LG were showing that new 90" 4K kit they have and I have to say it was bloody spectacular. Obviously the demo they show is geared to impress but it was jaw droppingly good. They had the demo that you can see in the picture at the link below running. The guy on the stand said £20k but the news article says £13k. I am sure even at that price it will sell like hot cakes to those that can afford.

good point spod, can I request everyone stops quoting SAS please.
But I suspect in 2->4 years 84" will be in the £2-5K region.
its $20,000 maybe its 'US-Dorrar"?Comment

Or enjoying a feature film that cost millions to make in the best quality achievable at home.

Or even playing Just Dance on a big telly?
etc?
We can afford it, its not like the kiddies are missing out on vegetables so we can have a large Plasma. That's what makes it chavvy for the Benefit claimants.
Don't judge others by your standards
WHS but I'll skip the reality tv nonsense and stick to films.
Mr N has been dropping hints about buying a projector when we move house.
I've told him to start saving
On his permie salary we'll probably have summat by the time we move country in 10 year.

They are if you want quality and that's something we don't skimp on at Norr Towers.

Not really, but not brilliant.
I think If I was going for projector etc... then I'd prefer a designated media room, rather than sticking it in the lounge.Comment

Actually, that looks very good. I might need to buy Auntie Albert a sweetener before I begin negotiations though.Originally posted by Moscow Mule View PostEngland's greatest sailor since Nelson lost the armada.Comment
