from www.amazon.com
one thing i have noticed now that as i have gone from the reviewing phase of the tv to the watching phase, i find myself liking this tv more and more each day.
from www.amazon.com
one annoying thing is that there is a delay between the audio output to an receiver and the picture, meaning that the sound and picture are out-of-sync, although it is almost unnoticeable.

$340.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
the only thing i didn't like was it was flat black, not gloss.
from www.bestbuy.com
what's great about it:?light, setup was easy what's not so great:?sound is very thin "great tv for the bedroom, easily mounted on a wall with the proper mount.
from www.bestbuy.com
there is a general lack of bass, but the tv is slim, so i didn't expect it to be superb.
from www.bestbuy.com
i attached an analogue coaxial cable to the tv and ran the set up auto channel finder thing and the tv kept resetting whenever it got to channel 71 or 72.
from www.bestbuy.com
use it in a smaller room so sound level/quality isn't really an issue.

Panasonic TC-P54G10 Plasma TV

$2,044.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
only thing i kind of regret is i did not realize how cheap the kuros are becoming and perhaps would've stuck with the 50 to have one (1700$ online).
from www.amazon.com
one thing i would say, if you have to watch standard definition, you should be no less than 10 or so feet from the monitor.
from EisenPinguin, www.newegg.com
pros: really big(!!!), crisp picture, good selection and placement of inputs, thin form factor for a plasma, dark rich blacks.

the only thing i did find out of the ordinary was that the unit didn't come with a power cord.

the only thing kinda bad about it was the sound.

the picture is wonderful and the sound is great in the small room the tv is in.
from www.amazon.com
the bezel/frame is a bit shiner on the lg (sony is more matte and nicer in my opinion), but the picture is the thing and we went with the lg.

one more thing that impressed me and my daughter was how the tv cleaned up the standard analog cable channels, apparently due to the noise reduction feature, which we put on high.

the only thing i don't like about it is the speakers are in the back with no way to project forward.

the only thing i was a little unhappy about was the 3rd party shipping company dell used.
from lt.dell.com
i said, "this is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me." my daughter said, "what about when i was born?" there was a period of awkward silence that followed.

4 hdmi inputs, quality image, beautiful design, lightweight, thin, and all-around a fantastic set.

one great thing about samsung (and this was not the first time i was calling them) is their customer service - it's prompt and very helpful, and that i believe is extremely important when investing
from www.amazon.com
i have a ps3 connected via hdmi and the first thing i did was put in dark knight on blu-ray.
from www.amazon.com
the only thing i was worried about was the "glossy" nature of samsungs.
from www.amazon.com
it also makes it real hard to see the touch sensitive controls which might be a good thing if there are inquisitive little fingers in your house.

Sony KDL-52XBR9 TV

i almost went with the samsung led thin television 8000 series.
from www.amazon.com
also in the running was the super slim samsung b8000.
from www.amazon.com
i've seen the 55" xbr8 and the samsung 7000 and they are truly awesome, but are only 120hz and i can't fit any thing bigger than a 52" tv in the space i have.
from www.amazon.com
for me the most interesting thing is the ethernet connection.
from www.amazon.com
one thing it lacks, however, is led backlighting--unlike the sony xbr8 models from last year, the xbr9's have a standard cold-cathode fluorescent lamp (ccfl) backlight.

only thing i would recommend is purchasing a surround system with it.

the tv is nice and thin, side view and top-bottom view are great with no noticeable picture fading or distortion that lcds are known for.

watching high def movies with this thing is simply amazing and absolutely flawless.

from www.amazon.com
i purchased my 46xbr6 from amazon after doing an extensive review of hd product specifications and watching the real thing.
from www.amazon.com
the only good thing about it is that you know the tv is on when you click on the remote (the tv doesn't make any click "on" noise like our previous one did.)
from www.amazon.com
i called the shipping company and complained but never heard another thing.
from www.amazon.com
the only thing is that i have to prepare the screw driver to fix four screws on the lcd tv.
from www.amazon.com
the only other thing i would like is to see the tv with a glossy display to see if the color pops even more.

the only thing comparable to this tv are those 120hz lcds that cost three times as much as this set.

pros: best scaling circuitry on the market; this thing has the best algorithms for scaling non-native sources to 16:9 of anything i've seen.
