I was really hoping for something more than in the thousands range, not tens or hundreds of thousands :biggrin:

Although Vizio is known for making affordable 4K TVs, the manufacturer's also busy exploring other areas. Revealed back in April, its Reference Series television sets are designed for home entertainment buffs, featuring Dolby's Vision high-dynamic-range (HDR) imaging technology -- which promises astonishing colors, contrast and brightness. Vizio's making its Reference Series available in two sizes, 65- and 120-inch, and they are both LED-backlit, Smart UHD TVs with Dolby and DTS sound options to boot. If you're interested, be prepare to break the bank: The 65-inch model costs $6,000, while the bigger 120-inch is priced at a whopping $130,000. You can order either one now from Vizio's site.

Oh, hell no. First of all, $130K is outrageous for any TV. Secondly, no one is going to pay $130K for a Vizio. And lastly, $130K for an LCD is dumb. It should be OLED or bust.

I'm curious as to just how "reference" the PQ is, especially with the HDR feature. I mean...you can get a 4K JVC LED projector for $5k, or even a high-end one for $20k or so. And if you do have that money to burn, you can get a 3-chip 4K LED projector for the same price that can shoot up to a 36-foot screen: (8' diagonal shown in the link below)

Anybody who would buy this over a 4K projector is a truly a world class clown.

I can get larger 4k for maybe 2k with a projector. Not interested.

You'd think the promo video for a 4K TV would be available in 4K.
