Q1
How big is your room?
It sets the TV size we aim for, and how much subwoofer and receiver headroom we look for.
Q2
What’s playing most nights?
It decides which specs we weight while scoring the catalog.
Q3
TV or projector?
It decides the display half of the draft.
Q4
What’s your budget?
It sets a price ceiling per component — we take the most capable part under it that publishes the specs our checks read, and go over the ceiling only if nothing under it does.
