How big should be the TV? - Gazeta.pl

Queen of Sciences

Buying a new TV because of the size, it is not reckless. Technical specifications, features and interesting additions are important, but it is replacing a smaller TV to big, it makes the most ordinary of fun. It is also one of the aspects of the new equipment, which bore the slowest. Each time a black tile great TV comes to life an explosion of color, we experience the excitement. How far we can go in so enlarging the receiver

If you want to stick to the strict rules developed by experts (which I do not recommend this in the next paragraph), the matter is simple. The size TV should choose the distance which divides us from it. On the web you can find many recommendations for these calculations. The most common of them are talking about would be at a distance of 1.5 to 3 diagonal of the screen.

This means that if you have eye on the TV with a diagonal of 60 inches (about 1.5 meters), you should sit in front of it:

– close – just 2.25 meters,

– far away – in a distance of 4.5 meters.

upper limit is greatly exaggerated in my opinion, but that is my subjective opinion. Some even offer to sit closer than 1.5 times the diagonal. For example, a company THX is often cited as the one that recommended pay almost nose to the screen. According to her, the viewer feels best at about 1.2 times the screen diagonal. For a 60-inch TV, so it would be only 1.8 meters from the screen.

Are these calculations make sense? Well, yes and no. Give some idea of ??what to expect and may be part of the output of our future purchase. However, if you are planning a big jump size, it is worth checking the physical size of the TV and prepare themselves the “dummy” (such as cardboard). Only physical object placed in a location where it will be installed on the TV, it will give us a real idea of ??what to expect. And in this case, however, take the patch to two facts. The first real TV will seem larger than a flat cardboard box. Secondly, it will made us more joy, and when you turn will present a million times better than the gray area of ??the box.

last measurable element to be taken into account when choosing the size of the TV is room. If you live in a building with a high ceiling – can afford more. If we have a very tight furniture and do not plan to change them – we need to be more limited. TV hanging on the wall can present itself differently than if we put him down on the floor. With the hands of the dummy TV worth checking out a variety of settings and methods of assembly.

so much in the way based on calculations and senses. But just rely only on dry data

Mathematics is wrong!

According to the Polish division of Sharp, there is no such thing as too much television. The company has for several years been campaigning to promote large diagonals. Really big diagonals. According to Sharp’s conviction was supposedly 65 inches absolute maximum for an average apartment, is the most vicious. Before the UEFA EURO 2012 championships Sharp suggested to us that big maybe more and promoted televisions sizes reaching up to 80 inches. Today, the manufacturer has designed new models of this type, and goes even further. Sharp shows that the TV can be up to 90 inches! At the expense of a hole in the family budget, because if the receiver costs more than many a car.

Other companies are not Japanese debt. Large televisions in their offer, for example:

– 84 inch 4K at Sony – Bravia KD-84X900,

– 84 inch 4K Toshiba – Series L9

– 85 inch TV Samsung 4K – S9

– scary Panasonic 145-inch 8K

– 84 inch 4K LG – 84LM9600

4K resolutions are terribly expensive, and the huge diagonal Full HD even a little cheaper. There are, however, those interested in such a monstrous TVs. In a report prepared for what blog Citizen HD I mentioned the results of the Polish sales branch offices of large companies in the sector TVs over 65 inches. It turned out that in the country on the Vistula River will be willing on both the TV 75, 80 and 85 inch. Ba! Somewhere in Poland, a staunch fan of the huge diagonal even has a 103 inch plasma worth 300 000 PLN (net).

Is this overkill? On one hand, yes, because at such astronomical prices much more logical to invest in a good projector and adaptation for the whole room. Probably half of the biggest TV we could create a private cinema room and with a supply of films for many years.

the other hand, while remaining within the limits of the 80-inch Full HD, the price drops considerably. A few years ago TV on the diagonal was something completely abstract. Today, “80-tuple” can be purchased for $ 17 000 z?. Most customers see the price and so snort of disdain, while tapping his head. But it is not the amount that goes beyond the limits of imagination.

In addition to the issue price is still needed. According dry mathematical calculations in the previous paragraph, most Americans probably do not need a TV larger than 65 inches. The very thought of such a big receiver trigger vertigo with them and remain safe limit to 55 inches. The problem is that in this case, the math may be wrong. I know of many cases where two weeks after buying a new TV’s user stated that he could make the diagonal inches more. But I do not know any of the holder’s really a big receiver he wanted to go back to the smaller one.

TVs are shrinking. Not like sweaters inadvertently washed at too high a temperature, but with a similar result. We do not want to look at them, annoyed our own stupidity and eventually land in the new art store.

This is of course my subjective opinion, but I believe that, based on experience. Big TV has more slowly wears off, and every time you sit down in front of it with your favorite movie or game, all the defects are of minor importance. Of course, you should not lose your head and into a cramped studio concert insert large video screen. The conservative estimation of the output is worth to add a few or even several inches, and if your budget allows it, and the other half do not threaten divorce, buy something big.

lot of joy

So really there is no such thing as too much television? No, not there. The problem is that often the rooms are too small. If you do not have in the house of the 90-inch monster, it just do not buy it … or Carry out to a larger house.
