kimchr: The lighting in my living room is less than ideal for photographing
I don't think the room lighting is your problem. What is that setup about? Aside from the box (why??), what a ridiculous place for a lamp. And, what I presume are speakers adjacent to each other. Do you know anything about sound distribution?
Finally, and this is I acknowledge a personal opinion, the TV is too high.
Envious of the TV though suggest that you give it to me. I will make a contribution towards shipping costs and post a picture when installed.
