This just in from LG! We're included in the first allocation of C2, G2 and Z2 OLED TVs. We have a lot more information on our website.

Here's some of the dates:

We'll announce the prices and start taking online orders for the 55", 65" & 77" C2 Series OLED TV on Monday, March 7th. For the 83C2 & 77G2 prices and online orders will be listed on Monday, March 14th. Followed by the the rest of the screen sizes and the 77" and 88 Z2 soon after. Shipping will be within one week of the above launch dates.

Sony gave us a lot of new technical specifications and the new launch dates that are also just updated on our website.

We just became factory direct dealers for all of Zappiti's Media Servers and Reavon's three Universal Blu-ray players.

I had not heard of Reavon. I'll be looking into their player to see how they compare with Oppo.

I believe Reavon stepped in when Oppo stepped out.

The reviews have seen said it was pretty close to the performance of the Oppo. The build quality was almost identical, but when you open it up it has less parts for some reason.

My understanding is that they designed the X100 and the very new X110 with the same chassis that they designed the flagship X200. They took advantage of the premium design and build quality, and the larger interior room to spread out the electronics to reduce heat and noise of interference between components.

Here's LG's 2023 C3 Series OLED TV .pdf spec sheet:


Two very nice launch promotions when buyers pair any screen size C3 OLED TV with LG's new S9C 3.1.3 Dolby Atmos Sound Bar w/wireless sub audio system.

First, is you get a $500 discount and you will also get an additional 5% credit on the C3 purchase, which is then applied to the small 1/2 price balance left after the $500 instant rebate. So if depending on which screen size G3 is purchased you may have a very small balance to add LG's new 2023 S9C 3.1.3 Channel audio system.

Here's LG's 2023 S9C 3.1.3 Channel Sound Bar Audio System webpage with the .pdf spec. sheet on the page.

Check out this important presentation on the new and correct recommended viewing distances from your TV! Also glad to see FOMO reference our great friend Phil Holland, who is one of Hollywood's top professional cinematographers.

Phil mostly films in native 8K HDR and is on our panel of expert judges at our annual TV Shootout Evaluation event.

The trend from all TV manufacturers is better processing, better panels and larger screen sizes, and the consumers are loving these new larger premium video displays and sitting closer than they did with the older TVs.
