Testimonial:
Went through the old “plasma vs LCD” game for a couple of months. Could of fit a 46in LCD in my entertainment center. Looked hard at the LCD’s and just decided for me, sports and movies, the plasma gave a better image. A little more film like and not as edgy as the LCD’s. LCD’s look great upon first viewing, but watch some sports and people’s faces. For my usage, plasma works better right now.
Bought this TV when the price dropped. Love the gloss black frame. Picture, after 100hr break in and adjustment, is stunning on HD and acceptable on SD. SD will always look a little soft, nature of the source.
Have read many accounts on the web of this set “buzzing”. Set my TV up in the dining room for a few days just in case I got a “bee hive” in a box. Set was super quiet. VERY SMALL buzzing from the top left I could only hear if my ear was 6in away. At 2ft + it was quiet. Yea ! Then went through reconfiguring my entertainment center, new HD cable box, new AV recv’r, new DVD upconvert player, new speakers, just a few wires to re-route.
Got everything connected, cleaned off fingerprints, sat back and turned it on. BUUUZZZZZZZ.
Dang ! (or words to that effect) Sound was not tolerable until the volume was turned up past 15. Now it’s 1am.
Looking on line for what I might return the set and get, dreading the back and forth of service calls on a new set, kicking myself for not heading the “buzz” warnings I had seen online. After about 30 minutes of self flogging, I realized “hey the set was quiet in the dining room. what changed?” Started doing the old cable check, surge protector check, even tried another outlet on the same wall. Nada. Then I got a thought, grabbed one of my Transparent Audio Power Cables. It’s one of those semi-hi-end filtered AC cords. Plugged it in to the Samsung, turned the TV back on, and whisper quiet was returned. Picture even looked clearer, might just be me though.
Guess the end result is, I’m extremely pleased with the picture quality, set looks great even when off, new antiglare screen dramitcally reduces room glare. It’s in a 16×24 room and looks awesome. However you MUST have a clean AC plug or some type of quality power filter/conditioner, not your regular surge protector, to get the most from this set. For some reason this set, or maybe plasmas in general, are more sensative to line issues.
Good luck on your choice. I’m happy with this one. Now if I could only fit that 63in plasma……..
