Default My new Samsung

So I picked up my new Samsung LN40B640 120hz TV about 16 hours ago and have not moved an inch … I decided to dedicate my empty second bedroom into a theater room and move all my Audio equipment with the new TV, Seating is about 5 feet away. This tv is simply addicting! Samsung never ceases to amaze me! Pics will be posted soon!

Yea, the set-up in my profile with the 530 and the TV stand is staying in the living room, I am just moving the audio and got a new stand for the 640 and all of that is going in the second bed room....now all I need is some good seating and decor.

Congrats langn08....I have a Sammy 650, and I have to say that I have liked the picture a lot since I have had mine, and have been especially impressed by the dark levels of this LCD. Enjoy!

Can't say I use the Info Link. I usually rely on the internet for this kind of info much more...but that is just me.

I don't own a Samsung LCD, but I own 2 Samsung plasmas and they're amazing panels. Blu Rays and video games offer the best pictures. Buying a Sammy is definitely a good investment.

Still in perfect working order, The only complaint I have is that you can only have three pages of favorites... other than that it really works well and is a conversation starter!

And I would do refurbed again anyday for one of these!

I got the same exact model of Samsung. The picture quality is stunning. I really enjoy watching TV now.. and even more so BD. I have no complaints about the TV at all. Whenever I turn on the BD player it also turns on the Samsung and switches to the correct input. Any my BD player isn't even a Samsung.. it's a Panasonic. very cool.
