When people create these kinda threads, I always think, "Wow, these rich people with no budget constraints."

Only later do they post their working budget. Am I right?

Don't know much about TV at 75". Other's can chime in.

If you want a clean setup with minimal wires, the new Bravia Theater Quad is at RM11,500 without the subwoofer. You'd need the SA-SW5 subwoofer (RM2,800) to really make it work. So total about RM14,300.

If you want a UST setup, you can get the Nexigo Aurora Pro with a 100" Fresnel screen for RM11,000, without shipping and tax. Their Black Friday promo is on now.

Don't think it matters to OP since I don't think he's gonna go for the Nexigo. But there will be a 120" fresnel screen bundle available on Prime Day and Black Friday. Don't know the price but probably around USD3,200.

The current bundle is with 100" fresnel screen.

If you can provide pictures of the living room layout, that would be great.

If there are window and you don't want to use curtains, even a TV screen can be affected; think of all the objects - including your body - that are bouncing the light from the window to everywhere else, including toward the TV screen.

Interior design can also affect your enjoyment. Ceiling lights can get reflected onto the TV screen. It's good to have a soft overall glow or bounced lights for the room instead of hard sources of light. Most TVs have matte finished screens but even they can show reflected lights.

See how the TV is reflecting the bar/kitchen behind the camera? If you minimize the light in front of the TV, you can increase the enjoyment you get from your TV. The same is true for ambient light rejection screens for USTs.


NAP in daylight. The room is in some shade but full glass wall over 4 meters.
