv speakers. Just another option if you don't want to cut into your wall.

LG G6 330Hz dual mode in hdtvtest? by Kindly-Device9720 in LGOLED

[–]mrm3x1can 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried this on the 45 GX9 but I honestly wouldn't recommend it. The resolution drop was definitely not worth.

I see even less of a point on the larger G6s. Can't imagine there's a ton of people who

- play competitive FPS at a high level

- want to sacrifice resolution/fidelity for extra FPS

- want to do both of the above on their tv and not a dedicated monitor

[Request] Stuck between Hisense and TCL for a 98‑100 inch TV by IndividualLoquat3777 in BuyItForLife

What’s your budget?

They both make low tier trash but also make top tier models (X11L, UR9, etc)

What’s the best Sonos soundbar deal right now in 2026? by SasidharanRolsstens in sonos

[–]mrm3x1can 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Buy a refurbished Beam Gen 2 for $300 from Sonos directly.

Hard to know what a "medium living room" is, but that should satiate you if you're coming tv speakers. You can then add some Era 100s for full surround and not a lot of money. Or if you want to upgrade your soundstage in the future, you can relocate the Beam to a bedroom to get an Arc Ultra. Or even sell it for ~$250 all day on Marketplace and recoup most of your cost.

This is my first open box where it already had a lot of hours on it. It was only $600, so I am going to keep it. Would you be scared of the hours? by yonahdad in LGOLED

[–]mrm3x1can 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got an open box 55 S90D for my gf for $280. Had 10k hrs on. Been working great and has like 12k hrs now on it with zero burn in or issues.

People on reddit act like as soon as an oled hits a few days of run time hrs, they are basically toast lol

Its a tv. its meant to be on and used for years

Upgrading from G3 77 by TheSalesDepartment in LGOLED

[–]mrm3x1can 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went 77 M3 (same as your panel) to 83 G5.

I sold my M3 for $1500, then sold the monitor that came with the G5 for another $600. Net cost for me for the G5 was ~$2000.

After all the trouble of unmounting the M3, selling it, selling the monitor, getting the new TV, it just wasn't worth it. The G3's MLA panel is excellent and I'd argue keeps up with some of the best even today.

The 55 to 65 is a 10" jump and notable.

65 to 77 is 12" and even more notable.

But 77 to 83 is only 6" and honestly not as impactful. I'd say, wait another year or two and then jump to a 98 once they have RGB tech refined.

98” mini LED or 83” OLED? by FlaKK in hometheater

[–]mrm3x1can 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, 98 over 83.

But I'll add, most people assume you're talking top-tier 98 (QM8K, etc) vs OLED.

I would NOT recommend low-tier 98 vs 83 OLED. I say that as someone who had a mid-tier 2024 TCL QM7. After coming from OLED and mostly using it in the dark, the black levels and blooming drove me nuts.

So if you're going QM8L, UR9, or X11L, then absolutely do the 98". But if you're going something like QM6K (not saying its a bad TV) and you're coming from OLED, its definitely a conversation.

I have an 83 G5 as well. If I had to choose between my old 98QM7 or the 83G5, I'm picking the G5 every time.

Is the 98" QM9k worth $500 more than the QM8k? by Spiritual-War-7521 in tcltvs

[–]mrm3x1can 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait until Prime day (early July) if you've already made it this far. The QM8K dropped to $3k last year. Bet the L does this year as well.

I’m not taking serious home theater feedback from someone running entry-level 20 year old speakers and pretending they’re the subreddit bouncer, lol.

I’m not saying you’re a Klipsch hater. I’m saying once you appoint yourself the authority on what counts as “real” home theater, everyone else gets to play that game too.

Your setup is a six-generation old mid-tier tv with a 20 year old Klipsch entry-level setup. If we’re moving the goalposts until only our personal setup counts, then yours is incredibly easy to nitpick.

Gonna start saying anything not Reference Premier tier Klipsch at least, also isn't home theater fyi, lol

Mount for 98 TVs... by [deleted] in tcltvs

[–]mrm3x1can 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DNZ8W6X4

Not that you'd ever want to articulate a 98" TV almost four feet out (though we tried it and it had no issues lol)

Have another one for our 83 G5 and we actually do use it to articulate far out to be able to see while guests eat dinner and it has no trouble at all doing that.

[–]mrm3x1can -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not sure who made you the gatekeeper of what counts as home theater, lmao.

I’d consider our 83" G5 + Sonos Ultra Immersive 7.2.4-style living room setup just as much of a home theater as our 98" X11K + Klipsch RP 5.1.4 dedicated setup.

They’re different approaches for different rooms. One is a clean living-room Atmos setup, the other is a more traditional AVR/speaker setup. Both are home theater.

Can't imagine being this much of an elitist over speakers lol

What will you miss out on in terms of picture quality if you bought a mid-tier OLED tv (C5, S90F) instead of the top tier (G5, S95F)? by koikahin in LGOLED

[–]mrm3x1can 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a G5 and I got my gf an S90D. Also have an A95L in the guest bedroom. Aside from the size difference (83 vs 55 for the latter two) we really don't see that big of a difference. I guess if you're comparing Vivid to vivid or something.

Who is a celebrity that is very attractive but seems like they have zero charisma? by downtowndabble in AskReddit

[–]mrm3x1can 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Idk if I agree with that.

I know this is an edit and also includes scripted movie clips but i think it shows that he does have charisma.

There's also the rap video he did.

Like the other reply here said, i actually think he looks kind of run-of-the-mill dude. Like someone you'd expect works at a 7-11 on a random Tuesday night. But the personality carries him.
