I had a 55" Sony Bravia, but the movers smashed it. Given that I don't watch much TV, I just replaced it with a 55" LG for half the price.

I also have a 32" Samsung (in guest bedroom) and a 32" Vizio (my room)

I intend to either buy a 32" or a 40" TV for my office / hobby room. The guest TV used to be in my office.

75 inch Sharp in my den, 70 Samsung in the living room, 49 Sony in my bedroom and a couple of 32 inch Vizios in the spare bedrooms, my daughter took one of them to her dorm room. All stock, no bells and whistles. Direct TV.
I have another 32 inch with cable at my home on SPI. I want a bigger TV there, but since I hardly watch TV when I'm there, I guess there's no point.

I work among some cerebral individuals. I noticed the higher the education, the smaller was the home TV. I wonder if there is any correlation?

Nope! My brothers and I all had the same TV growing up. Two of us are coaches, one has two masters and one PHD and the other has one masters two PHDs, speak several languages and has published 8 books. He is also a director of a prominent university in Rome. BTW, my IQ is higher than all of theirs and I currently have the biggest TV.

So you're compensating for something else?

A bigger living room?

Samsung 65 inch NU8000 4K which I got several weeks ago on sale for 999.99. Pretty happy with it, some of the stuff on it looks amazing.

You mean video game wise? A PS4 Pro.

Yes a PS4 is pretty much it, will get a nice sound bar here pretty quickly.

Get a proper sound system. Forgo the sound bar.

Have a decades old Yamaha rack stereo system that will still shake the walls. Maybe i'll use that.

Guarantee it is better than the soundbar. Not being snobbish. I have a soundbar in my bedroom. It some situations they serve a purpose, but in general, you're just going to get better audio through a receiver and speakers.

Thank you, will save my money then and pass on the soundbar.

No problem. I bought into the idea of getting a soundbar for my living room, but looking at things holistically, I realized it would have been a huge mistake. I went for a budget/quality 5.2.2 system. Very happy with it.
