It came last night at 7pm so I have not even had a chance to open the box. It is my first LG as well, typically I bought Samsung. All the reviews were stellar across the board and for the money it seemed like the best option. I really wanted 60in but there was nothing that I liked. Hopefully I can get it going tonight.

Thats awesome. Hopefully it is as good as the reviews say. There is no reason to suggest it won't be. I have a Samsung and a Sony right now. I used to strictly get Samsungs, but their QC has fallen off a cliff.

It is not a very large room and maybe only 10ft from the main viewing spot. Did you get one? What are your impressions on the sound? I did not set it up yet, do you have any recommendations? Thanks.
I am running it through a Denon receiver and speakers I already had, so can't really comment on the TV sound. I also use Apple TV but played around a little with the TVs native streaming capability and it seems pretty good. The only set up advice is to follow the directions for getting it out of the box and the rest is pretty easy.

That's really cool. I am having a custom kitchen table and bench built from 2.5in thick reclaimed pine and steel box tubing U shaped legs. I should have it by the end of July. Super excited

We actually ordered that from someone on Etsy. Fingers crossed it looks as good upon delivery as it does in pictures.

I think a modern RD should be able to yell, "Copper KA!!" or something better than a tweety bird song.

I was tired of setting up some sort of bench or working on the floor so I bought myself a folding stand for my Milwaukee cordless miter saw. I grabbed the one that was still wrapped in the shipping plastic so I knew nobody was in the box before me. FML. It has a small defect in one of the locking thumbscrews that keeps the extending arm locked in place. It doesn't lock the arm in place. The one job that thumbscrew had and it failed miserably. I guess I'll be heading back to Home Cheapo tomorrow to exchange it.
