Great Picture June 24, 2010
Snowdwarf (Austin, Tx USA)
I am a huge Samsung fan, this is my 3rd one in my house. The price is always competitive, but the quality seems to exceed the other brands I've had. This is an awesome TV. We have it in our living room about 15 feet away, still feels like a movie screen. It's a bit of a shock to get it out of the box and my neighbor had to help me lift it up on a tv stand.
The picture is fantastic, full 1080P and the 600hz refresh (60 hz actual, then dynamically accelerated) is great. No motion blur on sports, nice deep blacks when watching movies. I do not have a received, but with this TV it's not really necessary. 4 HDMI inputs are enough for all my gadgets, and it has digital sound output so I could use it with my stereo easily.
This was the easiest purchase I've made on amazon. TV does not have a very loud buzzing to me. I do hear a hum when it's not engaged on an input, but watching tv at normal level volume is fine, no buzz sound. I think if you place the magnet cores supplied on the cables, this does help. I'm going to get a Monster power conditioner for all my components anyhow, this should help alleviate the noise on the electrical lines.
Happy viewing, this TV is amazing for games, blu-ray, and regular HD TV viewing.
Plasma Rule's May 14, 2010
RLW (Sandy, UT)
Ok everyone needs to understand there is no perfect HD technology, but this one comes close. I have owned all of the different technologies and for picture clarity and refresh rate, Samsung's plasma rules. Yes there is a slight "plasma hum" but if you understand the physics' of plasma you know it is unavoidable without a huge chassis and with any volume above ambient home noise it is negligible. Yes plasma will always use more power than LED, LCD, or projectors, however for pure visual enjoyment these things are unbeatable. Shipping from 6ave was reliable and the contracted shipper was great in our case. Very happy after just a week of ownership!

Samsung Flat Screen April 12, 2010

Best set I have ever owned. The 1920 X 1080 resolution feels like I can put my hand right into the screen, and the swivel make viewing from another room extremely convenient. I highly recommend the product.
