I'm almost certainly going to buy it online. In any case, I can't saddle myself with something that would instantly become useless should it ever require a factory reset (until I can drive it to visit family and plug it into their aerial)

With any flat screen TV the sound is reedy at the best so you'll probably want to add a subwoofer as a minimum or run it through a Hi Fi. We have a vibe 100 watt unit.
We have audio issues on our existing TV so it has been sat on top of the hi fi for years. Any new one we buy will just plug straight in, so I'm not even bothering to check the audio quality of whatever we buy.
