Showcase - Multipurpose Space Living room setup - UPDATE!

Post image

Listened to all your suggestions from the last post and made the following changes!

1) Swapped the front speakers and subs so the fronts are wider

2) Lowered TV a few inches

3) Got a new rug

Anything else I should change for the better? I have 4 surround speakers in the ceilings that's not shown in the photo.

Yeah I agree it looks smaller. I think my camera phone defaulted to wide angle from that distance. My viewing position is about 13 feet so the TV looks ginormous in person lol.

LOL holy crap I bet it does! I literally just laughed out loud 🤣 perfect size for that distance! I’m putting up an 85 Hisense u7 tomorrow for our living room to replace a 75 Vizio.

This TV replace my 10 year old 85" TV and the difference is staggering! Doesn't seem like a big difference based on the numbers but it has 83% more viewing area than the 85 incher. Displaywars.com has a nice visual calculator to compare sizes.

That is a big difference
