    Not everyone is obsessed with having the biggest screen possible.

    Or sitting in exactly the 'sweet spot'. I sit 3.5m and, lordy lord, HWMBO sits 2.5m from out 48 incher.

    Isn’t 4.5m a bit too far away for a 55’? I’m sure it’ll be fine but you could go closer without seeing pixels or other undesirable detail if you wanted to couldn’t you?

    The layout of the room makes a corner setting the only practical location together with the access door from the hall being directly opposite the fireplace making seating opposite impossible to wall mount over the fire. . 55" is the max size I can use. I used to have a problem with very tiny print. I can read every thing. I do have 9 speakers plus a sub because of the awkward shape.

    I can get closer but that puts a chair in the middle of the room.

    I’m not obsessed but I have the space to wall mount a 65” and 12’ should be ok for viewing distance. I’m going to rearrange the layout of the room entirely to accommodate the 65” tv. I did consider a 55” because I could just about fit it in the space my 40” tv is now but I think the room will work better with the new layout. I’ve had this layout in my living room since I moved here 2010 so a change will be good. I’ve got awkwardly situated doors too so my tv is currently near the corner of the room. I’m not in a hurry to buy, I need to look at more TVs before deciding.
