Impressive HDTV. Big bang for the buck!
By Quentin
I've had this HDTV for a week and am completely satisfied with it. The picture quality is top notch and the set is easy to operate. There are plenty of inputs for other components and I use many of them already. Over the air 1080i HDTV from the major networks and PBS is amazing, it's hard to believe broadcasts of this quality are free. Standard DVDs played in our upconverting Sony DVP-NS77H upconverting player are very good, of course not Blu-ray/1080p quality but way better than they looked on our old SDTV.The screen is bright and the colors are nearly perfect. My wife and I still can't believe how good this TV is. When you see rear projection sets in the store they don't look that impressive, especially next to a 58" plasma flat panel but once you get it home you won't be sorry. I can't imagine paying $4500 for a plasma this size when you get so much for under $1400.The geometric distortion problems of last year are greatly improved with the stronger and deeper cabinet. Not much wrong with this model at all. Of course take a look at the HLxxA750 LED models as well. They're a bit more expensive but the LED light engine will save you money down the road. I liked the PQ of the A650 slightly better and figured the cheaper price would offset the cost of a lamp replacement a few years from now.I bet you'll love this Samsung!

this is one of the best dlp sets ever. i have been hawking them for about 2 years now. being a gamer plasma was never an option for me and the lcd set cost too much for for a big screen. i was a little disappointed with the 120hz refresh rate beacause i thought it was going to be smooth like the lcd sets but it is not. but then after researching i realized that it does not need it. the picture is so bright and beautiful it is honestly the best picture i have ever seen. much better than even the sony xbr series in my opinion. i am more than satisfied. my wife even said this has been the best purchase we have made this year! blu rays look incredible so smooth and crisp. do your research and compare and you will come to see the best price and picture to match!

Wow, well worth the money!!
By J. D. Mitchell
I have been eyeing up a Sammy DLP set for quite some time. I initially planned on getting the Samsung HLT6187S for the 61 inch goodness and the LED light source. However, as I continued to procrastinate the price of those sets began to rise as they became harder and harder to find. At that point I thought I may as well jump up to the HL61A750 since it is the successor to my dream TV. Well, unfortunately my old lady voiced her opinion that the 61 inch was "too big" for our modest apartment, but said she backed up my decision either way. But me being the sensitive man I am I couldn't stand to make her unhappy and grudgingly started looking for a 56 incher.My searches would soon bring me face to face with the glorious glow of the Samsung HL56A650. Honestly, if they had a LED powered 56 incher in this series I would have gotten that one instead. I can imagine the reason for this was to lower the price to increase market saturation but I wish they could at least had both versions or a maybe an LED upgrade kit (does that even exist or did I just make that up?).I had a DLP projector a few years back and I've priced the lamps for the TV and they are MUCH cheaper than the ones for my old projector. Even so I was considering buying a replacement lamp and keeping it in the closet when the stock lamp eventually dies so 1) I can capitalize on the lower price while they are in abundance and 2) I won't be weeks without my pretty tv while I wait for the replacement to come in the mail.Alright enough babble, onto the actual TV itself, I order the TV the 16th, and received it on the 24th. CEVA only sent one person out with the TV so being the testosterone filled he-man that I am, I offered to help him bring it up to our 3rd floor apartment. After careful inspection of the unit and waiting for me to be satisfied, he took all the packaging to the garbage after I told him I didn't have space to store it in case of it being defective. The TV settings were so-so out of the box but after using the calibration disc we picked up previously Digital Video Essentials: HD Basics [Blu-ray] the picture was outstanding once we threw on a bluray disc.The television is very attractive even when its not turned on, with its stylish piano black finish and thin bezel. Any other 56 inch tv would overpower our living room but the design of the tv allows it to stay amazing low key. Then you turn the picture on and POW! Your eyeballs explode from resolution overload. The remote is pretty slick looking as well, with a piano black finish that matches the TV (and the PlayStation 3 80GB Motorstorm Pack).I actually thought I was going to be underwhelmed by the sound quality and want a home theater system immediately but I have been pleasantly surprized. Not that the speakers are that great, but they get the job enough that I can allow my wallet to recover the beating buying this behemoth has done before I invest in completing my home theater set up. One thing that kind of surprized me about this tv was that even though there are 3 hdmi hookups, there is only one antenna hook up which I forgot all about. I was actually anticipating hooking an antenna up to the second port to get some free high def channels.Other than those couple of gripes I really have nothing bad to say about the television. The main reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the lack of an LED light source or even an option for one in the 56 inch model. But don't let that be a deal breaker, this is a great tv that gives you more picture for buck than LCD or plasma.
