 Very pleased with LCD and delivery November 15, 2008

1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After hours of research and reading reviews, I purchased this LCD from Amazon on Sunday night November 2. It arrived at my home in rural Minnesota on November 7. Delivery was great and the LCD was in perfect condition. I plugged the LCD into my Onkyo receiver and into my HD cable box via HDMI cables. Absolutely stunning picture! Beautiful, crisp, perfect picture. The LCD is everything I expected. I previously purchased the LN37A550 from Amazon and we like it so well that I bought this LN46A550 for our family room. Great TV, it integrates beautifully with our Onkyo home theater system. I tweaked settings based on recommendations and my own taste, and we are extremely pleased with this LCD. The price, the delivery, the picture quality - excellent all the way around. We could not be happier with this buying experience. We think this is a fabulous television.

This set is everything that it was reputed to be. Consumer Reports rated it #1 and they were right. If there is any problems it would be in adjusting the sound equilizaton, but that may just be me.
 WARNING! Amazon shipping damaged LCD TVs! November 13, 2008
Burned Twice

UPDATE: 3rd TV arrived with scratches on the screen and all over the casing. Something strange has to be going on with the batch of LN46A550's that Amazon is pulling from in this part of the country. Amazon said they will temporarily pull this model from their website, until it is determined where the damaged units are coming from. Needless to say, I will not be ordering another TV from Amazon. And yes, Samsung gets bad marks for poor quality control.
WARNING!!! We purchased the Samsung LN46A550 LCD TV and when it arrived it had a huge scratch across the screen. We obviously did not accept that item and had it returned. I called Amazon and they could not expedite a replacement, we had to wait the standard shipping period. When the second TV arrived, it too had a huge scratch on the screen! So, we had to return that one as well. Amazon issued a small $30 credit for our troubles, but I still don't have a TV. We are awaiting the 3rd TV now. When all is said and done, it will be well over a month before we receive our TV (assuming the next replacement is not defective as well). I requested that Amazon send out 2-3 TVs on the next shipment and then we open the boxes until we find an undamaged TV (then the shippers could just take the others back). Of course Amazon couldn't do this...following their typical customer support script is more important than helping a twice burned customer.
So...BEWARE, Amazon could be re-shipping returned/defective items! Or...Samsung has a poor quality control department. Of course they both deny this.
If you are in no rush for your TV, go ahead and get your Samsung from Amazon...just be warned that your savings by buying it online may not be worth the headaches.
Sorry Samsung...but until Amazon can get their act together and deliver a functional TV, you will get the lowest rating possible due to poor quality control.
Everything I asked for! November 11, 2008

From the delivery to the price to the picture, everything was perfect! The white glove delivery from Amazon was great; when they called to schedule the delivery with Pilot freight, she told me if I wanted two people and the true "white glove" (where I do nothing), I'd get it by Saturday. If they lost a dude and I pitched in with the carrying (which I might have done anyway, I hate watching others do stuff for me), I could get the delivery the next day (it was last Monday, FYI). The guy was extremely helpful, set-up was great, I just had to take the packaging out myself (a terrible 50-foot walk to the dumpster, oh no!!).
Turned on the tv and was happy as could be. I used CNET's configuration and fine-tuning to get the picture as good as I can get it and was very pleased (CNET is a great site for research, by the way, use it for any tv!). The HD picture is great, even if I'm stuck with crap-tastic Comcast for the time being. I also ordered a combo home theater/upscaling DVD player, so I'll have to see if the picture is decent or not. Watched MNF last night, and it looked beautiful and all of my friends were impressed, which is all anyone cares about anyway (making your friends jealous with your cool stuff).
The price was dirt-cheap compared to other places, too. Ciruit City, Best Buy and Ultimate Electronics here in the Denver area wanted anywhere from $250 - $400 more than on Amazon. Free delivery and no tax was also a HUGE bonus, that saved me another $150 that you kinda forget about. Plus, you can add on HDMI cables that go for $50 most places for a buck. Not a misprint.
The only complaint are the god-awful speakers that sound like some kid in a tree house on a tin-can-on-wire connection. Terrible sound, even with the TRT 3D 8000 Surround-o plus-o-matic thing turned on. I think that radios on Omaha beach had a better sound than this tv's speakers. Alexander Graham Bell's first go-round had a clearer tone. And thus ends the joke...
Great tv, great price, great service. Enough said.

Excellent product! Very pleased with the product AND Amazon's "White Glove" delivery service. GREAT customer service. The delivery timing was outstanding! Then, they called to set-up a convenient time with me...called about 30-minutes before delivery...on-time...set-up the TV...and took away the trash!
LOVE the TV...not a fan of the speakers. (Okay, the sound on the TV stinks!) BUT, I have surround sound speakers, so, it doesn't really matter to me. I think that was Samsung's thinking. If you can afford to buy this TV, chances are you're going to have surround-sound ANYWAY...so, why spend the extra money on good speakers in the TV. (Not sure if I agree...but, it is what it is.)
Bottom-line: good purchase...very pleased with picture.
