Wide Color Enhancer/Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp

The NTSC (National Television Systems Committee) has established the color standards all TVs in America try to meet. And typical LCD TVs only meet about 72% of this standard. Samsung LCD HDTVs use Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp back lights to give you 92% coverage of the NTSC standard, ensuring truer, more breathlessly vivid colors.

Samsung’s exclusive Wide Color Enhancer technology delivers more brilliant colors, even in bright areas of the picture where blues and greens are washed out on conventional screens. The system displays wider color reproduction, showing you truer colors – the fresh green of spring foliage, the intense blue of the summer sky.

Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?

HDTV Size chart
With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience.
If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.
  • Minimum size = Viewing distance/3
  • Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great HDTV ...
The LN-32A550 SAMSUNG is fantastic. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't tell the difference between a 720p and a 1080p in this size TV because you can.

The HDTV programs are great. Digital programs are very good and SD programs are above average depending on the channel (can't wait for February).

Blacks are deep, whites are bright and flesh tones are natural.

There are more setting in the menue for picture and sound than any other HDTV I looked at.

3 HDMI ports and all the other ports you could want in a TV this size including a USB port for showing pictures and firmware updates.

The sound is only average but I have it in my bedroom. If you are going to put it in a family room or living room you might consider adding speakers.

Swival stand and backlit remote are great features.

The simple piano black finish and lack of chrome make this TV look sleek and modern.





Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - * A Brief Review ...
This is a nice tv..... so far as i can tell there is only one thing that's been bothering me about it. I am using this television as a PC monitor and television. If you want to use it as the PC monitory you have to be sure that the samsung 550 is ON FIRST AND THE HDMI/DVI SOURCE IS SELECTED (in the menue) BEFORE......BEFORE...you can turn on the computer .... otherwise, the tv won't recognize the computer and you have to hit the reset button on the pc and start over. It's kind of a drag. Now you may be saying that maybe it's my PC.... and maybe you'd be correct. I won't know untill i kick 800 bucks for a new pc system which is going to be a while. Ok..... so i run the sound out from the sound card and into the back of the tv using a 3mm cable...(i think it's 3mm, but whatever), and then run RCA cables from the "audio OUT LR" on the tv and into the back of my home stereo. So i get pretty good audio from my PC comming out my home theater. Surprising, there is no noticable hiss! I kicked out a very very cheap 40 bucks for twenty feet (or so) of think hdmi/dvi cable.....on amazon, the cable is HALF what a regular retail shop would charge!! I also got a six footer for a mesialy 10 bucks or so!! To rap it up.... i got the pc / tv / home stereo integrated pretty well. My next home stereo will have optical inputs so later i'll be able to run those out the tv instead of the RCA cables. Here's an afterthought....this puppy runs hot! In the winter it's going to double as my heating. Who knows, perhaps my gas bill will be lower this winter. for now, I just turn up the energy saver function to high. It's a cool option. I learned how to use the menue in a very short time, it's very simple to use. The remote light up when you push the "light" button.... that's kind of cool too....ok bla bla bla ...i'm rambling.......DRUM ROLE PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I GIVE THIS PRODUCT A.....................................................................................................8.5 !!!



ps the resolution on this pup is bitchen !!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great Samsung LN32A550 Tv ...
This is a great tv Amazon delivery service and setup was excellent....Tv picture sharp and works well showing my Blu Ray and HD DVD movies....It is also great using it with my Sony PS3 system. Thanks Again Amazon you have made me a happy customer....



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * Much better the A450, Nearly as good if not as good as the A650 ...
We looked at Alot of TV's in Stores and it came down to a choice between the Samsung A550, A650 and the Sony XBR.
At the End of the day the A550 looked as good as the Sony or the newer A650 and the price was the best of all 3. It was the only one to be had at slightly under 1k Bucks.
I tend to always buy the best if you can see or feel a difference between products regardless of price. I dont shop by Price only.
I feel that when you buy the best you are always happy and you dont always say too yourself that i wish i had spent the extra hundred or whatever for the other one.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * very good product ...
I read other reviews about this product before I purchased this TV. People complained about the speakers they work very well I found the speakers excelent for the average room. The picture was excelent weather watching HD or plain digital broadcasts. This is the best value I found for making the step to HD. I would recomend this TV to everyone. EXCELENT PRODUCT.....

Jazz is characterized by democratic group improvisation, so it's natural that artists like the Brooklyn-born pianist//keyboardist/composer Kenny Werner offer insightful and inventive critiques on American democratic society. On his Blue Note debut, Werner's impressive "cabinet" includes trumpeter/cornetist Dave Douglas, drummer Brian Blade, bassist Scott Colley, and saxophonist/clarinetist Chris Potter. With Tower of Power's Lenny Picket in the production chair, Werner's take on the unreality of American life is manifested in techno-savvy computer grooves, acoustic swing, strong contrapuntal exchanges, and genre-bending idioms. "Lo's Garden," "Inaugural Balls," "New Amsterdam," and "Lawn Chairs (and Other Foreign Policy)" are syncopated soapboxes ringing with Kraftwerk/James Brown/Herbie Hancock Headhunter-type rhythms and angular melodies, contrasted by the mournful aura of "The 13th Day," written for his late daughter, and "Kothbiro," from the film The Constant Gardener. Werner's bop, beats, and bytes will live on long after the polls close. --Eugene Holley, Jr.

Originally recorded in 1989, Phish's second record is a brilliant blend of whimsy and wisdom that served notice to the world: these boys are tough to peg. "The Squirming Coil" is arena-rock bluster, "Reba" is winding art rock, "My Sweet One" is quick bluegrass, "Split Open and Melt" is a funky workout, "Oh Kee Pa Ceremony" is jazzed-up country boogie, "Lawn Boy" is lounge jazz, and "Bouncing Around the Room" is irresistible pop. Add to that "Run Like an Antelope," one of their most successful twisting-and-turning instrumental jams, and you have an eclectic yet digestible smorgasbord of styles. What saves Phish from crumbling under their own weight? A palpable sense of playfulness and sarcasm and musicianship that is both loose and demanding. --Marc Greilsamer
