I like Sharp's panels. The last two tvs before my samsung have been sharps.

Every screen in my house is a Sammy.

I have a Sony and it’s fantastic. I also have a LG OLED. It’s really good but only with zero ambient light. The LED Sony is better for day watching and rooms with a lot of natural light.

Mine is a Sony as well; 35 or 36” Trinitron w/converter box & rabbit ears.

This old thing weighs well over 200# ... it’s a bit old ~ but still kicking.

I'm happy with my Samsung TVs. Haven't strayed in about 6 generations and always been happy. Whether I purchase a newer model or a budget model, I'm pretty happy. Although I will say the $200 50" I purchased Black Friday 2017 has annoying quirk where it doesn't seem to save the wireless network info. However, I found an easy workaround is to turn it on, then hold down the power button until it turns off and then back on to a splash screen. Voila the wireless works again without me having to re-enter all the login/pass info

Are you looking for quality or value? Sports or movies or something specific? Do you care about any specific features/apps on your TV? A fire stick or chrome cast or roku or something can possibly supplement TV apps. Need to know your needs...

Well I did it. Little over $2K for FA coils and a bunch of SPL parts. Tapped into the lift fund so that may or may not happen by Dec. Definitely doable by Feb/March though

I was jinxed by Spooler

He said I’d be up at 2am if I went to bed before 9
