Samsung D8000 Audio: Can anyone speak to the audio quality on the Samsung D8000?

Sound bars pretty much look like the center speaker you would have, but a bit bigger (depending on the brand and version) and attempt to emulate a surround sound experience.Obviously, you never get the full surround sound you will have with your 5.1 system, but it saves you alot of space, almost no wiring (generally, it will be a cable hooked up to the tv, and another for the woofer, with some woofers connecting wirelessly). Would work best in smaller rooms, or for those looking to augment the typically poor sound emanating from the flat screen tvs. Their prices vary from under $100 up to $1500+ Amazon has a huge selection. While at bestbuy, I listened to a few of them, with the Sony CT150 and the PolkAudio 3000/6000 producing the best sound for my taste (samsungs were horrid, and Boston Acoustic [dont remember which one] seemed muffled).

I honestly don't know and have not experienced this issue. I guess now that you mention it, I did feel like when people talked on this tv it did seem a little low. I would mess around with the audio settings and see if anything helps in there. If not, I would reach out to LG or research on some forums on the internet.

I have a Samsung ln40b610 and I hate the dejudder processing. It makes motion look so unrealistic and completely ruins the magic of movies for me. There is also still a lot of blur and ghosting, even with the anti-blur setting turned all the way up. I think LCDs are just inherently poor at handling motion. 120Hz and 240Hz does help a little bit, but not really that much.

I just got mine in the mail today and tried a few small videos around the house and am having video quality issues as well. I would say I'm not even getting 480i quality. The image is incredibly speckly (non-static blotches moving around in the darks). Looks the same whether I play it on my HDTV or on my computer (plenty fast for HD video). What am I doing wrong? Tried wiping the lens with a lens cloth...no effect. Batteries weren't charged yet, but since it's digital, not sure that should make a difference.Also, as a side note, do the people who are getting good quality use the digital zoom at all, or does it degrade your resolution by half?

Hi i just bought this tv and loved it until I turned down the volume and had the same problem. I am returning it unfortunately but for the price it is a steal :-)

I forgot to mention; I have a separate sound system, so I'm mostly concerned with the picture. How would you compare the picture quality of the two TVs?

I'm no audiophile, so I can't vouch for the quality of the audio, but it sounds quite good to me. And yes, if you have headphones hooked in, you can listen to the audio as it is being captured. Just to let you know, I own the DS-40, but I think the only difference between that model and this one is the memory.

hi there - did you also apply the firmware upgrade? wondering if that helps the noise further. thanks- andrew

I think that is just your auto focus. I get the same sounds from my Nikon D3100 in the video mode. But, only when it is focusing. These are primarily still picture cameras. Video is just a nice option and as yet not quite perfected yet, I guess. The more you use the video function, the better you will get at focusing and you can kinda work through it. I personally don't use it that much, but it's nice to have if you do need it.

Sure there is some noise at higher ISOs. My D5000 has noise at high ISOs too. Unless you are doing extreme cropping or making 11 X 14 inch prints I don't see much of a problem. I think way too much is made about "noise" in digicams. If you really need super quality, spend $1100. for a Nikon D7100 and a bag of lenses and you'll get superior results for sure. This camera does an excellent job for such a small sensor. Use low ISOs where you can. Your best bet it try it for yourself. Amazon has a great return policy. So far I'm very pleasantly surprised at the image quality and functionality of this small package. Sure there is some noise at higher ISOs. My D5000 has noise at high ISOs too.

Is the picture sharp or grainy? I read some complaints about grainy/noise picture quality from SD880.

"To get the best audio quality, navigate to the 'Settings' menu on your Galaxy S4 and go to 'My Device -&gt; Accessory'. Tap 'Audio output', and select 'Surround" This is what I did to my galaxy in order to make it work.. hope it works for you

I'm no audiophile, but I've only heard a distinct drop in quality on my phone. At my computer, streaming music through Google Play, though, it's identical to my ears.

There are many videos on YouTube that show what AF sounds like. I recommend checking those out. I'm thinking about getting a Zoom H1 for my D600.
