A good product !
I waited a few months after purchasing this tv, before attempting a review.
MY experiences/opinions are (scale of 1-10, 10 being the best):
Handling, ability to move to desired location: 10 … light, easy for 1 person to move,maneuver, install on stand
Easiness to initially setup/get useful asap: 10 … You really do NOT need the directions, but they are excellent
Connections amount,availability, setup: 10 … I have cable, a PS3, and Xbox360, dvd … too easy if you ask
me !
Viewing: 9 … great from even extreme angles. Adjustments in the menu DO fine tune your individual needs.
: the 1080P shines in action movies, sports, and especially video games … resolution is phenomenal !
: I’ve experienced NO bleeding of colors or blurriness in high speed transitions
Audio: 7 … OK at best, but I bought it for its viewing capabilities, NOT expecting a ‘Bose’ audio capacity.
One of its menu items allows you to keep advertising volumes the same as network broadcast volumes…
Mine does NOT function that way… commercials still too loud
I have it (easily connected to) enhanced by my stereo system, so this is a wash as far as I am concerned
when wanting to listen to a Nascar race, music concert, or other venue.
Price: I did a LOT of homework, and found the price very acceptable in comparison to other tv’s boasting
similar if not identical capabilities… I bought mine on sale at Best Buy, but lucked into a good price
Green : Not much heat coming out of the uppermost exhaust vents
My end result: A great buy.
YES, a thumbs “UP” !
After owning a SONY HD tv, and experienced their lack of customer attention/satisfaction… a
lack of callback on their part force me to forever part with them as a trusted manufacturer.
In my opinion, their (SONY) trusted name is forever trashed/overpriced… if they will not
service what they sell… I want no part of them !
Update (2/8/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen. I also found some auctions for this item here.

I love this tv!
I’m watching baseball on the LN40B530 as I write this, and am blown away by the crisp picture and wonderful colors. The sound is fine as far as my family is concerned. I did make some adjustments to the equalizer, which improved how it sounded right out of the box. I walked past the “tv wall” at a local Best Buy, and to me this TV looked as good as the ones in the $2,000-and-up range. As far as its being “only” 60hz, it looked better than some of the 120hz ones. Maybe if you’re a heavy gamer that’s an important consideration, but nobody here is. Our previous TV was a Hitachi plasma EDTV that we thought was great, but this is a big improvement. Can’t wait to see a blue-ray disc on it. I wonder if the previous reviewer had a defective one. None of their complaints are true of this unit at all.

Great LCD!!
I This is my second LCD and the picture quality is amazing! With a 60,000:1 contrast ratio, colors just insert and make everything look realistic. Standard picture quality is good definition (ie, standard cable), but the HD quality is amazing. My last game was a Philips and the colors on the faces of people do not quite realistic, but look at the Samsung, everything seems realistic. The image parameters of the box are pretty good, but with a little adjustment (you can find the parameters of calibration line), the PQ is amazing. The only line I have with this TV is the sound that is more acceptable.
