Does anybody own one of the Samsung QLEDs?

I want a 75" and am looking at the q7 (models go from q6-q9), but $2700 is a lot for a TV, more than 3 times what I've ever paid for a TV. The equivalent q6 is $2,000, but it has fewer features than the q7-q9.

Currently own a 55" Samsung 1080p TV that's 2-3 years old.

Motor about this site for a bit:

https://www.rtings.com/tv

The tests they put the televisions through are extensive. I ended up deciding on the LG because of the reflection tests they do and the photos they post of the results (along with the actual % of light reflected); I have a 3 month period during football season where the mid-day sun comes right through my back windows and into my set so being able to kill that glare was huge.

They'll give you all kinds of technical data and also distill it down into a pretty digestable format. You can put any 2 televisions head to head and focus on exactly what you're looking for from usage all the way down to light output and local dimming issues.

Really the best research site for televisions out there by quite a bit.

Here's their breakdown of cyber monday deals and how each of the TVs has performed:

I have black faux leather curtains and they do their job well when it comes to "blackout".

I own an early set of these and have for 30 years. Had them refoamed twice but thats not bad for the environment they live in.

http://cdn3.volusion.com/auyqf.vbayt...jpg?1535695772

My JBL PRO Control ONE speakers without amps weigh considerably more than the JBL 306P MKII at 13lb/pr. speakers with amps.

You can still buy JBL Pro gear including Control Ones now called 1's but when Harmon bought JBL all the good stuff went south for China made components and lightweight drivers. With Harmon WHORING the good JBL name and referring to their products as "reference" and "professional" is why when in financial trouble Samsung snapped them up for chump change. Yeah, Korenan JBL !!!!

I would still recommend the JBL Pro Control 1's if you can't afford a set of Totum Mites but those JBL speakers blow even when they go for a Black Friday deal that's not really a deal.

Went home, researched it and found out it was actually a really good TV and was over 750 everywhere. Went back and they were sold out. damnit!

I have a Vizio M series (not the entry level mind you) and I love it.

Especially when you can get it for half price.

I'm not real fond of the Roku UI either but Fire TV is the worst. My mother-in-law's Fire Stick would randomly disable Netflix all the time. Most annoying piece of tech I've ever bought. Not completely useless, not real useful.
