Ultimate Home Displays: OLED, MiniLED and Projection
Cinematic perfection designed for your real-world living space.
I still remember the sickening, slow-motion sound of tearing gypsum board at two in the morning. It sounded like someone slowly ripping a giant phonebook in half, followed by a metallic screech and a heavy, terminal thud. That was the sound of my brand-new 65-inch television, along with a chunk of my living room wall, … Read more
It was a sultry Tuesday evening last summer when the sky suddenly turned the color of a bruised plum. I was sitting on my patio, admiring my newly completed outdoor entertainment area. I had spent the previous weekend carefully mounting a gorgeous weather-resistant screen, routing cables, and getting everything just right. Then, the first crack … Read more
My heart was in my throat. I had just bought a gorgeous, top-tier display, carried it up two flights of narrow stairs to my newly converted attic sanctuary, and realized my grand plan had a massive, sloped flaw. The only open surface was a 45-degree angled wall. Like an eager amateur, I grabbed my drill, … Read more
There I was, standing in my living room at 10 PM, balancing a heavy 65-inch screen on one knee while trying to mark a pencil line on the drywall with my free hand. The level fell off the bracket, clattered onto the hardwood floor, and my left shoulder started screaming in agony. It was a … Read more
I will never forget the sinking feeling I had after finally getting my brand-new OLED mounted above the hearth. There it was—a masterpiece of technology—resting against a stunning, rustic brick backdrop. Then I plugged it in.

Within three minutes, my drill bit was glowing orange, and I had only made a 1/4-inch … Read more
I still have a small, jagged hole in my living room drywall that serves as a permanent monument to my own stubbornness. It happened three years ago, right after I’d unboxed a gorgeous, heavy-duty display. I was so eager to get it up that I ignored the nagging voice in my head and used the … Read more
I remember the distinct, gritty sound of a slow-motion disaster—the crunch of gypsum board yielding to gravity. I was sitting on my sofa, admiring my new 75-inch screen, when I noticed the top edge of the bracket was no longer flush against the paint. My heart didn’t just sink; it plummeted. I had made the … Read more
I stood there, hands on my hips, staring at my brand-new OLED. It looked perfect—until I sat on the couch. Suddenly, the horizon in the movie seemed to be sliding off the screen toward the floor. I didn’t have a bubble level, and I definitely didn’t want to remove the TV from the wall mount … Read more
I was standing there, sweat dripping off my chin, holding a heavy-duty swivel mount against the wall while my ‘pro-grade’ stud finder kept blinking like a confused Christmas light. I’d already made three ‘test holes’—which are really just mistakes I had to patch later—and I was starting to think my house was built entirely out … Read more
