    65" still too big after five months

    Based on advice and viewing calculators, I purchased a 65"Sony Bravia OLED. I have had the TV for five months now and it still feels too big. 4K looks good (but too big) and letterboxed movies are ok, but everything else is too big and even 1080p doesn't look as sharp as I had expected. I am...

    Problem solved. I have to turn off motionflow separately for each source.

    Motionflow

    I just bought a Sony Bravia 65 inch and I turned off the motionflow. However, I find that when watching the same program through different sources (e.g. cable box app, Apple TV, built in tv streamer) sometimes it still has the soap opera effect and sometimes not, depending on the source. Any...

    appropriate amp for Paradigm Founder 100f

    The dealer does not stock Moon. I would prefer a built-in DAC and phono stage, as the Moon and Anthem have. I would be looking to spend approx. US $4,000.00. I am aware of the Sphinx, but had forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder.

    appropriate amp for Paradigm Founder 100f

    Thanks for the prompt reply. I did audition them, but not with the Yamaha (not sure what was driving them). The Anthem STS was driving a piar of Founder 80f at the time. I will be using them as a stereo pair and I listen almost exclusively to jazz at modest volume levels, if that matters. The...

    appropriate amp for Paradigm Founder 100f

    I posted a thread earlier about upgrading my Paradigm 6000f speakers to the Founder 100f. The salesperson suggested that I also upgrade my Yamaha as 801 to an Anthem str that he has in stock. Are there any other amps that anyone would recommend for this application? Thanks.

    Question new speakers

    I listen to digital audio mostly with my laptop connected to the as 801 via its usb port. I also have a Yamaha cd-s300 and a Project Debut Carbon with Ortofon bronze cartridge upgrade. The room is 12' deep and 24' wide with an 8.5' ceiling.

    Question upgrade from 42" plasma

    I am considering upgrading my 2008 42" Panasonic 720p plasma to a 55" or 65" oled. I am sitting 8.5' from the screen. The 65" seems a bit much when I view it in my local store, but maybe it will feel more natural at home when I get used to it. Is the 55" a more logical step up?

    Question new speakers

    I am considering upgrading my Paradigm 6000f speakers to the Founder 100f. I am powering them with a Yamaha as 801 integrated. The salesperson suggested that the Yamaha is not "high-end" enough for the Founders and that I should also upgrade my integrated to an Anthem in the same price category...
