WEBVTT

00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:06.319
there are a couple of major trend lines that we can follow in my life one is

00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:11.200
that as my kids get older they're getting louder and more annoying meaning

00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:15.360
that i'm gonna need a quiet place to just go and

00:00:13.120 --> 00:00:19.680
spend time just with myself where they can't bother me number two is that the

00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:23.119
transportation industry is changing to the point where we're not gonna need

00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:27.920
personal vehicles anymore once autonomous cars take over the world so

00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:32.960
we're gonna get right out ahead of both of those trend lines and sponsored by lg

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:39.760
i am going to be converting one of the base of my two-car garage into

00:00:36.559 --> 00:00:42.079
a home theater setup and because i'm a

00:00:39.760 --> 00:00:49.780
cheapskate we're gonna be doing it as cheaply as possible

00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:59.120
a few things make me feel more suburban than cleaning out my garage

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:02.559
don't worry this is not used my kids aren't even in diapers anymore though

00:01:00.879 --> 00:01:05.920
paintball gear i haven't touched in years

00:01:04.720 --> 00:01:11.200
next thing i just want to make the space like a

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:13.600
little bit more livable right now it

00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:18.960
looks very garagey and

00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:21.040
cobwebby you know stuff like that

00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:24.320
thankfully for that there's the dyson v10 no i'm just

00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:28.640
kidding guys i'd probably fill up the reservoir on

00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:31.360
that thing like four times vacuuming this place out

00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:38.479
now under normal circumstances for a job this small you would just break out the

00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:41.600
brush and roller but uh i treated myself to an airless sprayer

00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:47.520
recently so we're gonna spray it

00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:47.520
this may be a mistake

00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.840
it's been a while since i've used this thing so this could be interesting the

00:01:54.880 --> 00:02:00.880
most important thing when you're painting though is always to wear the proper attire ltdstore.com actually i

00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:05.920
really shouldn't wear this i don't want to destroy it no one ever talks about this

00:02:03.520 --> 00:02:09.679
but guys this is what happens to every shirt that you bring home for someone

00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:13.040
from your vacation they don't care about your vacation

00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:16.720
well it's been a while so let's start with the most critical

00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:22.840
parts that we're very likely to see in the finished project here just kidding

00:02:18.959 --> 00:02:22.840
let's go with the top of this

00:02:22.959 --> 00:02:28.080
now normally i would mock anyone who suggests just lay it on thick and do it

00:02:26.959 --> 00:02:34.879
in one coat but we're in a bit of a hurry here so we're just going to lay it on thick and do it in one coat

00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:40.400
okay no problem

00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:45.519
so for anyone who was wondering if it was worth it to set up the sprayer

00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:49.319
the answer is oh hard to say

00:02:53.519 --> 00:02:57.840
is that even an improvement was that even like worthwhile

00:02:56.640 --> 00:03:00.319
because it's hard to tell if we don't take this off

00:03:01.200 --> 00:03:09.560
yeah that does look better doesn't it let's bring in the tv so this oh my

00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:14.000
goodness it's 120 pounds is lg's newest

00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:17.360
2019 nano cell and this is the biggest

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:21.599
tv that i will have ever had in my house

00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:22.800
it is 86 inches and even lg knows that

00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:27.920
this thing is a two-hander if you know what i mean okay so are you

00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:31.440
actually reading the instructions for a chain i mean this thing is so big and so

00:03:29.760 --> 00:03:34.640
heavy we might actually need to read the instructions right unpack it

00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:40.640
well it looks like it's one of it's obviously one of the boxes that you take off over the top okay but it also says

00:03:38.239 --> 00:03:45.440
that you should open this first grab the manual look at the manual

00:03:43.519 --> 00:03:49.280
oh all right there's a picture of a guy holding a square i think he's reading

00:03:49.440 --> 00:03:56.400
i mean there's so much box look at this you have to like walk around it you have to

00:03:54.080 --> 00:04:01.120
travel have we reached a practical limit to how big tvs can be before people

00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:05.200
cannot transport them into their homes this one also has a feature that lg

00:04:02.799 --> 00:04:08.959
calls nano accuracy which is all about keeping the colors looking the same

00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:13.360
regardless of how wide your viewing angle is and actually you know it's

00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:19.040
funny you you would think that we wouldn't need that in a room this size

00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:23.040
but with a tv this size sitting dead center you could be looking at the top

00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:25.440
corner of it from a 15 degree angle especially if we

00:04:24.320 --> 00:04:28.560
have to get closer to it than you normally would because this is a huge tv

00:04:27.520 --> 00:04:32.400
and not not that big of a room yeah

00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:36.800
space tv the tv from space you know what i

00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:41.199
actually think i remember why they put them in these if they're being shipped

00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:46.160
by container if you end up in the top container you can actually get a lot of

00:04:43.840 --> 00:04:51.919
sun and a lot of heat so they roast the tv like a potato no no the shiny side's

00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:54.479
on the outside james i hope that's not how you roast your

00:04:53.280 --> 00:04:58.320
chicken because you've been eating a lot of raw chicken dude

00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:02.720
so the instructions say we need a table to set it up fortunately

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:06.960
we've also got furniture for this setup here i think we have a coffee table and

00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:10.880
this thing's so big though it's it's gonna just dwarf the coffee table

00:05:09.039 --> 00:05:13.680
we can make it work so i figured since we have this as our backdrop yeah i

00:05:12.880 --> 00:05:20.160
thought i would double down on the old wood and go for a complete like 90s aesthetic

00:05:18.080 --> 00:05:25.360
with this furniture and by 90s i mean it was old in the 90s i'm into old wood hit

00:05:22.840 --> 00:05:28.970
it i haven't actually seen all the furniture yet so uh

00:05:27.919 --> 00:05:32.000
oh wow

00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:37.840
so you want this to look like someone's man cave

00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:41.600
full of the cast off furniture they picked up on craigslist for free

00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:48.639
30 years ago i want it to be like the basement in that 70s show

00:05:45.280 --> 00:05:52.160
i mean the thing is 86 inches you know

00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:53.120
sounds like 30 more than 65 inches but

00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:58.160
it's not it is a lot bigger

00:05:55.759 --> 00:06:00.960
is this even wide enough did we check this before we end up for the stand got

00:06:00.320 --> 00:06:03.280
it okay

00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:12.000
it's only about two inches different all right very sure this is not the

00:06:07.520 --> 00:06:12.000
right way to do this okay here we go

00:06:15.840 --> 00:06:22.400
that's some good screwing thanks i thought you'd like it do you want some

00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:26.240
depth of field some depth of field you want to be able to walk but behind and

00:06:23.919 --> 00:06:29.039
do the cables easily oh no because we can just open the door

00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:36.000
what's up now yes and one two three oops

00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:42.240
oh thanks andy this is a three-person job

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:45.759
setting up this tv i'm trying to use my forearm against the

00:06:43.919 --> 00:06:49.039
panel so it's not too much pressure in a small area

00:06:46.960 --> 00:06:52.960
oh my goodness is this stand gonna fit on this thing like is it deep close we

00:06:51.039 --> 00:06:55.360
already hitting the roof is it on there barely

00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:06.240
that is a lot of tv it actually looks so thin relative to

00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:09.919
how wide it is yeah even though it's not thin at all

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:14.720
i'm okay to be i'm not saying it's unreasonable like it's got full array local dimming so i understand like it

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:19.680
has to be a little bit thicker you get that contrast but like it's not thin by

00:07:17.840 --> 00:07:23.520
today's standards yeah compared to like algae yeah uh

00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:27.120
james do we have any other equipment that we're planning to hook up to this thing

00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:31.840
or what it's a sound bar right i don't know where we're gonna put

00:07:30.880 --> 00:07:36.319
it right this stand's really big

00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:39.680
well the tv is really big and naturally this is like

00:07:37.599 --> 00:07:46.160
not just some pin or little sound bar it's dolby atmos 570 watt the biggest baddest

00:07:43.919 --> 00:07:51.440
one they make yeah perfect that's all right cool i mean it's cool but it's

00:07:48.479 --> 00:07:55.919
like where did we put it now tell me was your idea to mount the sound bar to the

00:07:53.440 --> 00:08:00.720
front of this my idea is really stupid okay it's not like really usable okay

00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:03.039
you grab this end yeah and go over there yeah

00:08:03.440 --> 00:08:09.759
pull out your drawer pull out your drawer i'm not pulling off my drawer

00:08:07.919 --> 00:08:11.680
i will humor you but we're not doing this

00:08:10.960 --> 00:08:17.360
no that's terrible i mean it's on there

00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:21.360
this is a very cool feature wow but i gotta say it feels a little

00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:25.759
out of place in the garage no man we're classing up the drive just wait

00:08:23.520 --> 00:08:30.479
classing up the joint speaking of clasping up the joint uh why don't we go

00:08:27.919 --> 00:08:33.919
ahead and roll out the the welcome rug here

00:08:31.520 --> 00:08:40.240
this this is not the uh it's not awe-inspiring i think it might be

00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:42.719
smaller than the tv one two row

00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:46.959
it's pretty small we need some like

00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:51.920
wall hangings and like we got to class it up another notch or two okay well i

00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:56.160
brought some artworks so okay so if i have this way off the wall like

00:08:53.760 --> 00:09:01.519
that is that cheating like if freaking sauron is like saruman whatever okay uh

00:09:00.160 --> 00:09:04.640
i have some nails should we just put nails on the wall and mount some mount

00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:12.320
some pictures it's not like the wall's not full holes anymore nails you don't want to ruin the wall we could put

00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:12.320
screws in this wall for all i care

00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:18.480
the height has been chosen that's great all right sorry man

00:09:16.880 --> 00:09:24.240
draggy boy the fiercest

00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:27.120
no don't stop well it ain't perfect

00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:29.680
but given our budgetary constraints and our refusal to use a tape measure

00:09:28.800 --> 00:09:35.600
yeah it's not bad so something we haven't actually

00:09:33.680 --> 00:09:39.920
made a point of clarifying up until this point in the video is that part of the

00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:44.160
deal here is we're doing all this on a shoestring budget think about it

00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:47.440
you want to build the ultimate garage home theater setup you don't want to

00:09:45.760 --> 00:09:51.680
spend a bunch of money furnishing your garage you want to spend that money on

00:09:49.680 --> 00:09:58.000
like the best possible av setup so our total cost for all this

00:09:55.839 --> 00:10:02.000
furniture is what uh well

00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:06.399
that was 50 canadian that table was 30 and the rug was 70. everything else is

00:10:03.920 --> 00:10:10.320
free well this is pretty cool yeah i figured uh even if none of us are

00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:15.120
really into sports ball it's a man cave

00:10:11.920 --> 00:10:18.560
little league sports ball mind you

00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:20.959
the only baseball us dad's watch

00:10:18.560 --> 00:10:24.480
this couch stinks in the listing it was inside a house and actually looked

00:10:22.640 --> 00:10:27.920
purple but then when i got there he's like yeah it's outside and it had been

00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:32.000
raining so with that said you know i still think

00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:35.440
our setup here is representative of what you could get if you just if you have a

00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:39.680
little bit more time to vet your craigslist sellers there was a lot of

00:10:38.079 --> 00:10:46.000
free couches on there actually the pillow doesn't even smell that bad all right fine pillow

00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:49.839
there's only one do we have like a place to put the lamp or had we not really

00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:54.640
gotten that far okay hold on hold on oh wow we got an end table for free no

00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:59.760
this was 30 bucks oh okay all right for it to really feel like a 90s

00:10:57.040 --> 00:11:05.120
kind of your parents friends house an ashtray

00:11:02.079 --> 00:11:06.079
that is exactly the ashtray that was in

00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:11.519
every yeah every 90s living room so james i

00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:15.040
can live with the wall but i really don't think we can leave the floor like

00:11:12.880 --> 00:11:20.480
this here help me roll this up we paid 70 for this used ikea carpet

00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:25.200
yeah that's kind of brutal actually no take backs how did i spend 70 on this

00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:29.200
this thing sucks okay

00:11:27.040 --> 00:11:32.240
this totally is not going to go with the room

00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:35.920
but i think it's better than having what we had and i don't think my

00:11:34.560 --> 00:11:42.480
wife will notice it missing from the living room this is modern

00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:46.399
i'm on a niche i've got some modern lego pieces in it so it just popped up asking

00:11:44.800 --> 00:11:51.600
us about google assistant so this thing has google assistant it has us

00:11:49.040 --> 00:11:54.880
um it's also got airplay 2 which is pretty sweet so all the latest smart tv

00:11:53.839 --> 00:11:58.720
features we're just going to go ahead and update the firmware and then we're

00:11:56.880 --> 00:12:03.120
pretty close to ready to rock actually okay so i think that's it

00:12:01.040 --> 00:12:05.680
it's so big this is like the equivalent of sitting

00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:11.360
in a theater like the distance wise this is crazy

00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:16.340
pizza's here oh hold on hold on no no wait i got this okay okay

00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:18.560
open the odyssey garage door

00:12:18.560 --> 00:12:26.079
come on in what's up we're just uh watching a movie yeah get

00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:30.240
in the garage dude thank you oh you take that yeah yeah

00:12:27.920 --> 00:12:33.440
yeah i figured that was happening thank you very much have a good night all

00:12:31.680 --> 00:12:36.320
right take care okay should we fire up something with HDR yeah and crank the

00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:40.480
sound sure the white's pretty bright hey you

00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:46.000
know what's really nice about good full array local dimming is you actually get

00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:50.639
black bars instead of gray glowy bluey bars from sitting here

00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:54.880
those black bars are as black as the sound bars yeah i love the amount of

00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:58.320
detail in this movie just the way that the pieces have fingerprints on them and

00:12:56.560 --> 00:13:01.760
stuff i want to eat some pizza we haven't actually eaten any pizza yet

00:13:02.160 --> 00:13:07.040
now we want to play some games but we need to wait for this xbox update but

00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:10.639
that's fine because it actually gives me an opportunity to talk about some of the

00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:15.360
cool features this tv has for gaming so because it's equipped with HDMI 2.1 that

00:13:13.680 --> 00:13:22.240
means you've got variable refresh rate support not just for xboxes but also

00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:27.920
devices that support HDMI vrr so what's cool is all for the HDMI ports will go

00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:31.279
okay hey this is a latency sensitive application

00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:36.160
boom low latency mode pretty freaking awesome and they claim

00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:42.399
about 15 to 16 milliseconds of input lag which is i mean that's down to

00:13:38.800 --> 00:13:42.399
one frame pretty awesome

00:13:44.720 --> 00:13:51.200
it is amazing how noticeable it is

00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:55.839
when you're looking at 1080p content on a screen this big

00:13:53.680 --> 00:14:00.480
we definitely should have brought an xbox one x

00:13:57.600 --> 00:14:04.399
i can't get over how big the screen is dude you should rent out this garage we

00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:07.600
got that mini fridge just get a hot plate in here

00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:09.600
it's a sick setup wow

00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:14.800
oh he's on fire that's cool yeah that looks awesome oh it's freaking

00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:19.040
awesome so that's it for a couple hundred bucks

00:14:17.199 --> 00:14:22.560
if we factor in that we you know borrowed art from the office and we

00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:28.160
would have had to obtain like some posters and cheap frames i am

00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:31.440
blown away by how usable this is

00:14:29.680 --> 00:14:34.959
and the cool thing is because we're in a garage which is inherently full of

00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:39.199
clutter we actually don't end up with a lot of

00:14:37.199 --> 00:14:43.839
the audio echoing that you might normally deal with with an open room

00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:48.560
with a concrete floor so uh massive shout out to lg for hooking us up with

00:14:45.920 --> 00:14:51.360
of course the tech aspect of this which was obviously more than a couple hundred

00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:55.920
bucks and of course sponsoring this video thanks to you guys for watching

00:14:53.680 --> 00:14:58.959
and i think that pretty much wraps it you know this turned out so good i think

00:14:57.920 --> 00:15:05.760
i might i might just not leave you actually look like a homeless person

00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:09.680
on my couch i'm not homeless i live here now
