I bet your TV is too big

[OfTheCross]

According to Samsung, the right TV size is the viewing distance (in inches) divided by three.

For instance, if you plan on sitting 10 feet from your television, then you’re 120 inches away. When you divide 120 by 3, you get 40. That means that the right TV size for your room is 40 inches.

Who gives a shyt what Samsung says?

As a nikka with a boss 4k 60inch LG (not oled, too poor), yea its basically just a dikk waving contest.

but that's just 40 inches and above. 32 is whack for a bedroom unless it's a lil kids room or the kitchen or something.

That's all good and everything however if I tell Samsung I want their 78" 4K QLED set for $10K the only thing their going to suggest is Visa/MC/AMEX and delivery destination. I have a 65" 4K unit from them it's 10ft from my couch, looks perfect.

Come to think of it, it could be bigger, maybe up to a 75...

I have a 32inch LG tv

I got a 50" over Christmas. It's a big step up from 32". But if I were watching it from 8 feet away, 32" would be the right TV size.
But, the article also has this...
A 50-inch screen can be sufficient if you are up to 7.5 feet from the screen.

It would be crazy if I had a larger screen.

What's up with that cable management my breh

Wiremold channels from Home Depot, there is 11 speakers the avr powers, 4 overheads, 2 side surrounds, 2 back surrounds, and the 3 you see in the pic, plus the powered sub. Wiremold was the cleanest I could find for the walls.

The only place you see the wires is where they come out of the channels to connect to the avr.

No such thing as too big

[YamakaSmacker]

There are numerous formulas online. I'm about 11.5' away from my 75" sitting on a hearth about 18" off the floor and it's absolutely perfect.

Thread should be "i bet your tv is too high"
