Date: 2008-10-13 Amazing This is an amazing TV. I have been looking for 2 years and kept waiting for the right price and product to pull the trigger. About a year ago I began to notice the Samsungs and how they generally were superior to similarly priced brands. At first I was interested in a 37 inch TV so it could fit in my old TV armoire. But there was no 37 inch in the series 7 and the 40 inch was about an inch too wide. finally I took my wife to a big box store and showed her what the touch of red looked like. my wife said OK, we moved the armoire, and bought the 52 incher. Our whole family is ecstatic with the purchase. Even with regular cable the picture is amazing. But when we watch movies on Blu Ray it is like looking out a window the picture is so sharp. For some reason CEVA did not hook the TV up and test it as described on the website. So I had to spend some time with the manuals. I have a yamaha surround sound system, an old sylvania VCR/DVD combo and a Samsung 1500 Blu Ray player hooked up. I also have an old dell lap top hooked to the VGA port and a mac book going into the hdmi 2, All of my sources are working and I have even played around with PIP so that could watch the ball game while my son was watching a movie. This was a great purchase and anyone looking for a high end experience at an affordable price should consider the Samsung LN52A750. And now my wife gets to buy a new piece of furniture, a TV stand, to hold the new TV. Date: 2008-10-13 Perfect for bright room and connection with computer Our Samsung LN52A750 is located in a bright, two story living room. We view it from a range of 12 feet to 20 feet. The system includes an Onkyo TX-SR705 7.1 Channel Home Theater Receiver (Black)and a Samsung BD-P1500 1080p Blu-ray Player. I also have the TV linked to a computer via ethernet cable and have used a DVI-HDMI cable to use the TV as a computer monitor. We use a Logitech Harmony One Advanced Universal Remote to control everything. Using translucent shades we have no trouble viewing the TV on sunny days. The contrast is astounding. We are waiting for installation of an Directv HD Satellite receiver; viewed from 12 feet, however, the standard picture is remarkable. The picture using Blue Ray disks or even DVDs is fabulous. The computer connection works as advertised (DLNA function). We can use to the TV to chose folders of pictures on our computer for viewing as a slide show. We also use the internet connection through our router to display weather and news on semi-transparent windows via the "InfoLink" feature. I would definitely recommend the TV (and the entire system). Date: 2008-10-13 Love it! Have had the TV installed for a couple of weeks now and love it. Renders HD wonderfully, deep rich blacks and vibrant colors. Also renders standard def quite well too, a big plus in my book. Standard def programs and DVD's will be around for a number of years, even when the switch to digital happens many stations will still be in 480i. My only beef with the TV is the software used to connect to a PC (and thus picture and music files). The software isn't very user friendly and limited to specific types of file names. As well, there isn't a setting to shuffle play pictures and have background music at the same time. A small drawback but one none the less. Overall I rate this TV quite high for what it can do, not for what it can't. Date: 2008-10-12 Hard to Stop Watching this Incredible SAMSUNG TV long enough to write a review....... Talk about being spoiled! Watching this TV is not only good - its "INCREDIBLE beyond description". I connected a Playstation 3 for blue ray movies, and a High Def Direct TV satellite box - and it is simply breathtaking to watch movies / TV shows. Although the TV is loaded with features - I honestly am only interested in the picture quality - and I can assure you that there is no better TV out there! I was told that to experience the picture quality comparison with other TV's - go to your local favorite electronics store - walk in the TV section and look for the brightest TV, and it will always by a Samsung! I tried it before I bought this unit and it was absolutely true. Bragging on the Amazon purchase advantage/experience, my TV was purchased at a price substantially lower than my local electronics stores, no tax, no shipping charges, it was shipped within 1 week, carried into my house and turned on to verify no problems! My experience buying a major electronic purchase was FLAWLESS, and was the icing on the cake of a PERFECT television set. (FYI - I wrote this review approximately 3 weeks after using the television), Sorry - HAVE to go - a have Ironman "Blue Ray" waiting........ Date: 2008-10-10 It's GAMEDAY now This was a 15yr ann. gift. old school was crystal.....now it's liquid crystal!! This is the must have LCD HDTV. I went through the whole walk and talk at Best Buy. Sifted through each brand....and this is it! everything that is promised was delivered. You cannot beat the clarity of this picture. There are settings to enhance the picture depending on what you are watching. The remote is cake, you will not need a degree from M.I.T. to set this up. The best part was saving $837 by ordering with Amazon. Perfect delivery and ON TIME. By the way I am 41 yrs old and in the best shape of my life...lol I am Out! Lance-man
