This thing is awesome!!! I got this tv to replace a 70" Vizio, there was nothing wrong with it, but it was 5 years old and not a 4K. As a size reference, the Vizio was the exact same width as the white cabinet underneath it ;) I ordered this tv for $1,996 - within 24 hours, it had dropped down in pri
ce to $1,799, If it was 10 or 20 bucks then I wouldn't have worried about it - but a $200 decrease made me call Amazon, As the order was still processing and hadn't shipped yet, they refunded me the $200 that it had dropped in price (I asked if I should cancel the order and then re-order it at the lower price) In the meantime, I went over to Harbor Freight and bought one of their fully adjustable wall mounts for $40 - Plenty of great reviews for this, I know it says suitable for around 80" tv's and this is an 86" - but it's also good for 130lbs and this weighs around 98lbs. The mount works very well - and trust me you will really appreciate being able to pull it out from the wall and tilting it various angles when plugging in your HDMI's etc. - Next trip was to find a new sound bar and woofer, that would be better than my vizio that o bought at the same time as the tv. I initially went looking for the Bose 700 and found out that these are like Ford & Chevy -- they have their supporters and other people say something else is better - I was also looking at the Samsung for the same price ($799) I went in to Best Buy (not my favorite store) because they had a few on display that I could listen to. You know what? The guy at Best Buy did me a "solid" and pointed me in the direction of the LG soundbar and sub, it was only $399!! After listening to them all, I simply could not justify spending $400 more for the others - maybe some "audiophiles" will point out the differences, but I couldn't hear any. The only thing that concerned me about the tv was the reports of poor "Blacks" on the screen - Again, I am just a regular Joe - and they look perfectly fine to me! I only installed it today, the pointer on the remote is pretty cool and am still working through it's features - But I'm loving this monster and highly recommend it, Picture is great and sound is average with built in speakers - but stands out with the sounder. I also bought an extended warranty from Amazon to go with it - really pleased with this ;)
