How to Select the Best TV for Your Room

This is a comprehensive guide on selecting the best TV for your room. Here are the key points to consider:

1. Size: The right size TV for your home is a matter of personal preference, but most people end up with a larger TV than they had originally planned on. To ensure comfortable viewing, the minimum viewing distance from screen to couch should be 1.5x the screen width. For an 85-inch TV, your seating area be at least 8.75 feet back from the screen.

2. Technology: There is a plethora of choices, sizes, and an alphabet soup of acronyms like OLED, QLED, LED, etc. OLED TVs are premium quality sets that offer improved black levels, the best dynamic image and a wider viewing angle. We sell a lot of Samsung and LG TV’s, but we love Sony TVs due to their advanced technology and involvement in every step of the video production and reproduction process.

3. Mounting: For comfortable viewing, the TV should be mounted at a height where your eye will land in the middle to the bottom third of the screen when you are seated. A 65-inch TV mounted at the correct height will have the bottom of the screen roughly 2 feet off the floor. The Audiohouse offers TV lifts and unique mounting solutions to help address the issue of mounting TV above the fireplace, popping out of a cabinet or dropping down from the ceiling.

4. Sound: The tiny speakers built into the TV don't provide the best sound. A dedicated surround sound system or a soundbar can improve the sound quality. The Audiohouse offers a range of sound solutions, from simple Sonos soundbars to dedicated theaters.
