Image Quality and Connectivity:
This
Samsung UN55B6000 is excellent technology and priced to move. We've got
it hooked up to a cable box (MOT DCT 6200) via the 1 component
connection and the image is sharp and crispy and the colors are vivid
and bright.
We have an older PC connected via the VGA
connection and the 3.5mm mini audio connection. Internet browser
windows come up real sharp in 1920x1280i resolution. Sidebar: I'm also
using wi fi and wireless mouse and keyboard.
Hi-res images
look fantastic. This TV was assembled with web-browsing and computing
in mind (Net widget, USB, JPEG and mp3 friendly) and Samsung has nailed
it.
Online Support and Configuring the Cable Box:
Initially,
the cable box was sending 720x480i to the TV. Fortunately I was able to
find forums online with posts from a Samsung HD Tech and a cable co.
employee that outlined the solution -- turn off the cable box, hit the
menu button (cable remote) and here you can select the higher (or
different) resolution.
Additionally, the cable box required
two power cycles for this (resolution) change to take effect but when
it did I was viewing cable tv in 1920x1080i.
Using Samsung's P.Size (Picture) Button:
When
watching cable programming broadcast in HD, the 16:9 (aspect ratio)
mode looks the best to me. For standard definition programming the
Wide-Fit mode stretches the image a bit to fill the screen.
I've
noticed some adjusting is required when flipping between channels, for
example, sometimes CNN ticker text is below the screen and other times
the Fox Sports Net FSN graphic is a bit above the screen. Perhaps this
issue is addressed in the screen-fit mode, I'm not sure yet, I'll have
to mash a few more buttons. Overall, I give it 4.5 stars.

I got this Samsung UN55B6000 to replace a dead Sony KDL52W3000 that was just shy of 20 months old.
For
the price, it came down to this or the 52XBR9. I took the Samsung cause
the picture looked sharper at the store and while still smarting from a
Sony reliability issue.
Once set up at home, I started to reconsider
my choice. While the dark levels are definitly darker, the glossy
screen is a nuissance during low lit scenes.
The bezel design is
such that the speakers have nowhere to go but behind the TV which
relies purely on the condition and distance of the wall behind it.
Compared to the Sony, the sound coming out of this TV sucked.
Samsung
defaults their screen with 95% contrast level. So there's not much room
for increased contrasts if you ever need to. I believe this is how
Samsung obtains their contrast advantage, raise it to max then cover it
with a glossy screen.
The slim design also limits source input
options. It comes with 4 HDMIs and only either a component or composite
source. With the Sony I can connect all my sources redundantly so no
need to boot up the power hungry receiver 100% of the time.
So if
you hook up all your components into the TV via HDMI, the sound going
into your A/V receiver depends on how well the TV can pass it through.

Top Review Samsung UN55B600 LED HDTV
Discount Samsung UN55B6000 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV
After
only 3 weeks of owning this TV, the TV randomly shut off on its own
while we were watching TV. Now the TV constantly just turns on and
turns off (with no actual image being displayed on the screen). The
only way to shut it off is to disconnect it from the main power source.
Called Samsung and apparently it's an issue with the power supply, and
they have to send a technician to repair. Turns out, this is a common
issue with Samsung. I am not amused that after spending 2500$ on a
brand new TV, it will need repair after only owning it for 3 weeks..

Buying Samsung UN55B6000 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV
Great
TV and was going to purchase but the TOC Red personally looks terrible
and is a distraction to me. Decided to go with the UN55B8000. A
slightly techcially advanced set, 240Hz vs 120Hz refresh and 2 ms pixel
response time vs 4ms. TOC on the 8000 is Gray/Clear which IMO looks
much better.

This
purchase was just so very simple we couldn't believe it. We are sold on
shopping this new way for us. We absolutely love our TV. The men came
in, took it out of the box, set it up and pluged it in to see if it
worked and we were set to go. So simple. Also we couldn't believe the
price. We did shop around to see what we wanted. Amazon can't be beat..
