From your original post you only mentioned that you wanted it mainly for media, but as you now mention 4k 120hz, hints to me that top gaming features is a priority also. Would you say it's as much as 50/50 split cause then my recommendation will change to LG instead.
Thanks for taking the time to entertain my decision.
Absolutely love a good recliner. Adds so much to the experience.
Not a sale compared to current prices for the 65 inch unless theyre throwing in some extras. $1800 is the current price of the C1/A80J at Amazon for the past month.costco will be selling LG C1s starting Oct 27th at a further discounted price. Best Buy and Target match Costco if they are in the same area. Sale goes on till Nov 21st

Best Buy is a good one to buy from, since their warranty package (expensive) for 5 years or w/e covers burnin, while the other places do NOT cover burn in.
FWIW my 5 year old B7 finally started developing burn in this year in the last month, after nearly 18k hours being on. Good trade off, I'm going to likely buy a new 77 next month.

Going to have a few beers now and make a decision tonight. No matter what, I feel like you can’t really go wrong, especially at these newer price points.
Agree that the LG should be the most balanced choice for you. If you would have been mostly into movies and Tv-series then it would have been my original recommendation of the A80J.
Also forgot to mention that Sony have an edge with their newly implemented XR processing chip, and it's not a gimmick. It really delivers a really sharp an almost three-dimensional like image in certain HDR scenes. Also if you would compare a 65" vs 77" vs 83" size side by side you would notice that the 65" would look sharper compared to the bigger sizes. Pretty obvious when the same resolution on a bigger screen equals lower PPI. The XR processor however helps retain the same sharpness on bigger sizes.
Wouldn’t have thought that. Probably should have asked this first, what TV do you have and size?
Im kind of like a "tv gypsie" constantly on the move between different Tv's. Latest Tv I had was the 65" A80J, excellent Tv but in the end I sent it back due to it being too small in size, ABL issue and lack of full VRR. Picturewise it is the best image so far, only bested by A90J in specular highlights. Im waiting to see if Sony release a fix for VRR and might go the A90J 83" route when they drop in price and will then compare it to next years follow up of the A80J , if that one is released in an 83" version.
Sorry can't help you with that, I don't reside in the US and dont use tuner functions myself, only streaming services.
Pretty sure I’m sold on the 77” A80J. Thanks for your help and insight. Decided I’m going to upgrade my receiver for my 7.1.2 setup and upgrade the bias lighting with some hue lights so I’m in for a decent chunk of $.
