Hi there,
It's been a long time since my last TV and amp purchase and since then a lot has changed with the introduction of SMART TVs, 4K etc.
I'm now in the market to buy a new TV and amp and need a little help in knowing what to look for based on my needs.
So here goes...
Any help and advice on any of the above would be much appreciated, also any recommendations on a TV that fits my needs would be great too.
Thanks,
Dan
It's been a long time since my last TV and amp purchase and since then a lot has changed with the introduction of SMART TVs, 4K etc.
I'm now in the market to buy a new TV and amp and need a little help in knowing what to look for based on my needs.
So here goes...
- Pass 5.1 audio (dolby & DTS) from the TV to the amp (such as the 5.1 audio from a smart tv app like netflix or amazon). I understand that not all TVs can do this - what is it I'm looking for?
- Also what am I looking for in amps to support this feature? Is it all handled with the one HDMI cable that sends and receives audio and video?
- Smart TV OS - what's considered good?
- Back when I got my last TV, it was all about Samsung TVs for the quality to price ratio. Is this still the case or are there other brands I should be paying attention to?
- HDR - with a budget of around £1k, is this something I should ignore for now, or can I get a decent HDR set with this budget?
Any help and advice on any of the above would be much appreciated, also any recommendations on a TV that fits my needs would be great too.
Thanks,
Dan
