Earlier in the week we asked what your top AV purchase was if you ventured out to shop on Black Friday. Given a low turnout, we suspect many of you just stayed home like Jnemesh (who was happy to “avoid the chaos”) or focused your shopping efforts elsewhere like Prerich45 (who bought a new bed).

For those who did leave the comfort of their homes to brave the insanity, 4K/Ultra HD was the top purchase with 24 percent of the votes. Headphones were a distant second with 14 percent, followed by streaming media players and home theater speakers, each of which garnered 10 percent. Even OLED made a showing with 8 percent.

Here are the complete results:

4K/Ultra HD TV — 24%

Headphones/earphones — 14%

Streaming media player (Roku, etc.) — 10%

Home theater speakers — 10%

OLED TV — 8%
