"Has the best user interface for calibration ever without having to enter the service menu. The colors are precise and consistent across the full spectrum of media from on-air HD signals to SD DVDs to Blu-Ray to Xbox 360 and PS3 Games.

After using a calibration disc, I had to tweak a few settings after about 100 hours of use. Since then, the set has been rock-solid. As each input holds it's own calibration setting, the set can be tuned for each unique input device.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would not have believed it, but I am convinced that the blacks produced by this set are very close to the blacks of a Pioneer Kuro...and I can play games for hours on end and never even have to think about burn-in.

The speakers are nothing to shout about, but who is going to watch a 52" monitor without an external audio system anyway?

At the price this unit sells for it is, in my opinion, the best priced large screen monitor on the market today!

I've added some images of the calibrated images I put up on the AVS forum for LN52A650 calibration after the post 100 hour calibration. As great as they look, they simply can't do justice for this incredible set!"
