Wide Color Enhancer/Cold Cathode Flourescent Lamp

Audio Features
TruSurround is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience through any two-speaker playback system, including internal television speakers and headphones. It is fully compatible with all multichannel formats up to 5.1 channels. High-quality virtual surround sound can be experienced with just the two hidden, downward-firing side-mounted 2.2-channel dome speakers built into the TV.SRS TruSurround XT technology delivers an amazing, simulated 3D effect with clear dialog and powerful bass.
TruSurround XT audio also adds three audio enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience.
- Dialog Clarity brings movie dialog into Focus during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and crisper.
- TruBass creates incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low bass tones that are far beyond the physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself.
- The SRS WOW feature widens the soundstage by processing standard two-channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo audio over a two-speaker system.
Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?
 | With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience.

Customer Review: Bad customer service and repair!!
I purchased this tv in 2008, nice tv, I like it. After 6 months I had a problem with it. I called Samsung and told them that I wanted a new tv. Samsung said that "that is not their policy" and told me to send it back for repair. I told them that the tv was going to get banged up in shipping and at the repair factory. I get the tv back and it is scratched. I hook up the tv and it starts doing the same thing that I sent it it for. I call Samsung again and they tell me that they will send me out a new one. Why didn't they just do that from the beginning? I now have to wait until I get an e-label for shipping and send it back again, when they get it they will send me a new one. What a major pain!!
Customer Review: good tv, confusing advertising
Samsung LN22A650 22-Inch 720p LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color I researched this tv on samsung's website and others and couldn't figure out if it was actually a 3000:1 ratio or 5000:1 ratio. it was advertised as both, depending on where you looked. i took a chance and paid the extra hundred or so dollars, only to find out it was 3000:1. so why did i pay more money? otherwise, the tv's picture is super sharp and i have no complaints about that. the sound is horrible...you have to max it out just to get a medium volume, but my previous tv was the same way. set up was easy and the touch of color is nice, but not worth an extra hundred. overall, it's a great little 22" tv...probably better than most.
