Loving the Samsung Plasma. by Randy H. on vanns.com Dec 14, 2011
After researching for several months seeking a replacement for my 12 year old Sony 36 Flat Screen tube television I decided that a 60-65 screen would be the perfect size. So I looked into the LCD, LEDLCD, LaserVue, DLP & Plasma sets in this size range ...
 
I took a chance on Samsung and I'm glad. by Travis the Videophile on bhphotovideo.com Jul 12, 2011
I have always heard Samsung quality is questionable but so far I am impressed. The picture is terrific especially considering it is priced much lower than a comparable Panasonic. I use external speakers and a receiver so I can't speak to the quality of ...
 
Samsung PN64D8000 by Austin Z on crutchfield.com Jun 18, 2011

Overpowering buzzing noise by Devil's Advocate on amazon.com Nov 18, 2011
This is not the usual electrical hum or the sound of cooling fans. The buzzing noise happens when the panel itself turns on but not nessicarily when the tv is powered on so it isn't a control board issue. Additionally I use a power conditioner so it is ...
