To start, I've spent the last 8+ years without a TV in the house . After reducing my working hours, I now plan to get one.
My Requirements
The viewing distance in my room, from seating to the screen will be approximately 4m.
We don't watch terrestrial TV at all.
We would only use it to watch a movie on a weekend and a possible hour of a TV-series on a weeknight.
I am hoping to get a PlayStation 5 when they come out.
So far I have been reading a lot from Dodge, whose posts are very informative. I am thinking I will purchase a 65" LG C9 around May so hopefully the price will have gone down a bit. Is this TV suitable?
I currently download anything I watch or watch on Youtube using my computer.
The part I may need more help with is, what else do I need with the TV to enjoy it properly?
I currently have a Marantz AV receiver and a Kef 5.1 egg system, both are approximately 12 years old. Would they still do the job?
I've seen people talking about Apple TV/nVidia Shield, NAS, 4K players, HDR etc. I dont know if these will be required or not as I honestly don't know what they do.
I hear some use Kodi or Firestick devices, but again my knowledge is limited.
Could anybody help me? What else do I need to watch films and TV Series and have a decent experience on a TV.
Any help is appreciated.
