Must have accessories for improved system performance


Would image clarity or definition be #1? Color quality? Contrast? Lifelike depth of field perspective?

@addpowr  the general conclusion was that the pixels are currently small enough that it's not able to be detected by the human eye. So it's more marketing than practicle benifit. Many say that improving contrast and color depth has a bigger impact than increasing resolution beyond 4K.

However, If budget allows and you’re building a serious home theater, you could pick an 8K TV now, with the mindset that you’ll get more “future benefit” as 8K content becomes more common.

I’m not a videophile, but if I was I suspect it’d be a lot like the various aspects of sound are for an audiophile and you want it all so picking a #1 is kinda tough.  That said, and as with audio, I’d want balance so that all those aspects were at a similar level and one wasn’t clearly inferior or that’d bug the crap outta me.  When I listen to my audio system I like feeling like I’m experiencing the performance without thinking about individual sound characteristics and pretty sure I’d feel the same way about high-end video and just wanna get lost in the movie without being distracted by noticing any one aspect of the picture.  Just my take on it anyway. 

@soix  You hit the nail on the head. The system should allow one to forget about the objective qualities and instead get "lost" or immersed in the sensory experience itself. That is what it's all about, right?
