Why this tv rocks
- Pros: The video quality is absolutely amazing. Nice blacks, great 1080p with blu-ray, good responsive menus, lots of connections. Spent lots of time comparing this with the A650 and the new A750. Other than the 120Hz on the 650/750, the tv looks almost identical. Yes it is 30,000:1 vs 50,000:1 contrast ratio, 30,000 on the A550, but thats mostly marketing as you really cannot tell a difference. However, you must go to the store and see the difference between 120Hz and 60Hz to see which one fits your needs. It needs to be disabled on the 650/750 anyways for many games, and thats mostly what I do, so it wasn't worth it to me to get the 650 or 750 series. Overall great tv, awesome picture quality.
- Cons: Only one downside to this tv. The sound. You will see online reviews that the sound quality is ABSOLUTE garbage. It has bottom speakers, and they are horrible. You must hook up your own speaker system/receiver to get any type of sound quality, otherwise it's trash. I knew this when I bought the tv, because who doesn't have 5.1/7.1 :D But just beware that it sounds very muffled, and overall just sucks.
- Other Thoughts: Purchased from Circuit City, not newegg, but as always newegg rocks!
Couldn't Get Any Better!
- Pros: Between Newegg's sales and dilevery, and Samsung's quality, and techinical support this product has given me the best picture I've ever experienced on a home LCD TV.
Samsung's support is better than any I've ever encountered in years.
- Cons: There aren't any negative aspects of this product.

Great TV
- Pros: Great color sharp and clear. Lots of options. No dead pixels yet.
- Cons: None yet
Great tv for the price
- Pros: This TV is beautiful. Amazing colors once you adjust them properly. It's not 120hz like the newer models but it costs around $500 less. I almost wish I'd got the 120hz model but most of the time I don't even notice any ghosting so all-in-all it was worth it. Has tons of connections!
- Cons: Like most have said the speakers are worthless but I have mine hooked up to a stereo system anyway.
Samsung LN52A550
- Pros: Picture quality is amazing, I used TweakTV.com for my settings. The swivel base is a nice feature. Great number of inputs. SD TV looks good also.
- Cons: Sound, but that's easily fixed with surround sound
- Other Thoughts: Exceptional value on a top brand TV. You will not be disappointed with this purchase!
