Wide Color Enhancer/Cold Cathode Flourescent Lamp

The NTSC (National Television Systems Committee) has established the color standards all TVs in America try to meet. And typical LCD TVs only meet about 72% of this standard. Samsung LCD HDTVs use Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp backlights to give you 92% coverage of the NTSC standard, ensuring truer, more breathlessly vivid colors.

Samsung?s exclusive Wide Color Enhancer technology delivers more brilliant colors, even in bright areas of the picture where blues and greens are washed out on conventional screens. The system displays wider color reproduction, showing you truer colors ? the fresh green of spring foliage, the intense blue of the summer sky.

Connectivity

wiselink
To make the Series 6 a true entertainment hub for any home, Samsung has incorporated advanced HD connectivity and networking capabilities that expand the HDTV?s functionality. HDMI is the best performing interface for displaying an HD source on an HDTV. A wide variety of multimedia devices can be connected to the set through the HDMI 1.3 inputs and the handy rear USB port.

Once connected, users can easily access device menus and manage and display content through the newly redesigned Wheel Key Remote control and the HDTV?s sophisticated content management interface.

All Connections
  • HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface version 1.3): 1
  • Component video: 1 rear (Y, Pb, Pr)
  • S-Video input: 1 rear
  • A/V inputs: 1 side/1 rear
  • PC Input (D-Sub): 1 rear
  • RF antenna inputs: 2
  • Premium audio: Improved sound quality with dedicated low-range speaker system
  • Headphone jack


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.
Stereo broadcast reception is offered for MTS and SAP with 181-channel capacity. A sound leveler keeps audio volume consistent during channel changing.

Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?

HDTV Size chart
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.
If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.
  • Minimum size = Viewing distance/3
  • Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

4 out of 5 stars good deal   November 23, 2008
Samsung LN22A650 22-Inch 720p LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color This is a nice little tv for the price, I use it in my bedroom. It was easy to set on the stand (although I was under the impression from the product details on line, that the tv came with a swivel stand, not the stationary stand it came with). The only other thing that I would change is the design of the remote control. The way it is designed it is very awkward to use, it seems weighted towards the front end, thus when using the buttons towards bottom of remote, it tends to fall out of your hand. Other than that I am pleased with the product, no problems with picture or sound, I would recommend this product to others


4 out of 5 stars Good Job Amazon   November 23, 2008
First set was DOA. Amazon had a replacement on the way which arrived within two days, I believe, of alerting them. They made the return painless too.
As for the television. It's okay. Touch of red on the frame is nice. Picture is okay. I had a devil of a time getting a picture as the 2d television on a Dishnet system. I like it but it does not swivel on its pedestal.



4 out of 5 stars Good picture - limited vertical viewing   November 16, 2008
Bought this for the bedroom. Setup easy. Vertical viewing angle is limited so I had to put some foam under the back of the stand to angle
it down somewhat. The stand for the 19" adjusts, but not the 22".

Picture is good, even on the analog channels. Strong tuner.

Once you set up the channels, you have to put in exactly the channel number on the remote..for example, 4-1, not just 4. I have a larger Samsung that will go to 4-1 when I enter 4.

All else excellent.




5 out of 5 stars Great Find Good Buy   November 11, 2008
I was really pleased with the whole transaction with Amazon. I paid attention to Consumer and Product Reviews while shopping carefully. Samsung packaged this television very well and shipping condition was flawless. Setup and tuning in the Remote is very easy with Display being superb. Other Reviewers were right on when they stated that the Red Frame was darker than shown. It is actually quite subtle and not bright at all. Set has been used daily without any problem for over a month now.


4 out of 5 stars Great TV, Speakers could be a little better.   November 4, 2008
I really do like this TV, great picture, good menu setup, nice quality housing and stand. I do agree that the speakers could have been a little better, and/or more powerful. This is the only reason that I didn't mark it a five.
