LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

Re: LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

I'm going with this TV as well. I bought a Sony x800d, which is a very nice TV, but I'm going to exchange it for the x900E (I want a native 120 Hz tv). The 900E looks great.

The 900E is an awesome set, we have one at Best Buy. I'd love to get this one to put in the bedroom to replace a 40" Vizio D series we have.

Re: LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

Just got a 65 KS8000!!! Excited to say the least and would like to thank everyone in this thread. Y'all really helped me out a ton in research.

That's the tv I have as well, owned it for about three weeks now and I'm still loving it!!

The 900E looks like a good tv, but SONY always has to overcharge for their TVs...

I remember about ten years ago talking to a Best Buy employee about Sony products and something he said stuck with me forever. He said generally speaking, Sony products are the best. But are you willing to pay 25% more for 5% better?

Not always true but wise words nonetheless. And I say that as an owner of a Sony X800D TV lol.

What's interesting is the 900E is basically at the same price point as the P65 was when it 1st hit market I believe

I saw the 65 inch model for $2500 on Best Buy's site. Maybe the smaller models are better priced I haven't checked.

I think this used to be true 10 plus years ago. I remember when Sony used to make walkmans and discmans and they definitely made the better stuff back then, but I think they've fallen behind since then especially in the tv market. They make great stuff but you rarely see them ranked #1 anymore.

Re: LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

Oh I agree with you 100% Artman...I think they've fallen off their perch a while back now. One thing I will say for them is that unlike most other companies, when you buy a Sony product, you almost never get a bad product. They're not the best anymore in alot of aspects. But I don't think you'll ever be unhappy with a Sony product. You just could probably be happier with something else.

Re: LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

Hey guys, I wasn't sure where to ask this so I am asking here since there is a lot of discussion and help on newer 4K tvs.

I am hoping I can get some help here. I need to be able to use a headset to TV at night and as much as I did tons of research on 4k, HDR, COLOR GAMUT etc...etc... I didn't realize to check to see what ports these TVS have.

I recently bought a 65 inch Samsung curve TV the KU7500.

I have had my 50 inch plasma since 2008 and on this TV I had all kinds of hookups on the back and never had a problem getting sound thru a headset and thru the TV.

Now on my new TV KU7500 there is no longer a headphone jack, they have these 2 pieces for Component end and a AV in, but I have tried both of these and still no sound at all.

Does anyone know how I can get sound on this tv to go to a headset? I bought the Hyper X to test, but nothing seems to work. I own a Bose system that I use optical on if that matters.

Re: LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

The Hisense H8C 55" is the commonly accepted Operation Sports Budget recommended 4K. I do recall reading you don't want the 50" Hisense though because it's a different panel manufacturer and it's not as good.

Dang, guess I should have gotten the 55" version. Ultimately went with the 50" because it was $100 cheaper, and I was already over budget @ $399.

Well if it makes you feel any better I remember they said the difference was small but go with the 55" if given the choice and the funds. I believe the difference was the input lag was slightly better on the 55" over the 50".

For your headphones what are you using? Optical is what it sounds like from your comment (or are you using a stereo 1/8" jack??). I looked at page 16 of your user manual and the TV should have an optical out on the back. So have you tried that to your headphones?

Here is the online user manual btw

Ok, so you have sound from your TV via optical to the Bose. Can you plug your HyperX Stinger into your Bose via a headset jack on the Bose?
