The new 51 series of LCD panels from Samsung's state-of-the-art Gen 7 plant represent an exciting synthesis of design and technology. The thin bezel, hidden speaker cabinet design ensures clean lines as well as a sleek, contemporary look. For gaming enthusiasts, Samsung worked closely with Microsoft engineers to create a special Game Mode that optimizes image quality, sound and response time for realistic video game play. An RS232 port allows users to navigate the player's content on-screen with the LCD remote by connecting the device to the TV via RS232 cables. 51 Series HDTVs feature a 170 degree viewing angle and a 4000:1 dynamic contrast ratio for a true cinematic HDTV picture. Two HDMI connections make it easy to connect the entire range of digital peripheral devices and the unique ?swivel? stand lets users adjust the viewing angle to suit their needs. An integrated ATSC Tuner allows for off air reception of HDTV broadcasts (requires optional HDTV antenna).   Show Less
