I BOUGHT The BIGGEST TV Best Buy Would SELL Me (F-250 Required) 

What America really wants to know is: are you putting a soft serve ice cream machine in the kitchen so your dad will have fresh ice cream when he visits? Also, we need your dad to make an appearance again soon. We miss Ross.

That's 4,000 sq ft of pure unadulterated "man-cave". This far exceeds the allowable footage that most guys can claim for themselves. JR is living the dream. Just watch him go!🙂

It's funny how TVs are never too big. When I was a kid 27 was the biggest, and your parents made you sit 15ft away. My first big LCD was a 40 (and cost way more than that 100") which is still in my bedroom and seems tiny, and my current one is a 65 and sometimes I wish I got a 75.

The only thing you need now is that huge speaker from Back to The Future 1!😁

The drywall sanding dust will love that new tv.

13:37 - that lady turned into a guy!

Firstly, I work for Richer Sounds in the UK and we sell those Hisense sets, over the years their range keeps improving and these sets are amazing value now. Classy finish and panel quality every bit as good as an LG or Samsung. Secondly, the biggest set we've hung on the wall in our store was a 75 inch and that took three people to get done, two to hold up, one to guide onto the mount and put in the mains and HDMI so well done to you and Gabe, believe me, I've been there and felt your pain!

The biggest house I ever worked on was 30,000 sq ft. It had a two lane bowling alley, elevator and underground tennis court and indoor swimming pool The main part of the house used 535 yards of concrete with 12 ft walls and a racquetball court in the back and 15 fireplaces. It was built on 3- 5 acre lots. In 1980, the house cost $15,000,000 to build. It was sold 10 yrs later for $40,000,000!!!

I helped a friend of mine, install one of those. But it was four of us three of us holding the television and one guiding us to the bracketing system. It actually went pretty quick with the fourth person taking care of the mounting part. I highly recommend using more than two people.

27:48 JR trying the new yoga pose called upward TV. 🤣😂🤣😂

I absolutely need that tv in my house just because 😂😂

I would put that mega TV in an unused room until you finish the living room

That intro sounded like Cleetus Mcfarland

ya know a quick trip to harbor freight to pick up one of their lifting tables and hanging that tv woulda been a breeze

I think Gabe is stronger than JR. LOL.

Hef's Mansion was 22,000 ft, and that was just the main building. It was surrounded by other buildings plus a connection to the huge house next door. Huge place!

Poor JR couldn't hardly get his side as high as Gabes, while telling him he needed to go up! It's not just one guy, by the way!

Gabe is like "I got this"

The term, “MORE POWER” to JR applies to EVERYTHING engines, televisions, sound systems, plumbing you name it and he’s going to find a way to get more power from it along with making it as efficient as it can be.

Accent lighting? I’m sure Hugh Hefner would call it “mood lighting” and he would be very envious of the tech in your home. 4000 is not small, so call it whatever your want!

My company just bought one of those TV's on Amazon. It was 54% off. $5000 TV for $2300.

I mount TVs as a side job. I had one once that was super crooked. I had a level on it and it was perfect. I measured it from the bottom corners to the floor and it was perfect. Then I got up on a ladder and that was when I could see that the actual ceiling was very sloped. This old 1940s house had settled over the years, and they fixed the level of the floors when they renovated the house, but not the ceiling. I had to use a tape measure to re-do the wall mount level in relation to the slope of the ceiling. Otherwise it 'looked' super crooked.

You guys survived a Charlie Foxtrot w/ that big ass TV. LOL !!!!

Hisense TV’s are junk. I will never buy one again. Mine only lasted 12 months before an LED died inside. I replaced the LED strip but if it breaks again, it’s heading to the landfill.

4k sq feet is a big house. Hanging that tv was a job. I can see on Super Bowl Sunday, four guys there: JR, Gabe, Eric and Jake all drinking energy drinks and eating Taco Bell take out. Thank goodness you did not put mirrors on the ceiling. Mood lighting is cool, reminds me of the new airplanes that can change the color of the lights during the flight.

why is the midwest obsessed with textured ceilings ? its so low end on the east coast

Loved the longer episode keep them this long all the time if possible got alot done on this episode also!!!!!!! The new tv is awsome

Appreciate everything you do. 35min JR video makes a rough day not as... rough. Thank you!

John Ross is never coming out of the closet now

Did you do a whole house surge protector? Lightning is a thing in Kansas (at least on the family farm in N. KS).

Questions for JR: 1) Does any of the bathrooms work? No 2) Do you have a place to sleep? No 3) Do you have a place to cook and eat? No JR: Do you want to see my new 100 inch tv? Classic guy

JR, is one ass backwards dude. He spends more money on electronic upgrades than he does the entire house. 😂😂😂

The beast lol you did this today I just watched that video it was great when Jay did puns to the secret service

@watchJRgo, can you tell me what 4" led lights your using?. Tks

I guess you never had to mount old hitachi director series TVs. The 60” where ridiculously heavy for the size and where not fun hanging over fireplaces. I don’t miss those days. Did you get the focal speakers yet? I can get focal from one of my distributors

What I have found out after installing quite a few wall mounted TVs is that any good wall mount has some fine tuning on the leveling. The ones that don't make life harder. Love the progress on the crib. The indirect lighting is a nice touch.

If you need 4, pull 6. You'll thank me sometime in the future when you need another drop and those 2 spares are sitting there already. I overdid the drops in my new house like crazy, and it has already paid off in a few spots.

What type of swings are you going to install?

I LOVE my 3 head Kohler DTV shower I built a few years ago. it's a fairly basic digital valve. and only cost me $1k for the valve and control panel. The DTV+ is the super duper one that has the touch screen and bluetooth and other cool stuff.

I used to run a floorcovering warehouse, and one of our builders (owner of a home building business) built his personal home during my tenure. He had the most custom home that I've ever seen with around 9,000 sq ft, a "father-in-law" suite in the basement, a theater room with a sloping floor and tiered seating, 2 kitchens + a custom grill by the pool, a 20' fireplace in the living room, a $5,000 toilet in the master bath with the master shower having like 20 sprayers in the ceiling AND 2 shower heads on 2 different walls, completely wired for computer controls, camera system, and audio throughout, a "bridge" across the living room to get from the kids'/guest bedrooms to the master suite... I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of details. It looks like JR will have a "mini-mansion" at the least...

Have you ever checked out the coffered ceiling designs in Southern Texas homes.. especially the modern built upscale ones.. they make you headboard ceiling box look like a child's play.... They can get absolutely crazy.

Fast forward 2 years to JRs video “welcome to my new studio apartment!” House is looking great

I have a home treater is my house ( 65" 4k and 5.2.2 Atmos ) make sure the lights don't reflect off the tv when seated. I had to put a light stand off to the side for ambient light while the main lights were off. If you can, run wires for a 5.2.4 setup as you will regret not doing it later. If you can't run wires then you are stuck with a 5.2.2 setup and that is good but 2 Atmos height channels is even better. I have never bought a house where at at least 1 big room could be used as a home theater. Haven't been to movie theater since Forrest Gump played. 4K BR at home is so much better. I have 2 subs, 1 up front and 1 behind the couch.

when you mount anything heavy, mount the brackets against the bolts so they can't drop once weight is put on it.

Damn, JR! You look like Hoovie trying to lift that thing! 😂🤣

I would like to see a follow up video on that TV. I've been thinking about buying one for my shop. I always buy Samsung. So I'm kind of worried about buying cheap chinese junk over name brand.

You weren't kidding about how heavy that TV was seeing how you guys were handling it. I hope your lag bolts hold up I wouldn't want to be in the house when that TV hits the Floor at 2 am. lol

That ceiling box would be great for hanging a ceiling fan right above the bed.

I got a U7 85" late Jan. I'm *very* glad I paid for them to deliver it since it was 115 pounds packed and they had a hard time getting it up my building's stairwell. I very much doubt a 100" would have fit. Enjoy the size. the 85" is crazy for my apt size (I sit ~8.5' away) but it sure is nice. The U7 has excellent visual quality and the U8 is better. Nice buy, JR!

You might be able to install a speaker bar coming out of the ceiling above that doorway depending on the size/style of speakers you are looking to put in?

I’ve got the Hisense 125” and absolutely love it .. TVs can never be too big these days. .. I remember back in the day when a 27” tv was classed as a big screen lol

My living for 20 years was custom home integration. Enjoy watching your progress in the home. Keep up videos. Enjoy watching as get Ready for work. At times I may screaming Noooooo at things you do but end of day it all working out.

There is no such thing as a tv that is to big.... 😂😂😂 Now I want a 100in TV. My 75 looks small now. 😅😂

Years ago when house shopping my wife and I were shown a house owned by a single man. And it showed. It was like this, just not as modern.... all cool stuff for a dude. All stuff that we would have un-done. We passed. My friend did a bunch of custom stuff to his house when he was single. When he tried to sell it he had to undo a bunch of stuff.

Sometimes I think JR just started this channel so he could be busy filming content while his friends do all the hard labor😂

I feel your stress when you were hanging and about to let go of the tv. We went with an 86" tv last year when I finished my basement. Super nervous to let go of the tv. Thankfully I had a mount that swiveled and pulled away from the wall because I did not want to have to take it down again to install wires and cables. Lol 😅 Definitely an amazing tv though. People are really amazed at my tv, I can imagine yours tv next to mine.😅😅

So, how do you plan on servicing the LED strips if they need to be replaced?

what would be the max power usage roughly for that tv 24/7/365....cost to operate for a year...

Did you say you tried to find straight wood at a big box retailer? Hahaha... you of all people should have a real lumber yard as a go-to for consistent quality wood

Are you going to put those active seat shakers that are synchronized with the bass rumble?

I would have just put gorilla adhesive on that bar just to make sure it wouldn't move and overprotect the heck out of it; I mean, use super-duty bolts and reinforce everything and make sure the bolts were made of tungsten and titanium

Place is turning out nice! Great series.

I hope it lasts for you. My sister had a 50-inch Hisense tv. The LED broke after two years.

A mansion is typically in excess of 8,000sf, at least historically speaking, whereas a mini-mansion is usually over 4,000 sf of living space. Another factor is how much land is involved. Some people feel there should be more than an acre of land (43500 sf) around the house to qualify as a mansion. You can call it whatever you want, but usually the people who have really large houses just call it their house.

I sure hope there is spare bedroom for Gabe.

You need a big mirror on that bedroom ceiling Hefner style. Oh and a few bunnies.

I've got to say a lot for Hoovie. Before I watched Hoovie Kansas was just a place on the map I knew nothing about.and I'd never been to. Most of the people I watch on youtube now are from Kansas and Oklahoma. great bunch of people. I always start of with watchjrgo.

At my old workplace I ended up wall mounting 2 TVs - a 75" and an old 65" that weighed almost as much. 75" seems to me like the max for 2 people without it getting sketchy. I later looked into a mount for an 85" in a different office (same style as the one you got) and Samsung recommended 4 people for "just" an 85".

I just watched this and decided to upgrade to a 75 inch TV from my ten year old 48 inch Westinghouse. It comes Monday and I can't wait. I was gonna just do 55 inch but a 75 inch tv for $500 was too good to pass up

I thought this was a Cletus video from the audio at the beginning 😂

This is the kind of stuff I love, awesome! That truck made it look just right

keep them coming!!!

Watching you two hanging that big-ass TV was the best content I’ve seen this year.

Love my Hisense U8 75 inch, I switched to all Hisense tvs few years ago after numerous problems with LG, Samsung and Sony tvs great performance very bright and great 4 k picture, got a Hisense U6 75 inch in my shop às well

My living room is 18x24 and I have a 85 inch tv and it seems a little too big for me. I couldn’t imagine a 100.

So when the backyard pool coming? Plus the outdoor 200 inch projection TV. Sound system & kitchen

Give it another 6 months (once they've worked logistics with retailers out), and you'll be able to get TCL's 115 inch, lol. I've been torn between going the Hisense 100 inch TV for a theater room, or their 120 inch ambient light rejection screen and projector kit (or Laser TV as they call it) from Amazon.

Hisense? should have gone with LG for way better picture quality. but if all you're going for is the size, ok.

Good luck with your tv. I bought a 75” Hisense tv and it only lasted a year.

$750K? Not in that neighborhood. Before you started it was already the nicest house in any of the neighborhood shots I've seen. Best of luck though.

Had to fast forward through the tv part couldn’t watch too nervous

I have this exact same TV in my house that I got about 7 months ago. I decided not to mount it, and instead have it on a very large and stupidly expensive TV stand that is designed to handle the massive weight of this TV. Just putting the feet on and getting it on the TV stand was enough of a chore for two people. Hanging it...I wouldn't have even tried with two of us. I got mine from Amazon, so they used a freight service that brought it right into the house which made things a lot nicer (for the same money as Best Buy). The living room mine is in is a lot bigger (28' wide, where the TV is mounted, 22' deep that is also open to the kitchen, with a 20' ceiling), so it looks pretty normal. I had my 83" OLED there until this arrived and the 100" just looks better there. Plus the room has a wall of windows on one side and OLEDs just don't get as bright as this and it made a difference (but that OLED in the bedroom gets it DONE). Finished my setup off with an Arendal 1723 speaker setup (two towers, center, four surrounds) and a Monolith 13" sub. You will love this TV. Off center viewing could be better. It gets very bright, the color setup out of the box is pretty good. Blacks aren't OLED inky but still pretty damn good as it has pretty good local dimming. Has some dirty screen effect like pretty much every non-OLED but nothing out of the ordinary. There is a reason this gets better reviews than the TCL 100" that's about 1k more and the Sony that is 2x the price (I have the 75" version of that Sony...this has a better picture than the Sony). The remote on the Hisense feels low-end, but I'm running a Harmony Elite w/ Hub to control everything, so not a real factor. eARC when using the built-in app has been good, which isn't the case for many eARC setups, though I typically use my nVidia Shield Pro or Firestick 4K Max. I would absolutely buy this TV again.

@WatchJRGo, any chance we could get a revisit on the actual floorplan?

That's a lot of lumber for some LED Lights 😆

Seems like just yesterday I was taking square lighting out to put in round...

I think everything you have done to the house is amazing! I am a real tech guy and I can’t hold a candle to what you do! Keep up the awesome content.

Was your roof engineered to support the additional load of the extra 2x4s and sheetrock?

Love the network name of nunya. 😂😂😂

And the whole time, there was probably a sheetrock jack in the next room, lol

Hey JR. Great job so far, but please invest in at least a 4' level. Using that little torpedo level for everything is nuts.

What is the switching system you use to switch sources between TVs in all the rooms from one source I know you’re using the cat cables but what is the system you’re using? I know I probably didn’t say that right but I hope you know what I meant.

H. Heffner ?? well..... one can dream i guess🤣🤣🤣

The house is 4000 sqft?!!! Including the basement?

You know that NFM in KC has the TCL 115" Class QM8 4K UHD HDR QD-Mini LED with Google TV in Black - Smart TV is stock for $19,999. You need to return that Hisense junk and go to kc and get this.

The ledge/wall blocking the stairs from the kitchen should be a bar/breakfast bar with bar chairs

What’s the viewing distance for a 100” TV? Can you get far enough from it to not see pixels?

How's the picture quality? I've been really interested in mini LED. I love OLEDs as much as the next guy but I still worry about long term longevity and burn in with them. I think Mini LED might be the perfect balance between OLED performance and LCD reliability.

When the house is done, John should name it the playboy palace to piss people off.

It’s all about the sheer weight when you’re dealing with lag bolts for the TV. The smaller ones are more than enough for that. It would probably hold your car up.

I hope you have room for your center channel on the media stand below the TV.
