It's the 2012 GT50. I loved that TV. I'm thinking about just buying into LED. I'm just going to buy a new set. As much as I think it's overkill, I'll upgrade to 4k while I'm at it. Only thing is, is that I prefer active to passive 3D. All LED 4k sets seem to be passive.

Just wanted to update the situation. I'm pretty sure that the HDMI port is going out. No matter which hdmi input I use, it loses signal. The cord is pretty new. Only used it about twice since I bought it. Now my blus are starting to skip. I swear one small thing happens, then everything turns to shit. Not worth the price to fix it. Better start saving up $2,000.

f8500 is the best tv still available and the 51" is available for less then $1000.
