Samsung HL56A650 56-Inch 1080p Slim DLP HDTV

It arrived safely, unpacked nicely and installed rather easily. Great picture and when connected to my present theatre set up sounds really great.
A good bargain for anyone.



4 out of 5 stars Very good TV   December 20, 2008

Great with DVDs. For regular TV we run everything thru TIVO, so I think we lose a little resolution. Overall this is a great set. It is less than half the weight of our old Mitsubishi 52" DLP (52525), and definitely has a better picture. It was delivered to our door and set up was a snap.


4 out of 5 stars Great display for the money!!   December 9, 2008

We've only had this set for a couple of months but so far we love it! After the initial setup it had a very good picture, but after purchasing & using a calibration dvd it has a great picture! I believe the quality of the picture is every bit as good as most of the more expensive LCDs & Plasma sets that we were looking at, for approx. half the price. It's only weak point (that I have noticed so far) is it's speaker system, not that it sounds bad but it could be a little stronger. This really is not much of a problem for us since we are used to listening to stock speaker systems. But we may purchase a seperate surround system for this set in the future. I think that would just about make this set perfect!
I highly recommend this set to anyone who wants a very nice display but doesn't want to spend a small fortune.



3 out of 5 stars good picture but questionable quality control   November 10, 2008

I purchased two of these in one day. The first one was basically DOA. Worked for about an hour, then lost picture (no, the timer was not on). Then it would not turn off, had to unplug it to turn it off. Plugged it back in and it was still in the on mode and started making a buzzing sound, I was ready for it to catch on fire. Took it right back and got another one, this one works ok other than the color wheel makes an annoying high pitched sound, like a dog whistle. Drives you nuts. Called Samsung and got a very unhelfpul person who sounded like she was 10 and was clueless and yawned on me while I was talking to her. Too bad this tv has issues because becasue the picture is stunning. The store is all out of them so I am either stuck with it or taking it back for a smaller LCD for more money. I wish Amazon sold this and not through one of their re-sellers, I only deal with amazon. 56 inches is perfect size for me and DLP is best bang for your buck. I would try an LED version but Samsung no longer makes the 56 inch in LED.

UPDATE- 11/18/08
Rec'd another set today hoping that the first set was just defective. Well this set also makes the same high pitched noise. It comes from the color wheel, not the fan. Maybe the people who do not hear this have a hearing problem or I just have good ears (my wife also hears it and finds it annoying). After about an hour it gives you a headache and when you turn the TV off it is such a sound of relief. It is a shame because the picture is beautiful but the annoying sound this TV makes makes it un-watchable. Guess I will have to settle for a smaller 52 inch LCD. Too bad bigger LCD's (55 in an up )are not more affordable.

Just got mine today...four days after ordering! Incredible picture, sleek styling looks great in my living room, and the current financing deal is almost too good to be true. If you're in the market for an HDTV, you can't beat this bang for the buck. Buy it...you won't be disappointed.
