Replacing a TV that arrived in the wrong model

The retailer had mistakenly delivered a 75-inch Samsung 4K TV instead of the 75-inch Samsung 8K model the customer had ordered. The first TV had already been installed above the fireplace, so this Ben Lomond project involved taking it down and installing the correct model in its place.

Sonos and Xfinity connections

As part of the replacement setup, we connected the Sonos soundbar and Xfinity box to the Samsung One Connect Box. The soundbar sits on the mantel beneath the television.

External cables by request

The customer chose to leave the cables outside the wall. We recommended replacing the visible black HDMI and power cables with suitable white cables to blend more closely with the wall. That was a recommendation for a later change; replacing those cables was not part of this installation.

Planning a similar TV replacement

Include the old and new TV model numbers, photos of the existing setup, and a list of the soundbar, cable box and other equipment in your quote request. Let us know whether you want to keep the current cable arrangement or discuss a different finish.
