Well since I'm a system designer, I'm working with following up with my clients, letting them know I'm there for them in this rough time and that anything they're needing (AV related or not), I can help assist them with. It's tough for sure. I'm also playing a lot of MLB The Show haha.

Same processor, but the aesthetic is much better. It's also one that's meant to be mounted. It's also only 0.9" thick.

awesome thanks for the info i'm making notes as you say stuff so I don't have to ask the same question again.

So that's where the $1,000 are price difference comes in ?

Yep, exactly. If you're mounting it, I would definitely do the GX instead of the CX.

Wow, a 65" tv is huge lol

Takes up our whole dresser that's in our bedroom. Have a mount I want to put it on but need to drill it into the wall and haven't gotten there yet.

It would work, it's just that using a sound bar is just throwing money away. Here's what I would do.

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/svs-10-300w-powered-subwoofer-premium-black-ash/5707705.p?skuId=5707705

$1400+cables and you're set, plus you can always add on if you choose to do surround sound in the future.

I’m surprised Bestbuy sells SVS stuff. I have an SVS subwoofer and it rattles my entire upstairs of my home. Great stuff!

So Scott, C9 over CX at this point (price diff.)?

Will be buying in less than a month for a new theater/gaming area.

For me, there's not enough separation between the CX & C9. So I would go with the C9.

Appreciate your input. Thanks.

Re: LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

So one thing i have not seen people bring up is that like a lot of things right now because of the virus some sites are not doing reviews on newer tv's right now. CNET and rtings are both not able to do reviews.

Re: LCD or OLED? - The TV Thread

Question how long do you think it will be before you can get a 65 inch OLED tv for about $1000 and i mean one of the better ones not like a lower/mid quality one? Right now even a really good 55 inch one is at least 12 and for 65 more like 2000

You can get a LG B9 for $1899, in my opinion, gonna at least be a couple more years. Even a B8, which is out of stock, is still $1500.

Not enough improvements over the C9 IMO. Now the GX, totally different story. Love that TV.

Scott - curious as I'm starting to read up reviews and comps of OLEDs to buy one myself later this year (hopefully 77"!) .. but in your opinion, what about the GX, besides the mount, makes it worth the upgrade from the x9 series?

I also saw that the new LG OLEDs are G-sync certified. Is that as relevant if you're a console (current or next-gen) gamer? I think of that as more of a PC thing - but I'm far from an expert on the subject.

The GX also has ATSC 3.0, for Next Gen Video OTA. The LG OLEDs are definitely the way to go as far as gaming, whether G-Sync will be utilized on the new consoles has yet to be seen.

Yeah its all good that might be when i upgrade again. I have the KS8000 55 inch TV sense late 2016. Next time i get a tv i may want to go up to 65 inch and get OLED. I don't make enough money that i should be buying a tv all that often. Also OLED does worry me with the burn it. I have heard something about TCL being the first one with a mini led tv coming out later this year. Have we heard price and size with those? I am not sure like how mini led and micro led are different just have heard something about how they don't have the burn in problem that OLED has and i guess neither of them are out in stores to buy yet.
