This unit is first-class. Vivid colors, white whites, black blacks. The HD is superb. Watched the TV at Best Buy, then ordered from Amazon and saved $300. TV arrived as scheduled, no damage, no problems. Just purchased the Samsung cheapie THX-50 surround sound. While not a $2k unit, it works great for $250 in our bedroom. You will not be disappointed with the TV or surround sound units.
