Are we close to a price drop on 2017 OLED TVs? Anyone have one of those LG B6s or G6s? Or should I just get a used Pioneer Kuro 500M and wait for OLED to iron out all of their issues?

I'm getting sick of convergence, peeling anti-glare coating, and overscan issues on my Trinitron 34XBR960. It's great for film, especially analog sources, but it's becoming increasingly awful for anything with menus or straight lines even after my own (probably shitty) calibrations.

Correction: 2016 OLEDs

Shit's are >$2000 right now and Kuros range from $400-1500.

>Plasma masterrace

but anon my 4k $10,000 led bullshit has such a good contrast ratio when the screen is black it looks like the tv is turned off hurrr

>my samsung plasma has been doing that since 2007, when it was built

>led bullshit

That was my justification for years and why I've been satisfied with my CRT for so long. LED is not the same as OLED though. "LED" was just LCD with backlighting, and LCDs were invariably disappointing. OLED is a different beast. Check them out in a controlled setting with proper calibration if you can. The image quality is pretty damn comparable to Kuros. Maybe better, but I haven't seen them side by side.

What Samsung plasma do you have?

I don't remember the exact number, its a 42 inch model built in 2007. I got it for free last year because it was "unfixable". Actually all it needed was 1 power supply capacitor and a few solder joints refreshed after 9 years and it works like new again

Kuro is your best bet, otherwise one of the great Panasonic's or Samsung's
Or a LCD and bias lightning, but most LCDs have some form of dynamic contrast/ABL and even frame rate interpolation that can't be turned off
OLED is, unfortunately, still a pipe dream

Yeah, I replaced a pair of ICs in a 4:3 40" Trinitron that I got for $20. My parents are still using that thing four years later, kinda whether they like it or not cause they can't get rid of a 300 pound TV. I expect those same chips to shit out in my 960 soon, but it's easy as fuck to repair these CRTs.

Why's that? I've only heard about potential longevity issues.
>>
>>59980811

Prolly a PS42R7 or R8, PS42S7 or S8, or PS42Q7 or Q8 ( with an X_ _ country code at the end of model )

Directly related to the longevity issue, limited brightness.
