Hi All,

 

Looking at an upgrade from a 13 year Sony Bravia when funds permit. Mostly watching Supercars, F1 and Rugby.

 

Keen to know what you're watching your sport on (terrestrial and native streaming apps) and what you would be looking for a decent wall-mounted TV that's mostly used for sport.

I use Sky Sport through our wall mounted TV (LG 65" 4K) gives a "being there" feeling.





Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.

If you can justify the cost, you can't really go past a 65" OLED.

I often watch on my iPad. 

 

Not great for the broader audience, but I enjoy it - especially with my Airpods Pro's in

50" Panasonic Viera using Sky Sport and/or Spark (depending on sport / season) through Apple TV streaming device. The Viera is good - but there are better TV's out there. 

 

 

 

Biggest flaw in my system is the Panasonic Soundbar. blech. 





Once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing that is something, wearing stripes with plaid comes easy.

50" Panasonic VT plasma with Nvidia Shield running Sky Sport Now and Spark Sport apps with sound through a Marantz receiver and Kef floorstander speakers.

 

Plasma is still going strong so don't see any need to replace it (although I'm clearly not making the most of the Xbox Series X plugged into my system).

For the Euros I was using a VPN and using the BBC Iplayer.  Using old Panasonic plasma (just like above great picture still).  Going to shell out for Spark and get PL football will probably Chromecast it.
