    Anyone sporting 65 or 70" TV?

    They look so small in big box stores, but measurements in my house make it look crazy big!

    Anyone have one they can post a picture of their setup from a ways back and see how it fits the room. We are thinking of mounting one above our fireplace but it fills the whole area, just not sure how this would look.

    Not to exact scale but close!

    Just take some painters tape and make a rectangle to the dimensions of the TV.

      We have measured, just seems so overwhelming sitting 10' away. Curious of actual setups!

        All ballers here. Nobody has a TV that small.

          I've got a 65 in my livingroom. I will get a picture tonight and measure how far away from it our couch is

            Under 9 feet from the center and 65 is plenty. Actually a 60 would be better at under 9 feet. My buddy bought a 70 for his small home and it looks stupid, almost too big 6 feet away. I believe someone posted (CWO) maybe in the HIF on size and distance, might want to do a search.

              Our front room is big and our house is open and a 65" seemed enormous for the first couple weeks until you get used to it. Now it seems perfect. We sit about 11 feet away if I remember correctly, I can measure tonight.

              Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

              You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

                I'll get a pic of our 70" and get distance tonight. I think it's perfect.

                  I went from a 50 to a 60 and the change was larger than I had expected. My livingroom is small and I am only 9' away.

                    I think the one in my butler's bathroom is a 67".

                      I went from a 55" to a 70" when we moved into our house. It doesn't look as big as it is because of the monstrous entertainment center my wife bought...

                      Don't have any pics at the moment. We sit about 15' from the TV. Sometimes I wish I had gone 80", but still pretty pleased with the 70" for the most part.

                        I think in your case it's the relation to the fireplace that makes it look big, and that the fireplace juts into the room, making the tv stick out more than usual. On an empty wall would be a different story. Think about those with projectors and 100" screens, or even going to the movie theater, in those cases the screen takes up most of the field of vision. You've also got the juxtaposition of modern tech being mounted to a fireplace from the 70's.

                        Without the fireplace a 70" tv would look fine there imo.

                            We sit 11' away from a 9-year old 50" 720p Samsung plasma. Seems fine to me. And it keeps us warm in the wintertime.

                            The picture on modern TVs is great, but I think our next leap will be to a projector. Not because the image is big, but because you can conceal the entertainment system when not in use.
