Rating: - Picture is stunning.
Amazon delivery was painless. Sound is mediocre. Good iluminated remote. Wish they had the LED in 72". Very happy with it so far.
Rating: - Pleased with product and delivery
Ordered on a Thursday; received call from shipping company on Sunday to schedule delivery, well before the promised following Friday delivery date. Delivery came off without a hitch--polite, complete service. The delivery person unboxed, checked for damage, and powered up the unit to make sure it functioned before he left. I did not purchase installation service. I connected the unit into my cable and was operating within minutes. Beautiful picture. I chose Samsung because they still have pip (really side-by-side picture). Internal tuner receives HD. Very pleased with its looks and performance.
Rating: - Great Picture - No problems thus far
I've only had the Samsung HL67A for a few weeks...but no problems thus far. A few comments:
- HD Picture is amazing.
- Very bright screen, almost too bright (Luckily I can adjust if needed)
- Sound is Adequate, but not as good as my old 46" DLP in the bedroom. Definitely you will want surround for Movies.
- SD picture is fairly rotten, to be honest. Standard 480p DVDs are great, but the Cox SD signal looks bad. What can you do ?? At 67" everything gets magnified.
- Startup times are great, and menus are straight forward.
Overall, I am VERY HAPPY. And no Lamp!!! I will never buy a lamp tv again.
Good Luck!

The set arrived several days early, and, being cold in PA on Nov 11th, I was told not to plug in the set until several hours had passed--this from the delivery men, who normally would help set up the set. I waited from the AM delivery until about 9PM, when I was sure the set was warmed up. In the meantime, I had hooked up the Blu-Ray player and HDMI receiver to the set, and all was plugged into an AC line cleaner and conditioner. FINALLY: the moment of TRUTH! The picture was wonderful! Good on regular DVDs and satellite TV--although the thin LED sets have the 120 refresh rate and 24Hz capabilities that this DLP set lacks. But on Blu-Ray discs, it is easily the match of my Sony XBR6 in our living room--and that set is only a 32" (smaller is usually "cleaner.") HOWEVER, I had an apprehension about ordering something BIG like this from Amazon, as there was one review where the buyer's set "went black" in ten days, and finally Amazon replaced his set. (I had told the delivery men to let me keep the packaging, "just in case.") Well, two hours after the set is on, and I am happily engrossed in a Blu-Ray DVD, a message appears on the screen: "CHECK FAN No 2" I had previously digested the thick manual, and NOTHING in the manual prepared me for this. While I was pondering where this message was coming from, the set shut off--along with the Blu-Ray. I didn't know whether the Blu-Ray player, the receiver, or the Samsung set off the warning. The next AM, same thing happened. THEN I called Amazon, and they told me to call Samsung, but, if I got no satisfaction, I was to re-call Amazon and they would pick the set up and exchange it or credit it. So far so good. When I had registered the set on-line, I immediately got a 3-month EVERYTHING FREE MAINTENANCE certificate. (The set's warranty is a year) I called the Samsung number, and eventually was connected to a dealer some 20 miles from my home. The dealer was none too happy that I had bought this set from a huge mail order company, and got me an appointment about a week later. When the repairman arrived, he did NOT have anything with him to repair the set--I had told them the problem over the phone--but I guess he needed to see what really was causing the problem. (By using satellite feed only, it was easy to determine that the problem was a fan in the set.) Anyhow, at the present, I have had the set in my home since Nov 11th, and it has run for all of about 8 hrs. The repairman DID determine that "Fan No 2" was NOT running, and he would have to order the part directly from Samsung, and not a local wholesaler. That will, I am told, take a week, and then, he will need to get back to me. So, today is 21 Nov., and the set is facing the wall in my "Man Cave" with the back off and all the parts scattered over my cabinet. In the end, I DO think all will be fine, and I will be forgetting this "bad dream" while watching my first football game! But, a word to the wise when one purchases something this complex via mail order only! Luckily, both Amazon and Samsung will stand by it all--and, the price was the main reason I got this set! Amazon had a 24 months no interest on their Amazon Store Card, and, compared to a Sony XBR6 52" ($3699) and the BEST set out there, bar none: 55" Sony XBR8 ($6999) it was a no-brainer to get a 67" set less than half of the XBR6!! And, had I gotten the "6" and knew that the "8" was MUCH BETTER, I'd have hated the "6." So--get a non-120 refresh rear projector, and get a great deal! Just so it EVENTUALLY WORKS!!! Note: this will probably NOT happen to you, dear reader. I truly am snakebit, and my problem--along with the other reviewer who had his set go black in ten days--is most likely NOT indicative of service anybody else will receive. And I state that both Amazon and Samsung are standing behind the set--they truly can do no more, right? Lastly, this is one BEAUTIFUL LARGE TV! The front is glossy black, and it sits on my black 82" console, with my stereo speakers flanking it, and a small black Bose center speaker in front, barely noticed. Even though it is a rear projector, it is VERY thin--maybe a foot deep in the center back, and one does NOT notice anything but the screen. (The hookup terminals are on the right rear side, so one does not have to crawl behind the set to hook everything up, and the power cord is detachable. The TV left and right speakers are floor standing, next to the cabinet, and my Earthquake Sound sub is off behind a sofa, with the surround speakers (5 of them) around my "Command seat." When this setup is working on a Blu-Ray disc, you will simply not believe it all!! And, guys" My WIFE LOVED the APPEARANCE, even though she said it was WAY TOO BIG!! In this case, bigger is WONDERFUL!
