"Amazing Set, best bang for the buck" By alfonsorivera

Pros 120Hz, Motion Plus, Matte Screen, Amazing Picture Quality

Cons Sounds is ok, swivel stand is slanted (could be my set only...working on that)

Summary After several months of researching, trying and comparing LCD's I decided on this one. The final contestants were the A550, A630, and A650. The A550 was the cheaper option with 60 Hz. and I almost bought it for the price/ratings. I decided to wait and go with the ... Expand full review
