I was ready to throw out this TV until I spent hours getting these settings right. I placed it next to my 42" 3yr old Samsung Plasma (cloaked as Emerson from Walmart '09) as a comparison. After the I applied these settings the picture blew my mind... it now looks better than my plasma. CRAP! If you can get the picture settings better than this please advise here. I will check back regularly. BTW, these are the only settings on the net as of this time.
