Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
The sound is a little on the weak side compared to all the display strengths of this unit. But, that is what a sounds system is for. Glad I grabbed the 52" version.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
Excellent TV, love the picture. The sound is very subpar, so if you buy this TV plan to use a Home Audio System.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
I have removed the stand, but I am unable to remove the stem that held the TV to the stand. The TV is therefore mounted on the wall with this silly little stump at the bottom that cannot be removed per instructions.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
I upgraded from a Sony Wega, so this LCD is quite a step up. The picture is, of course, lightyears better than a CRT. Without a side-by-side comparison, I bet that most casual users cannot tell the difference between the models in Samsung's line. What anyone can appreciate, is a 52" screen. For the price of a leading edge LED, I can buy two trailing edge LCD's (a 52" and a 32"). The sound is lacking, but just search for optimal audio settings online. I have already recommended this TV to a friend who is enjoying his own LN52A550.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
The picture is just outstanding.....the built in speakers are cheesy, but I'm running it through a surround sound system, so it doesn't apply. highly recommended.

This is our first LCD Big Screen and we love it! The picture quality is great!
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
Great pictue, easy to set up and understand. Sound is not very good but I'm using a surround sound system with it so I won't be using the stock system very much.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
It's a high quality product with a low budget.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
I use the tv 6 hours a day and I love the clarity. I have a room with 20 windows and the matte finish is good for not reflecting images from the outside. I do wish the sound was better. I hooked the sound up to my Bose system so that helped a lot.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
THIS TV IS PERFECT FOR MY LIVING ROOM. IT IS BIG WITHOUT BEING TOO MUCH FOR THE ROOM.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
Nothing I don't like about the TV. I do have it hooked to a surround system so I can't comment on the TV speaker performance. Bright, contrasty colors out of the box and even better with some fine tuning.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
beautiful design, best bang for your buck

Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
I looked at TV's for over 2 years watching prices and plasma vs LCD and wanted at least a 50" if possible. I loved some of plasma's but I wanted to run computer media center, internet and teens love video games and I thought LCD was best for these. I fell in love with this this Samsung and the reviews were all high praises. But lowest price I was finding was 1365-1499 plus tax. When I saw Abe's price [...] it was a done deal. This LCD is wonderful. The colors, details and clarity and over all look including the stand is just amazing for the price. It is perfect for home theater and you can pop in a flash drive and even ran my phone through the usb and playing mp3's, pictures and slide shows using the in TV interface with nice graphics and sweet options for searches. This TV is set for the future of integration of multimedia of all types. I bought the Samsung Blu-Ray 1600 DVD player which when put together with this TV can both be turned on with one push of a button and automatically chooses set up needed between the two and the media type you are using. Set up was a breeze. HD Tv programing is great and even basic cable is much better than I expected. I now have the home theater I had been dreaming of and at a price that beats every other deal I looked at. [...]The TV speakers are bearable but not equal to the stunning picture unless your watching the news. But honestly who is going to seek out a 52 inch screen and not put a surround sound speaker system with a sub woofer to complete the set up. So no loss of a star from me for TV speakers I never planned to use. This is a GREAT TV and able to do much more than flip channels if you explore computer hook up and if you get the Samsung 1600 Blu-Ray it even will down load net flicks from the internet and Pandora music .... [...]...... I'm Totally SATISFIED. THANKS ABE'S I WILL BE BACK.

Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
The television picture was not clear at all for a high definition tv. I was very disappointed with the overall picture.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
everything about this lcd is great,except the sound and that is easy to fix by hooking it up to your amp.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
This is our main TV in Family room love the TV only thing wrong is the sound have to get more speakers then it will be fine great picture.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
We have it on the wall and absolutely love the HD channels that we watch. I can't imagine going back now. I am spoiled. Football and sports look absolutely amazing. I use my cable remote so can't say much about the TV remote. Also, I haven't looked into any of the features yet, probably because the settings seem great right out of the box (that and I'm lazy). [...] it was a great deal. You have to put it on the wall (no if's and's or but's). Get the help of someone you know (that has hopefully done it before) or else pay a couple hundred bucks to have it done. Also, get HDMI cables that are AT LEAST 8-10ft. 6ft will not give enough slack. You can get cheep HDMI cables online that work great. You WILL get ripped off if you purchase them at a store. Good luck.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
My only complaint would be the lack of a S-Video connection on the back of the set. There is one on the side but it leaves the cables exposed. Other than that the product is great so far. Great picture,easy setup and easy operation.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
We just finished our basement and this 52" LCD was the perfect fit for the entertainment area. The screen is able to be viewed from sides just as well as from straight ahead.
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:
Used in family room. Great picture quality. User friendly controls. Sound better when using surround or separate stereo speakers. Fantastic value!
Comments about SAMSUNG LN52A550 52" 1080p LCD HDTV:

Got the LN52A550 for about a month now. Everything is OK. Picture is good and impressive but the PIP can not select the Digital channels. This is very poor design feature. Very disappointed at the PIP feature.
