Was out getting the Christmas tree this morning and apparently the sound was going funny on the kitchen telly. So Mrs JD did what anyone would do in this situation, and hit it...

I dunno, it looks pretty cool as it is. I'd be inclined to stick with it for a while and see how you get on with it.

Hi John,sorry to read about the mishap.What have you got lying around that will improve the sound,or will it mean a small soundbar/or usb speakers if it has that facility. oops more expense or will you be able to put up with it for the time being.Good luck.

Motion handling is "fluid"

Sounds like you need a decent 5.1 system in the kitchen JD
Oh come on Mr C - 1) you've been in my kitchen and 2) you've met Mrs JD, neither of which are conducive really...

Well, I don't want to sound smug about a 5.1 system in the kitchen, but ..... okay then, and when I figure out how to change my signature it will be shown that the new improved subwoofer in the 17' x 13' kitchen is the SVS PC12-Plus (recently moved there from the parlour), and the new larger (but not necessarily better) television is now the LG 60PZ950T. But then again, there is no Mrs Son_of_SJ! And I don't have a Christmas tree either!

Nah, just tapped it lightly with her fingertips......

Get used to it, my Sister has a smallish Samsung in her living room and the sound is like nails down a blackboard.:O
TBH it's not really a big deal, it's just for casual use in the kitchen. Connecting it to an amp and speakers would be more trouble than it's worth I suspect...
Has the Missus got an iPod or anything? Could get a smallish dock, or even a DAB radio with an aux in for sound duties.
We have a number of things in the hifi drawer, I'm just not sure I can be bothered
We have a long narrow kitchen with a door to the hall at the end, on one side of which sits the TV, and on the other the Mac. Tempted to amp up the Mac and have some Neat Iotas wall mounted up in the corners. The TV could then piggyback into that amp, but the wiring could be a little awkward so not sure whether I have the energy (or indeed patience) to explain to everybody how it works.

I've decided that January 2013 is "get some pictures of my systems" month so folk will be able to see my kitchen arrangement. Hoever, my kitchen is not far off square, as opposed to yours being long and thin. And I don't need to explain the wiring to anyone!

Small pair of PC speakers? I have a £40 set of Creative Audio jobs hooked up to the headphone socket of our bedroom TV, and the sound is pretty decent. Far better than TV speakers even when hidden behind the TV, as the boss lady prefers.
