I bought the new Samsung Luxia 6000 40in. LCD LED display and I’m a little concerned with the level of artifacts on non HD broadcasts. Anyone have any similar experience or suggestions? Good HD broadcasts are stunning, so I think it may be the signal. Still, I would like lower grade signals to be a little cleaner.
Also, does anyone have any experience with Samsung upgrading their software? I noticed they have an option to do so in the menu, just wondering if they ever do it?

I currently own a samsung 40″ lcd…and i love the Tv. But as i read your reviews,i also seem to agree that on most samsungs,the sound just doesnt “cut it” so to speak. I quickly purchased a Samsung Sound bar,which is fantastic. Ive been looking at the new led that samsung is now promoting,but again ive heard issues with the tinny sound. Hopefully samsung can work out this minor problem,cause they do make a great looking tv.

Hooo!! I just purchase thie Samsung LED TV today. It is a dream come true for me. I have been looking for over a month for a new TV. I was read and read, Ask and ask the sale person for every knowlage I can before I buy this one. Wow what a good decision. I had a Magnavox 32″ 720p that quit working after 3 years. Think it because I start to play Blue ray with HDMI in to it. I set auto out put from the blue ray but I think I force 1080p in to my 720p. Called Magnavox they know exectly what happen (like it happen often) my power board was burn out. So any one that have 720p becareful. I know that Samsung is a very good brand, but I don’t know how good it is until i seen this one un40b6000. The price was out of my range, and I was setting down with 60hz Samsung 550 model for around $1,000. I purchase the 6000 for little over $1300. I worth the money. I though my Magnavox was good picture, but not even compare to this samsung. 40″ is way big enough for me, and i think it is the right size for any room unless you are in a hall or sport bar or very big room. I love the auto sound setting it help a lot. My wife and I was always got mad at the net work station that crank up the sound of comecial too lound, and we have to keep adjust volume up and down on our old TV. After we seted the auto sound we now are relaxing not jump up and down like before(more peace full feeling if you know what we mean). I notice that on the sit com the sound of back ground laughing is also smooded not jump up to disturb you nerves. WE LOVE IT!!. You can turn it off when you watch the movie to get special sound effects. the finish is beautiful the base ia a real class not plastic, looks very classy. I play Wall-E, Die hard, Across the Universe, Battle of great Brithan.Hoo we never seen any think like these Blue ray. Thank you Samsung for build the best TV for us cosumers. This is truly a Cadilac of TV.
I can’t wait to watch Tennis US opon on it.
Pro: Great picture, color, sport pictures is like you are standing beside the player. Blue ray is so sharp it’s unreal, great sound from little speakers. I don’t have cable or disk, and don’t have to deal with these pay TV provider the try to BS us about buying HD TV signal from them. The true is you can get HD off the air from every digital brodcast, which they all are. My on the air picture is so charp, and it free. I am getting over 60 chanals over the air, and it growing. If I want to watch the late release movie I just rent them from Redbox.com for $1.00 a night.
Con: The screen have refexion like Plsma a litlle, The cable hook ups should be on the bottom, only one RCA input(I gusses samsung want you to use HDMI for all conection,

i went thru 4 sets from bestbuy and all had a terrable buzzing noise coming from the back of the tv. it also has a very poor viewing angle. move left or right the picture washes out. also the led lights made it hard to get natural skin tones on the screen every persons face was to bright no matter what setting the tv was on or how i ajjusted the setting. my samsung 40a650 does not have any of these issues. i took the fourth set back and got the samsung ln46b750 , this set beats the led in every aspect. the blacks are better the white is not overly done and skin tones look natural. c.net also rated the 750b series better then the samsung edge lite led tv’s.

This is one of the best LCDs on the market right now. The picture quality is excellent, the black levels (once tuned properly) are top notch for a LCD TV. The viewing angle is also very good. The set itself is very sleek, I love the black border and the touch of color. Connectivity is excellent, the remote is very confortable (although a bit chunky for my taste). The menu system is quite straightforward.
There are a few things that are not perfect though:
-there are no buttons on the set itself (at least I didn’t find any), so you have to use the remote to turn it on/off.
-the HDMI ports are on the side, making for a bit of a cable mess if you have heavily shielded cables. Having them toward the bottom would have been better.
-the Motion Plus technology is a mixed blessing. On documentaries, it gives a stunning, life-like aspect to the picture. On some types of movies (animation for example) or for games, it’s not so great though, and it’s better to turn it off.
-coming to the contrast level: I also have a Pioneer Kuro plasma screen (50″), which has one of the best contrast and image quality. Although this TV has an amazing picture quality, and will easily outperform a lot of other LCD screens, it’s still not up to the level of contrast from the Kuro…
Overall, I’m very satisfied. You can find cheaper LCD screens of course, but the image quality justifies its price.
