Just had my old dumb LG TV die after 9 years of working just dandy. I lack the desire to root around for a dead capacitor so I am currently in the market for an approximate replacement to act as the display for my Linux media center in my living room. I figure this is the right crowd for finding a non-invasive TV so my Linux machine can be the brains. I trust modern Tvs less and less.
Desired features
55"
Non terrible audio
As dumb of hardware/software as reasonably achievable
i searched for 55 inch dumb tv on amazon and found this: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Business-Software-Speakers-LH55BETHLGFXGO/dp/B08651PB1J/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=3CGW6YLKH5VBI&keywords=dumb+tv+55+inch&qid=1688732714&sprefix=dumb+tv+55+inch%2Caps%2C151&sr=8-3
not sure how much you’re wanting to pay, but this doesn’t sound too bad. I’m looking to upgrade soon myself. I have a 40 inch dumb 1080 Element TV. It works well still, but wanting bigger and 4k. I’ll probably move the one i currently have to my son’s room.
edit: there are some better deals I think. That was just one of the first links. It’s only 60hz, you might find one that’s 120hz for not much more.
