Thinking of this. Any advice or recommendations / alternatives.

Criteria is 65", 4k, HDR1000

Do you need a TV that big? Wouldn't it be cheaper to get a new pair of glasses?

Haha tell the kids

I bought a 49" one last year thinking that was big enough, but they are all telling me it's too small so it's being relegated to the kitchen apparently.

bloody kids!! I grew up on 10-12 inch telly screens and 1 old black and white telly they will never know the struggles!!

My partners brother has a huge telly as well 4k flat screen and he assures me when he plays his PS4 Pro it is excellent so sure you kids will love playing their games on something as big as a cinema screen as well!

Looks like you get 200quid back which makes it a reasonable price for a high spec telly. Might be a good shout

However you could pop to PC World they have a huge selection there and could pick something as high quality as that for maybe cheaper

Can't forget "high speed dubbing" man, now that was technology!

Smart money says Ross has never even seen a record player.

And yes....I remember sitting with me Decca radio/cassette player, finger poised over the pause button, 'cos hitting the Play/Record buttons at the same time was a bit of an iffy proposition.

the lost art of cassette design....

Is that yours??

No im not that young i remember cassettes and i remeber record players and VHS. My dad had a lovely sound system when he was younger and was into his music, he kept it with all his speaker's when i was growing up. Now its all download which i do!!!

No

I see your tapes and raise you some 8 tracks! Clearing a flat from a tenant that did a runner they were the only interesting things left behind. Sadly not much value in them yet!

No

Are you sure??
Only reason I ask is the Haircut 100 tape, which kinda sounds about right

It was a picture i saw on FB a few days earlier. I for one had never heard of Haircut prior to this thread, kinda wish that was still the case after watch that clip

So I need to buy a 4k cassette deck with high speed dubbing is the general consensus

yeah sorry dude, bit of a thread hijack!

Your TV getting relegated to the kitchen is as big and newer than the TV I have, so I'm of no use at all.
