My unit has no buzzing that I can hear and I don't know what rising black level means. The black level on my set is excellent.

Thanks for your thoughts. I think I'll try and find the 60" if I can. I did hear reports of buzzing and floating blacks on the U series, but not enough to know if it's any more inherent to that series as I've seen buzzing mentioned on just about any plasma.
