    How about uncompressed 4k before going to even more compression 8k. I have seen uncompressed 8k content on an 8k TV. I couldn’t tell the difference between it and a good quality 4k picture, and I’m admittedly a quality snob. I can tell the difference in 1080 vs 4k pretty easily even on cheap tvs, it’s just virtually non existent at 8k vs 4k in tv sizes up to 80 inch beyond viewing inches away from the screen.







  • Buy good quality air filters (highest particle rating). Just the dust control alone will make a huge difference, especially in an older home.

    • One good power drill

    • One good set of driving bits

    • One good set of drill bits

    • Duct tape

    • Lubricating oil (wd40 or a 3in1 style oil)

    • Hammer

    • Drywall anchors for having heavier items

    • Kit of random screws and nails

    • Flashlight

    • Fire extinguisher

    • Old towels (for WHEN you spring a leak)

    • Measuring tape

    • Channel lock wrench (the kind that can be various sizes)

    • Wrench/socket set

    This will cover a LOT of issues. Outside the drill/bits feel free to cheap out on tools. When they break, then replace with better quality
