Little disappointed that my old Sony KDL-40S5100 TV died yesterday. As some of you may know I have been wanting to upgrade both my Denon 3805 and my S5100 for a couple of years now but they were both working flawlessly so I had a hard time justifying the cost. I've had my eye on the LG C7, C8, C9 but have to wonder if it's worth it. I suspect I could get a TV with significantly better picture quality than the S5100 for a lower price today than what I paid for the Sony 12 years ago. I also have to say that I liked the picture on the Sony, Maybe I was just accustomed to it and don't know what I was missing or I just happened to tweak the picture quality to my liking. My Panasonic TC-L32C3 is still going strong and I love the picture, I had set up the Sony and Panasonic side by side until I got the picture looking the same on both.
So looking for suggestions. Thinking I'd like to stay in the, oh, 40" to maybe 55" range and to stay under $2K. Though I do have to wonder, if based on my last two televisions, do I have to spend 2k or 1.4k to be happy or would a $300 - $500 49" LG Nano XXXXXXX whatever fit the bill?
