It is a new year and manufacturers are introducing new TVs on the market after they sold out of their old ones during after holiday TV sales. And you might think it is a good idea to update your old set and to purchase a Smart TV that comes pre-packed with streaming services and maybe a larger size with that perfect picture that feels like you are in the middle of the action. But before you step into the store you might want to better understand the differences in technology of the TVs on the market.

The Wesley United Methodist Church in Edison, NJ has a long and narrow sanctuary which is a problem for worshippers towards the back to see and hear what is going on at the front.  Thanks to generous donors the church installed a new sound system and two 75” diagonal televisions upfront at a level where even the last row can see and hear the service.

If you are a college basketball fan this is your Super Bowl.  The pinnacle of college basketball with 68 teams competing for the title of National Champions. Added to this excitement is the side story of Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski going for his 6^th championship win before he hangs up his clipboard and retires.

Twas the month before Christmas that the church decided to purchase a new sound and video system so that those in the back rows can clearly see and hear the pastor speak up front. However, once the equipment was installed, they found that there was a great deal of glare on the TV screen coming from the lights surrounding the TV. Most pews from the middle rows to the back mostly saw reflections from the lights above, and sunlight coming in through the windows.
