From its elegant piano black finish to its SRS TruSurround HD audio system it's obvious the Samsung LN37B530 is no ordinary HDTV. It's got three HDMI v1.3 ports, enough for both a Blu-ray disc player and a gaming console with one left over. It's also got both composite and component video inputs but it's what it does with the input that seals the deal.

With a 60,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, this TV displays rich, saturated colors without losing detail in darker parts of the picture. Its 6 ms response time virtually eliminates motion blur in fast moving scenes. And it remembers your settings for each input so you don't have to fiddle with them once you've got them tuned to your liking.

The sleep timer will turn the set off so you can drift off to sleep while watching the late movie and it can wake you up to your favorite morning program.

In Game Mode you'll enjoy sharp picture quality, optimum audio and enhanced blacks. Game Mode speeds up image processing response at the touch of a button so you get the most out of your gaming experience.

Whether you're a gamer, a movie buff, a videophile or just want an outstanding viewing experience at an excellent price you'll find a lot to like in the Samsung LN37B530.

1080p Resolution Is The Best There Is
Enjoy outstanding clarity and resolution with the LN37B530 LCD HDTV. Images are crisper and sharper with superior details.
60,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio Improves Your Image
Contrast and brightness levels achieve new heights in this HDTV. Get a more realistic, sharper picture quality that's sure to catch your eye. Watch movies and TV shows come to life.
6 ms Response Time For The Best Motion in Pictures
One of the most important features for an LCD panel is the pixel response time. Response time refers to the amount of time it takes a pixel to "refresh" itself—to go from being active to being inactive, (ready to be re-activated). The lower the milliseconds, the faster the response time. A very fast 6 ms response time virtually eliminates any blurring and gives you smooth-motion action scenes.
Game Mode Isn't Fooling Around
Get in the game with enhanced blacks, sharp picture quality and optimum audio. At the touch of a button, game mode speeds up the image processing response so you get the most out of your gaming experience.
Energy Star Rating Isn't Just For Refrigerators and Air Conditioners
This set complies with Energy Star 3.0, the latest, strictest standard jointly developed by the EPA and DOE. What it means to you is saving money on energy costs while helping the environment by using less energy.
Anynet+ Puts You In Control
Anynet+ is Samsung's brand name for HDMI-CEC, an industry-wide standard that allows you to use multiple components from a single remote control. No more entering codes and multiple remotes to keep track of. Anynet+ is a one stop solution to out of control remote controls.
SRS TruSurround HD
SRS TruSurround HD creates the illusion of a having more than two speakers. It takes modern multi-channel soundtracks that most DVD and Blu-ray discs have these days and creates "phantom speakers" that seem to be all around you. The result is a truly amazing surround sound effect that has to be heard to be appreciated. TruSurround also helps make dialogue easier to understand. When movie sound tracks are played through home systems dialog often times becomes muffled and unintelligible. Proprietary algorithms in TS HD enhance signal clarity to address these problems giving you clear, defined dialogue in less than ideal listening environments.
