Great video, i apprechated the serial killer breathing sound effect hidden in there! A deep dive into the benefits of the elite controller would be interesting.
thanks so much for the video. Among all LG C2 videos you have the most unique one coz you have set it up with Arc and thanks for the idea of Lack shelf. It looks much cleaner and exactly what I am looking for.
I have this same setup and love it, few recommendations that I learned along the way with this setup, if you plug a usb/Ethernet adapter into your tv usb port you can hard wire your Ethernet and it goes above the maximum 100mbps limit on the Ethernet port. - my internet is 300mbps. Also if you want a cleaner set up you can flush mount the tv at just the right height to not be in the way of the Sonos arc and then place the arc under the tv to hide cables. Also get Sonos one SLs for rears it makes a huge different for your movie experiences with the surround sound.
Thanks for watching Cody! Thanks for the info those are great suggestions! I plan on making some of those changes like mounting and possibly the rears in the future but was waiting until we do the kitchen renovation since it’s right opposite this and I think I’d have to mount one SLs high on the wall behind which means wiring in some power up there. Nice hack with the usb to Ethernet too!
@@LovingTechLife no problem! For the rears you want them about seated head height and off to the sides at 45 degrees pointed towards your viewing spot if possible. I used two book shelves at opposite sides around the 40” height and hid the cords behind the units. You do need to plug them in so you may need to get creative. I used a white conduit at the top of my baseboard to hide the one cord. And also for the mount any cheap one works fine from Amazon just check the reviews.
I'm renovating my house and it's old so this is giving some good ideas for set-up. I'm looking at wall mounting the TV to be able to really swing out but I haven't totally resolved the sound system placement. I'll keep you updated. Also going for a minimalist approach.
@@LovingTechLife "Sound" - typo and auto-correct going mad. I've a nice sound bar to add to a wall unit I'm designing. It'll take a TV, storage and an artificial fireplace, etc
Sharing the knowledge as always David - great video. Love the set up but it's a bit too tidy for me. I like the raw look of a cable here and there. Where do I plug in my NES ? 😉
I’m sure your wife would appreciate a tidy setup in the living room! 😅 NES can be accommodated! NES -> Upscaler of your choosing -> HDMI port Games look so good on an OLED!
Cheers for this 👍🏻 I've just bought the arc and two sonos 1 sl speakers. I have the same TV although mine is only the 55" can't wait to hear what this will sound like 👌🏻

I have a question: Google play music store changed from purchase and play to subscription only few years back. Thus, I have a truck load of music that was taken out sitting as mp3. Is there a way I can set it up in a common drive to play on sonos in different rooms?
Yes you can actually from memory there’s an option on the Sonos App to add your own media sources like a PC on the network with all the music files on a hdd. Message me on Instagram or Twitter and I’ll send you a screen shot of the page on the app when I’m at home in the network. It was either the Sonos app or Alexa or LG TV os that I say it 😅
@@LovingTechLife lol, I ll ping you on instagram. I cancelled my Twitter in rage when tesla cancelled my reservation while I was out of the country. ..🤣
Thanks for the info. I’m looking for something like this. Has the ikea shelf held up fine with the weight of the TV? Not sure if the shelf core is solid or what it’s made of? I have LG OLED 77 inch but it seems like this shelf would also work with it being just big enough. Thanks!
Hey JB! I’ve had the tv in this IKEA unit for a couple of years with no issues. I imagine it made from mdf. The unit is really two halves side by side and between that and the weight distribution of the tv base and shelf underneath the structure holds without any issues with the unit. Hope this helps!
The cabinet in the video is 2.4m/ 7.78ft and my sitting position is about 2.5m / 8ft from the tv to my head. The room is wider on the left side of the tv by another 2.5 meters but we have a dining table there. I guess you could say the width we allow for the tv area is close to 3m/ 9.84ft because that’s how wide the floor mat is. Does that help?
@@LovingTechLife helped a lot! Ordered the LG C2 65 on Monday, arrived today and have it set up. Completely blown away. Thank you for helping me convince the missus the 65 wouldn't be too big 😂
Hey Giacinto! Yes I do have a Pulse 3D and it was all I used with the PS5 for a while. Particularly at the time of making this video since it was mainly at my desk setup where I didn’t have any speakers for it. I like the pulse 3D, surprised by the sound you get for the money and it really comes into its own with the 3D tempest sound engine supported games. The Rig 800 is still that much more comfortable though as it should be for the money!
@@LovingTechLife I like the Pulse 3D but I used it rarely having a Sonos Arc + Sub + 2 Play:3 as rears. Not sure headset 3D audio can ever compete with a proper home theatre

Love the way all your cabling is hidden and the minimalist set up .
Thanks Ray!!
Fantastic setup. Think I might add Sonos Arc to my setup since i just moved into a bigger house and have a big living room now.
Awesome! I love the Arc!
Thanks for watching!
Samsung q950a or b, cheaper and better
Looks like a great bit of kit M 👍🏻
Minimalist, yet fully loaded!!
Nice video too!!
Thanks for watching Sunny! Yeah you make the most of the space you have 😅

Love the minimalist gaming setup, I need to invest in a soundbar!
Thanks for watching Brian, yeah make sure you do your research on the soundbar they vary wildly!
Definitely get a soundbar! I have a Bose one..when you switch back to the TV audio it’s incredible how crappy the sound is!
Agreed!!!

That’s awesome! It’ll make a massive difference over the TV speakers.
Good work, picked up a set of those headphones, nice.
Cool! the LX model I have or the one with the base station?
Appreciate the wife friendly set up 😂🤣
You’re welcome! 😅
omg thank you so much for the ideas
You’re welcome thank you for watching!
My setup is 77 lg CX with sonos arc, sub, and two surround speakers. Also Xbox series X.
Hey @user-gz6gv2os2m! that's awesome, it's like mine but upgraded lol
What games you play the most on it?
@@LovingTechLife most of the time I’m playing games that push the limits of the system. I also use it primarily for movies
@@LovingTechLifewhat distance are you from the set?
@@user-gz6gv2os2m My sitting position is about 2.5m / 8ft from the tv to my head.
@@LovingTechLife thanks. I’m about 10 feet away from my 77 inch. Perfect!
Where did you get the stand that raises your tv? Thanks!

No but I can’t use the speakers if I need to be quiet! 😅
So annoying the TV is so low and needs a lift for the Arc
Yes, unfortunately and LG have only started to realise this recently and made a change to the C2 stand but then only in the 77” model!!
