I need some suggestions for a very nice high-end LED TV. I have a good size budget, so price is not a huge deal, here are my (few) requirements:


- 50-55"

- 240 Hz

- Not dead set on any specific brands, have a Panny Plasma and a Samsung, but don't mind trying something else if it's better.


Appreciate any advice from you fine folks here, Thanks!

either samsung models:

UN55B8000 which is a 240hz LED with Edge-lit dimming for around $2500 or for around $3100 you can get the best LED model available (going off CNET reviews), the Samsung UN55B8500 which is local dimming.

I'm not sure when you want to purchase the television but Sony is releasing a (>55") back-lit LED NX900 this summer... it's 3D, 240hz, local dimming, etc.

Otherwise, if you can still find the Sony XBR8 and Samsung B8500, those are probably the best you can get today.

If you can wait til the NEWER LED TV's hit market (June-July) then do so. If you want to purchase now, I would say take a look @ the LG LHX. You don't hear too much about this set because it's LG, but right now it might be the BEST LED TV on the market..
