I have the 43UD79-B. I just bought it a few weeks ago and I have it on a Gator "Quadpod" floor stand with an air piston for lift assist . My idea was to use it in an open space basement to watch movies (a mix of DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K Blu-ray), and also for homeschooling several kids (projecting a laptop screen for YouTube videos, Khan academy, presentations, etc.) I have not used it on a desktop. So far I can say that it looks great with videos, and it's pretty amusing to see a Chromebook screen blown up so large. I have not used it much yet in "lecture mode" but I have hopes that this will work pretty well. For audio, I am using the 1/8" out from the monitor going into an existing powered mixer. There are some other options like an optical out but I haven't tried those yet.
