Hi, everyone. I've been researching for a good month now. I'm enclosing a picture of the room I hope to build a solid home theater in. Pool table will be gone in a few days giving me more room.
First, the TV: So far I've read nothing but great things about the LG OLED technology, am interested in purchasing a 65 inch LGB OLED. However, I'm open to LCD.
Gaming: I have a newly purchased Xbox One X, want a TV that will maximize its abilities. Again, I'm reading the OLED is great for gaming as well as sports, both my main interests, but I remain open to any LCD that can maximize this experience and have never owned an OLED before.
Sound: I've read about the soundbars, the new Sony NT-5000, The Samsung 950. I'm interested in something that can provide Atmos and preferably DTS-X, though I'll profess to not know much about either, just hear how great Atmos is. I've also looked at the in the box type setups, namely Onkyo 7800. And I'm wide open to purchasing components separately to gain at least a 5.1.2 setup, but I honestly have no idea on what to buy or the best way to set up for the room I will be putting this in.
And, lastly: Where are the best places to garner the best deals on this type stuff as even I know Amazon is not the one. I see the places online like Joe's that seem to offer great deals, but I worry because it also seems TOO GOOD. Are these type places legit for TV deals? How about the sound components?
Anything you can give me for a starter kit, intermediate, whatever, would be MUCH APPRECIATED. I'm hoping to keep the costs to no more than $1,500-$1,800 for the TV and $1,200 for the sound tops. Lower is preferable.
Thanks again!!!
