Touch of Color

Touch of Color Samsung’s Series 6 marks the first appearance of TOC (Touch of Color) design in the 2008 LCD HDTV line-up. Inspired by designs from the automotive and fashion industries, Samsung’s unique unique Transparent and Opaque Color molding process creates a clean, smooth finish infused with a hint of a translucent color during the manufacturing process for an ultra-sleek appearance.


3,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio

25,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio 3,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio will give you a superb picture, with whiter whites, blacker blacks and a nearly infinite subtlety of gradations in between. As two of the most important determining factors in overall picture quality, contrast and brightness levels achieve new heights in this latest generation LCD panel. Samsung’s new LCD TV’s give the most stunning realistic picture quality ever.


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 very satisfactory   November 16, 2008
Marcelyn Sinclair (california)
I have found this TV very satisfactory. I am using it in the kichen
to replace a 13" and am enjoying the very clear and good color picture.
I would recommend it highly for use in any room.



5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Picture!   October 18, 2008

As others have said don't let the "touch of red" keep you for your purchase. I like the color it makes it look more richer. As for the connections on the back of the set, if you need to hook it up to any device, it has a connection for it. I read many reviews on this set as well as reviews on other web sites. The rating for this is very high, and after receiving it, the reviews didn't let me down. The picture is just fantastic. It's has a whole lot of setting for any kind of lighting. There were only two things I didn't like 1. I thought the set up of the channels was a bit on the long side, it took about 30 minutes. 2. When you turn the set on, it has a delay which is a bit annoying. I do have basic cable which only has about 70 channels; I guess it had to check for HD which takes quite a long time. I'm not one of those high tech folks out there, but I do know that Amazon had the lowest price!!! It's worth every penny. I'm so glad I decided on the Samsung LN19A650


5 out of 5 stars Happy with TV   October 17, 2008

We bought this HDTV for use in our small travel trailer. It is a perfect size and weight. The picture is clear and crisp. We are quite happy with our choice. It is a great value.
I also support those commenting on the TOC red. It is almost not visable. Don't let it scare you off. I was afraid my wife would freak out, but she did not even know it was there until I told her.
A couple of folks complained the picture was too small (it's 19" - it won't be any bigger than that - do your homework).



4 out of 5 stars excellent TV   October 3, 2008

I use this TV in my bedroom. The picture and features are great! I'm very happy that I decided to make this purchase, although the screen does look a little smaller than I thought it would. You may wish to consider a 20" or 22" instead. The 19" does work OK for me, though, because I'm only about 5' away from it.

I wish Amazon would be more careful with their packaging. The TV came in its original box from the mfg'er, which was put into a box about twice as large with very little packing material for cushioning. Very poor job, Amazon!



5 out of 5 stars Wonderful set at a great price!   September 27, 2008

I am very pleased with this set! I'd purchased it to place in my kitchen; the viewing distance from my kitchen table to the set is 8 feet, and I can watch with perfect visibility; the kitchen counter stretches another 7 feet and I am fine viewing the screen from that distance as well. Hooking up the HD cable box is a piece of cake, and I'd completed the task within 20 minutes; the TV will then automatically update the channels and you can of course, customize them as well. The color is great, and the deep red color within the frame of the set is very subtle. I truly believe that the clarity and crispness of this picture is better than my larger diameter HD set! Additionally, Samsung ranks high on dependability...

The savings on the set is significant; PC Richards offered me a "rock bottom" price of $450.00; with tax, it was topping out at $481.00. Here at Amazon, there wasn't any sales tax, and being I am an Amazon prime member, I received 2 day shipping at no extra charge! Collectively, it is a savings of over $100.00!

Buy this set; you won't be disappointed!
