Very nice unit for a chip board ting. The trims are MDF. Took two hours to put together. It's darker than the pic which is good)

Fit my hefty center channel on top and amp in the miggle.

Not bad for $1200TT. As yuh could see, it's $100US in Walmart.

I don't rate up bravia too much either but I'm very pleased with the pic quality of this panel. 15K

It was only for the bravia that the 4yrs warranty was offered so it seemed liked a good deal otherwise I would've gotten either a samsung / lg / panasonic plasma.

Couldn't afford to build a HT with separate components so end up buying this , really powerful system & excellent sound quality

[S_2NR]

Bravias have great picture quality. Love them. Sony displays have a signature look to them and you really have to like it to appreciate it. Same with my xperia z tablet. Sony is my favorite brand for displays in terms of picture quality

Dont really like samsung as a company though.
They look cheap and plastic. they have quality control issues also. fedup hear ppl complain about samsung tvs, phones, blu ray players, etc.

watch what went on with this guy:




brb never buying samsung again.

[ru$$ell]

^you can't knock samsung on their LCD/LED/Plasma panel's when it come to quality,its the best on the market right now.

My Samsung LCD i bought back in 2009 still going strong,just the other day i swear something in it went wrong,cause it was only switching back to dynamic mode with brightness at 10.Did a quick google search to realize electricity went the other day and it was in store demo mode,and resets itself every 5-10 mins.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ true.

I bought a Samsung plasma in 2009 and I'm hard pressed to find a panel that can compare to the black levels and colour accuracy.

Some ppl think bright, jacked up colour is good, but it isn't. It's badly calibrated or not capable of presenting accurate colour.

[S_2NR]

Not disputing Samsungs look good you know. But that there are other things to consider when making a purchase

[Dave]

Sammys on the whole have earned their respect over the last couple of years but ppl still have some stigma to them.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

well its a TV screen - so panel picture quality is everything

it's not like you going to drop it and complain that it feels flimsy and the battery cover always comes out or that it is the last manufacturer to issue their version of android updates

most people who buy a TV looking for top picture quality, accurate colour and inky blacks are going to be using the panel for picture alone and running all their audio through a reciever - the TV is just a monitor of sorts.

for more than a few years now Samsung and Panasonic panels have topped the charts for picture quality.

The Panasonic TC-PVT60 series and the Samsung UNF8000 and PNF8500 series are perhaps the best panels out there.

CNET said about the Samsung Plasma PNF8500:
The good: The Samsung PNF8500 series exhibits outstanding picture quality with a class-leading bright-room image, exceedingly deep black levels, very good shadow detail, highly accurate colors and superb off-angle and uniformity characteristics

The bad: Extremely expensive

The bottom line: Samsung's best-performing TV ever, the PNF8500 series pushes the plasma picture quality envelope, especially in bright rooms.

Also LUXSAM in Chaguanas are the authorised Samsung TV dealership and they repair Samsung Tvs in and out of warranty. I don't know if there is a SONY dealer here that can do that.

[Advent]

Yeah Sammy improved but their screens are gorgeous

[2NR Smurf]

my samsung led tv panel malfunctioning after 2yrs time

[S_2NR]

See what I mean ^

[desifemlove]

Looking for ah small system that can play MP3s and CDs, jus for a bedroom or living room.

Any places in Trini selling, or is dis a Skybox ting?

[iM@st@1]

iM@st@1 where you get that yamaha htib, Local or amazon, and price?

Bought it on Amazon warehouse deals, used like new for $356US.

I didn't look around to get it local nah, if u come across anyone selling it wouldn't mind knowing the price it going for

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

See what I mean ^

My sister-in-law's sony plasma stopped working and there was no one here that could fix it

What's your point?

[S_2NR]

Samsung has shitty quality control. Yea you may have no problems, that doesnt mean they dont generally have their issues. I prefer sony, lg and panasonic over samsung for build quality and durability. Dont get me wrong, they are all good brands but some are built better than others.

I disagree. Just because you're gonna set a tv down and never move it doesnt mean durability isnt an issue. Depending on the build quality of the internals and the overall design, that would determine how long it lasts with everyday use. So you dont have to drop your tv to test how durable it is. I think any tv when dropped will suffer damage.

If you love samsung, its your money. Buy it and be happy.

[rodfarva]

This could be completely random or coincidental, but I know 3 people who have bought samsung HDTVs and ended up having major problems with their sets. as compared to one person having trouble with another brand (sharp, after a major power surge)

Now Samsung may have fixed their reliability (I dont know)
For me, bringing a new TV into my home is a Difficult undertaking.
Theyre Big, Usually requiring more than a regular Car to get it from the Store to home.
Usually need at least 2 people to get it up to my floor.
I wall mount, which takes some time, fiddling and effort.
Im finicky about wires, more time and effort.
I use a Harmony remote, more time and effort
I fine tune my picture quality, you get the point.

It would drive me insane to go through all of that effort and then have a problem which, in effect forces me to undo it all, at great trouble to get it replaced/repaired.

Just the knowledge that Samsung TVs have failed people I know in the past is enough to keep me from investing (time and effort) in them. I could be completely wrong about it, but I dont think that Im the only one who thinks this way.

[crazybalhead]

Rod I know exactly how yuh feel hoss.

Can score the pnf 8500 2013 model for 700usd less than the 8000 2013 model
