But now I'm glad my wife didn't let me buy a 65" - she keeps flowers and stuff on the mantle - imagine what a sound reflector that would be! So far I'm running it in defaults other than turning some Auto stuff off. Blacks and colours are remarkable even though I have no UHD sources, let alone HDR. Upscaling is very nice - I'm using the Oppo BDP-95 to take DVDs to 1080p, and the TV to take them to 4K and they've never looked better. There is still some motion blur in fast action; the Samsung plasma in the bedroom will remain my go to for hockey. I was a little shocked at the cheap captive power cord - but what can you expect for $2999 Canadian delivered, mounted and installed? Even after I buy a UHD player, replace the old Anthem AVM 20 pre-pro and have it ISF calibrated the total bill will be thousands less than the Elite was 14 years ago.
