Default Wow led tv
I cannot get over how much better the picture looks on an LED TV. We bought one today, 55 inches, and I mounted it on the wall. Just got done and popped in Wolverine to test it out.
This has got to be one of the best pictures I've seen. We were going to get a Samsung but opted to save some dough until next year and got the Vizio. I'll upgrade next year and move the Vizio to the office.
For the time being I'm hooked on LED TV.

Have not seen one of these yet. Guess I should check one out next time I'm at a store, I bet Costco has some.

What were you watching before the led?

The problem will be that now even the commercials look good.

Plasma's & LCD's ( Newer Models) = C5 - Z06 & LED's = C6 and will be pushing C7's.. There are many other factors but this is in Layman's Terms..

Saw the new 55 inch Vizio at Sam's for $1999 next to last years non-LED for $1445.

I'd pay the extra coin.

Sam's here had them for $1878, very good picture.
We had a 65" Toshiba rear projection before this. We've got a 42 inch Samsung LCD in the bedroom but it does nothing compared to the LED. Absolutely amazing picture quality.
I was deep in thought on the Samsung UN55B8500 with the backlight LED but over double the cost, I'll wait.
