The popularity of college and professional football also make this a popular time of year to shop for TVs. If your TV isn’t living up to the gameday hype and atmosphere, The Sound Room is the perfect teammate for you this football season.

In this article, we’ll explore some of the features that matter most when choosing the best TV for watching football and share our team’s specific product recommendations.

How to Choose the Best TV for Watching Football

If you’ve been shopping for TVs recently, we don’t have to tell you it’s a crowded market. TVs have always come in a variety of sizes, but today’s consumer has a plethora of other options to choose from including panel type, resolution, refresh rate, brightness, sound quality, and more. It can all be a little overwhelming. Thankfully, our experts have pulled together a short list of the most impactful options to pay attention to when choosing the best TV for watching your favorite football team.

Screen Size

Don’t overthink it. Bigger is better, but it really depends on your space. As you’ll see below, all of our recommendations are 77” or larger. But that may not work for everyone’s space. Generally speaking, avoid anything smaller than 55” when shopping for a great gameday TV.

Resolution

There is a broad spectrum of resolution options available for TVs today. Most modern TVs offer 4K Ultra HD resolutions, providing sharp images that make it easy to follow the football around the field. Many of the best TVs on the market for watching football today offer HDR (High Dynamic Range) support, like HDR10 and Dolby Vision. This resolution offers improved contrast and vibrant colors, making the game come to life in your living room. 

As the weather improves, many people begin considering upgrades to their outdoor living space. Whether you’re spending long evenings on the patio, hosting a barbecue, or simply enjoying music under the stars, outdoor speakers can enhance your outdoor experience.

When it comes to choosing the right outdoor speakers, one of the first questions is whether to go with wired speakers or wireless Bluetooth speakers. This blog addresses the primary differences between the two and helps determine which option might best suit your needs.

Wired Speakers: The Reliable Choice

Wired outdoor speakers connect directly to your audio source using cables. They provide a much more stable and reliable connection, as well as superior audio quality. Here are some of the top considerations for wired speakers:

1.       Stability and Reliability: Wired speakers offer a significantly more stable and reliable connection compared to their wireless Bluetooth counterparts. Since they are physically connected to the audio source, you won't encounter issues such as interference or signal loss.

2.       Sound Quality: Wired speakers often deliver clearer audio without the potential for wireless transmission limitations, including Bluetooth interference. You’ll experience crisp, clear audio quality in your entire outdoor space.

Outdoor entertainment is quickly becoming one of the most popular home upgrade considerations. It makes sense. When the weather is nice, there’s no better place to be than outdoors. But you shouldn’t have to choose between fresh air and watching your favorite team play or taking in a movie. For that reason, we see a growing number of people adding home video and audio technology to their patio or pool area.

But before you lay down money on a new television for your outdoor space, you should know that most standard TVs are manufactured for indoor applications. If you’re considering using an indoor TV for your outdoor space, this article explores five things you need to consider first.
