Ola all sifus!!
Got 2 question for u guys:
i. Im going to buy a new tv. With the length from the tv cabinet to my sofa is ±160cm, what size of the tv should be the best? According to the shop assistant, with that length, the best size tv is 32" only.
Im looking for a LED tv with Samsung topping the list.
ii. Is it worth it to buy a 32" LED tv? Seems like with the same price, I can get 40" or even 47" LCD tv...
Thanks for the helps guys & girls!!
Cheers.
THX Seat-to-screen Viewing Distance Calculations
How do you calculate the best seat-to-screen distance for a plasma, LCD TV or projection screen? Divide the size of your screen by .84 (screen size is measured diagonally). For example, a 65-inch TV divided by .84 equals a 77-inch viewing distance (6.5 feet).
If your HDTV is going in a living room with limited space, THX recommends the following:
35 inch class TV = 3.5-5 feet away
40 inch class TV = 4-6 feet away
50 inch class TV = 5-7.5 feet away
60 inch class TV = 6-9 feet way
It might seem that THX is recommending a very large screen size for your room. But, it’s important to note two things: 1) THX screen size recommendations are based on recreating an immersive cinematic experience, and 2) the biggest complaint among TV buyers is that they wish they had bought a bigger set.
