They nerfed the CX hard...no 48gbs full bandwith nor is it able to decode DTS sound. I wondered how they dropped the msrp ao kuch

From what I've read (https://www.reddit.com/r/OLED/com...port_full/) this doesn't really matter.

Correct. C9 and CX are 10-bit panels and XSX/PS5 will look amazing on either set.

Both of these things are hardly what I would call nerfing. You'll never see 48gbps signals on your TV anyway and DTS decoding is done by any $20 streamer if it's of that big importance

They had open box 77C9s for $2249 and a $200 gift card. But who cares about facts?

Curious about the thumbs down here? Seems to be close to other deals as of late. Is it something specifically with Walts?

I was wondering about that too...ordered the TV Tuesday, got tracking Wednesday, and received it Friday no issues. No dead pixels, no cracks or anything. Been using it a lot since.

Appreciate the update. I originally ordered one from Greentoe, but it arrived damaged (sent via FedEx Express... that thing probably went through hell...) so I ended up with a refund. I've been on the fence about trying again. How did Walts ship it to you?

Ah that sucks man sorry about that. Walts used a company called "CEVA Logistics" and I signed up for a delivery window online using the tracking # provided. The earliest window was 5/21 but I tracked the order and it was already at my destination. One phone call later (on Friday) and they said they could deliver it Saturday morning. Arrived promptly 10am in a huge cargo hauling truck with some beer logos on it lol and 2 dudes put it in my garage.

Well, freight sounds a little more promising at least. I'll give Walts a shout tomorrow for more specifics and see if this deal is still available and go from there. Appreciate the help and the post!

Awesome no problem. I'd like to hear about your results if you contact them!
