Breakthrough edge-lit LED picture quality
Gorgeous all-round, your UN55B6000 1080p LED HDTV boasts
edge-lit LED technology. While in LCDs and backlit LEDs, the light
comes from behind the screen, edge-lit models, like this one, shine
from the edges. This creates more precise colors, deeper dark areas,
brighter light areas, and as much as 40% less energy consumption. Now
for the high definition images, Samsung LED technology enables a
true-to-life range of picture brightness from pure blacks to pristine
whites. Features like Enriched Color Expression deliver advanced
processing that ensures every image is as vibrant and colorful on
screen as it was when it was filmed
Ultra-slim design with a Touch of Color
Suited to your high-quality lifestyle, the UN55B6000 comes
equipped to impress. Touch of Color (ToC) is a manufacturing process
that infuses a rich red hue into the solid bezel during production,
eliminating the need for paints or plastic veneers. With a Touch of
Color, your Samsung TV will make a bold design statement hanging on
your wall. The B6000 line is also the slimmest (1.2" depth) panel of
any LED in the market — and it includes a tuner and power cord (no
external transceiver box) so your LED HDTV is clean and collected
Eco-friendly, ENERGY STAR® 3.0 certified
All of Samsung's LED TVs contribute to the
company's eco-friendly vision, consuming 40% less power than standard
CCFL-backlit LCD TVs, far below the stringent ENERGY STAR version 3.0
requirements. ENERGY STAR's Version 3.0 institutes standards for "power
on" certifications, which involve automatic light dimmers and a more
responsive screen that adjusts to the brightness in the room. As a
result, ENERGY STAR 3.0 certified HDTVS consume significantly less
energy than their predecessors, saving you more money over time by
virtue of the more efficient default settings. The TVs also use low
electricity and contain no mercury or lead, while the neck and stand
are made of eco-friendly materials. Furthermore, the slim lightweight
design reduces packaging materials and transportation energies.
Info link keeps you in touch
Just in case you spend so much of your time with your new
UN55B6000 that you forget to spend the appropriate amount of time
surfing the web, Samsung has included the InfoLink RSS feature on this
TV. You'll enjoy access to news, weather, sports, and stock information
from reputable sources like USA Today and others right on your screen
via RSS link. (requires internet connection). A USB 2.0 input lets you
connect to MP3 players, a thumb drive, or a digital camera quickly and
easily. And the smart, user-friendly interface allows you to access
playlists and pictures via your remote.
'Hi def' and connectivity go hand in hand
Video comes from more than one source these days, and that
doesn't mean from two sets of rabbit ears rigged together atop your TV.
No, video comes from DVD and Blu-ray, from cable and satellite, from
the internet and from your camcorder or digital camera. With so many
diverse sources, you need a diverse set of connectivity options . . .
and the UN55B6000 delivers. Four HDMI inputs (described in detail
below) provide optimal hi def connectivity, while one component-video
input and one S-video input are great for DVD and VHS input. Use your
new Samsung flat panel as a computer monitor for watching online
content with a PC input, and hook up your portable media player,
digital camera, or digital camcorder thanks to a Wiselink® USB v2.0
port.
Playing the numbers game — Auto Motion Plus 120Hz™
Here's a little secret: television and film were not created
equal. Film is shot at 24 frames per second. And just about every movie
disc you can buy is encoded at that speed. But television programming
runs at 30 frames per second, and most TVs conform to that standard.
When you watch a DVD on your TV, fitting that 24-frame content onto a
30-frame screen isn't a seamless process. You can't divide 24 by 30
evenly so video engineers fill in the gaps by placing one frame on the
screen three times and the next one after that two times, which can
cause stutter and other visual artifacts. Alternatively, 120Hz image
processing shows 120 frames per second, showing each film frame five
times and each TV frame four times, allowing TVs to reproduce
unconverted, evenly extrapolated 24 fps movie and 30 fps television
programming. The UN55B6000's Auto Motion Plus 120 Hz technology
virtually eliminates any motion blur and creates smooth transitions
between frames. The result is a clearer picture you have to see to
believe.
Sounds good, too
Picture is only half of the high definition experience. Sound
makes it complete. If you don't have the full surround sound setup, you
can still get a rich sound from the UN55B6000 with its SRS TruSurround
XT™. TruSurround is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem
of playing 5.1 multi channel content over two speakers. TruSurround
delivers a compelling, virtual surround-sound experience through any
two-speaker playback system, including internal television speakers and
headphones. It is fully compatible with all multi channel formats up to
5.1 channels. Take full advantage of this virtual surround-sound
experience with the UN55B6000's built-in dual 10W speakers and
integrated woofer
Veritable viewing versatility
A variety of video content sources mean you have a variety of
viewing needs. The UN55B6000's Entertainment mode allows customized
picture settings, optimized for different content, such as sports,
movies, or gaming. Picture-in-Picture (PIP) enables convenient
simultaneous viewing of TV programs and video or PC sources. Finally,
because your place will become the new favorite for movie night and
game-day viewing, you'll need the UN55B6000's wide 178° x 178° viewing
angle to give everyone a clear view of all the excitement.
Avoid the 'No wire' ire
The advent of HDMI has been monumental in the advancement of
all your favorite audio and video gadgets. Don't miss out on all that
your new UN55B6000 offers — in terms of high-definition audio and video
connectivity — by leaving a set of HDMI cables off the list. Vann's
sales representatives are here to explain all your options, so you can

system. Call the 800 number at the top of this page for expert advice.
