Browse Forums Home Theatre & Automation 1 Mar 13, 2017 12:38 pm Help me decide please! Upgrading from a bench mounted Panasonic 40" to a wall-mounted something, our wall is just over 350cm wide so plenty of room for up to a 65" with the Dali speakers I picked on gumtree for a bargain. Can't for the life of me decide between: SONY KDL65W850C 65 Inch Full HD LED Smart with Android TV for $1440 or SONY KD55X8500D 55 Inch 4K HDR with Android TV for $1400 Both TV's come from Sony Australia with free shipping and full warranties. In 2017, is it worth getting a smaller 4K or should I opt straight for the bigger TV with lower resolution. We only own a standard blu-ray player with no plans on upgrading in the next year or 2 Re: Sony Home Theatre - 55" 4K or 65" FHD 2Mar 13, 2017 6:28 pm I personally wouldn't spend any money on a 4K that was less than 65". To me any size less than that can't really take advantage of that resolution. Especially if you are not upgrading the input. Re: Sony Home Theatre - 55" 4K or 65" FHD 4Mar 13, 2017 7:34 pm Take the 55 inch now and in a few years time upgrade again and relegate the 55 to the kids TV or bedroom. I have the 75" 75x9400c with built in speakers and separate wireless sub. Fantastic unit and we watch Foxtel 720p or Kodi. Up scaling is incredible. 4K is magic but there is not enough content ATM.

Bought the Sony 65" 4K for $2071 Now to wait and see how long it takes to arrive! =D Re: Sony Home Theatre - 55" 4K or 65" FHD 11Mar 29, 2017 9:20 am Woops forgot to update. Took 4 business days to arrive in Brisbane, tracking shows it came from warehouse in Melb. Very glad we went with the 65", it fills the wall beautifully! Picture is clear and crisp. Only issue is the sound is lacking but we have the soundbar permanently on so no problem. Very happy! We already paid for somfy motors for the blinds. The quote above was purely for “pre-wiring” so the blinds company can install the motors and blinds. That’s why we… 5 18361 Hi, you've probably already resolved this, however, Commbank will probably pay the funds to you after you send evidence the work is done regardless the change in the quotes. 1 36593 |
