Well, if it were a plasma, I'd say that maybe the gas is leaking out of the cells, but that couldn't be the case with LCD...

LOL

The best way to solve that is not to put your head real close to the back of it!!! If you can't hear it from your seat, who cares. Plasma's energy use generates heat, and gets fans going. that is the likely cause of the noise.

Sound like something to do with powersupply that possible makes noises. I have the same with my Panasonic pj.

Possible answer for you?:

Google some and there are plenty with similar issues.
Call samsung and sort it out if this is something to worry about or not. Also standing in front of your tv may help :P

commandercool · 11-09-2008, 11:20 PM

nahh it's not audible from my seat or anywhere in the room unless i put my ear next to it,i guess it's not a big deal but i'd rather be safe than sorry ya know
