A major move is coming tomorrow. I've taken the plunge on a Sony A9G 65" OLED, and it's scheduled to be delivered and set up tomorrow. Today, I plan to work on getting the apartment ready for its arrival. Since the A9G is the same width as my Kuro with its speakers attached, it fits the space, so no worries there.

Four factors made this happen: 1) Sony lowered the price; 2) Bank of America offered me a deal allowing me to do a balance transfer and pay over time with no interest; 3) I won't be traveling for Christmas, so that's money I won't spend; 4) the store I'm buying from has a program which donates TVs to families in their area who can't afford to buy one. If I had room I'd have kept the Kuro, but this way someone will be getting a very good TV.

I've also got a Magnum Dynalab ST-2 in house, haven't set it up yet. I'd think it will be an improvement since it's omnidirectional. We'll see.
