I have made the decision to purchase the ln40a750, the only difference is the 750 has a subwoofer bass speaker in it. Worth it to me because I had no plans in hooking it up to stereo system.

Can you give a quick review of the 750? Your correct about the subwoofer, which is definitely a plus for this model. By the way, have you read about the halo effect of this model...have you experienced it?Thank you!

The 750 is DLNA compliant, another up and coming industry initiative for interconnectability between many different products and vendors, may be worth the extra money for future proofing the purchase.

I bought one, it has a real nice picture but I'm a little disappointed with the DLNA function. It works but doesn't do much with respect to networking other that displaying pics from USB device. It does display weather info from the internet but the server application shipped with it doesn't work, so no connnectivity with a PC for rendering photos. I would't spend the extra money for IP connectivity because there isn't enough functionality to warrent the extra expense.

Allan, Thanks for the input. Could you clarify which TV you bought?Did you try utilizing the DLNA to connect to a PC and play movies off the PC?What are your views on the quality of the TV's picture/sound/color...etc?
1249226
Anyone have an update on this? Reasons for buying one or the other?Has someone tried or seen both?Thanks In Advance

I looked at both the 6 series and 7 series at my local Fry's store. The salesman pointed out that the "frame" around the screen is glued on in the 6 series. The frame actually started to separate from the screen after the floor model had been on for for many hours. While the 7 series is actually screwed on the set to prevent this from happening.

I was wondering the same thing. The LN40B550, at $935, has a reasonable discount. I noticed that it took longer for Amazon to start shipping the B530, and BestBuy and Sears appear to often run out of that model, so maybe there is a shortage right now. (Perhaps Samsung is busy pumping out B550s instead?)

Michael: Thanks for the excellent comparison. Until I read your comments, I had about decided to go with the 700. I'm ordering the 750 instead. Bob F.

Hmm,, I looked at both. I liked the 630 more. I was able to keep the price within $99 of the 530 when I got mine at Circuit City. It was just prior to them announcing they were shutting down. I think they were willing to deal on certain items. They matched the Amazon price in December and I was very happy with the deal. Although I always forget Amazon has the edge after taxes, but I got it the day I looked at it so to me it was worth the extra $. The 120HZ is a constant on the LN52A630. It's not to be confused with the Auto Motion Plus feature. The AMP is great for sports and documentary type programs or anything in a live format like news and such. For movies I'd turn it off. Both were nice sets, but for NOT much more $$ at the time I bought, I'd say the 630 was the better value.

This one is prettier! I have the 650 but I don't have the 640 so I can't really make a comment if whether they have the near exact specifications like you stated. I always thought the bigger the model number the better. If I have time I might stop by a Best Buy to play around with it. If you can get the 650 for $900 free shipping on amazon, it's still a good deal. But if you're fortunate enough to live in a state that has a brick and mortar Fry's Electronics, sometimes they have it on sale for $700 plus tax. Their price is different though via frys dot com. You can wait around until Thanksgiving but I don't think it's gonna drop to less than $800 on a 1-day sale. This one is prettier!

As far as I know they are not recieving the new updated model and I just base that on others peoples reviews here on amazon..The new 275lm model just came out a few months ago I think...if you ask me I think people will keep getting the old model until they run out.

Sorry, I don't know if there is a difference. Maybe the prices just vary. I would compare and make sure the model #'s are exactly the same, and if not, research the model numbers.

I recently got a LN40C650 and researched it up and down, and honestly I never heard of any power supply issues. The most recent edition of Consumer Reports puts Samsung LCDs near the top for reliability, picture quality and value. I don't think you should base your buying decision on that power supply issue. (just my opinion)

Actually just found it. Best Buy carries the the LN32b640. $799 on their website. It may be a Best Buy exclusive item..

Hello Lynda , I bought a new one just because the price difference wasn't that great so I just went with new! I am sure if you want to save a couple of bucks you couldn't go wrong!

Should play beautifully with all other things being equal. All machine brands I have owned have been picky about tape brands for some reason, and the Sony N750 is no different. I have had luck with Sony tapes in the past and I am using Maxell now. BASF, RCA, Fuji, etc, all had problems, mostly with rolling picture or sound lines. Also, 8-hour tapes have always been best for me. Other than that, the two machines should be good friends.

I'm not familiar with that particular model (The 4096), but the LNS series has been replaced by the LNT series. From what I have heard through extensive research, the LNS line had clouding on dark backgrounds, a problem shared with the Sony LCDs, since they use the same exact image panel.Keep in mind that this is a fantastic deal on the 4061 currently on Amazon. Go to a brick and mortar store and it will be several hundred dollars more. I think you are probably spot on with your assessment of the situation regarding the price. I just purchased the LNT-4061 today after extensive research, and here's hoping it's not too good to be true.

I have been doing lot of research on LCD TVs and my observation is LN52B750 is best with internet, 240Hz and 2ms response time for almost same price as the other models. Red TOC some times distract your view compared to the Gray TOC in B750.Fry's in sunnyvale,CA has the B750 model for just $1704 until July 16th.

I was soo close to getting the 4081, but then the 750 series came around, and had the usb & lan inputs, plus the 750 has a better viewing angle 178* as opposed to 4081's 170* hdmi ports didn't make any difference to me. I saw the lan input as a possible upgrading futureproofing option (downloading new firmware and such).

I am really wondering about this new tx-nr515..... Provided there are no reviews out there about it, looking at the specs sheet I'm quite skeptical... I mean, it costs 200 more than the tx-nr609 and it has 3-4 additional minor features that can hardly justify the price difference. On the other hand, the tx-nr609 has even some extra features compared to its youngest sibling (higher W/ch, THX Select2 Plus certification, Audyssey DSX, and several other things). Check by yourself: http://www.eu.onkyo.com/en/product-comparison-58455.html?products=20674,11980 For some people the tx-nr515 might be the next big thing, but to me it seems more like an update of tx-nr609 with a much fatter price tag slapped on it. Ofc specs do not tell all of a device, also build quality, post-sale service and so on play their part... I'm interested in hearing other people's opinion about this, since I will be buying an a/v receiver in a couple months.

Only difference between A850 and A750 of screen thickness otherwise every thing is same. I'm having this TV since Nov 2008 and it worth every penny spent on this TV. I'm good fan of this TV and as per my experience about DLNA, I would recommend to buy BUFFALO LINKSTATION LIVE LS-CH1.0TL 1TB NAS driver which works best compare with Iomega Home Media N/w Drive. The only drawback of DLNA with Samsung is support FAT32 Filesystem as of now and have limited files supports, see below lists: Compatible files: DLNA-supported file types and extensions are listed below. Music - MP3 (.mp3) Photos - JPEG (.jpg, .jpeg) Video - MPEG1 (.mpg, .mpeg) MPEG2 (.mpg, .mpeg, .trp, .ts, .tp) DIVX (.mpg, .mpeg, .avi) MPEG4 AVC (.mpg, .mpeg) and you will be able to play the .avi files with the following codes Xvid, H.264 MP, MPEG4 SP, MPEG4 ASP and MJPEG. So for all other files you will have use any converting s/w. I hope these all information will be helpful to you people.
