Turn on the Samsung LN40A450 and prepare to be dazzled by its beautiful high-definition picture. This compact set delivers crisp, clean images with vibrant colors and deep black levels. Suitable for a home theater, its small footprint also makes it ideal for a bedroom, office or den.
This slim HDTV has built-in tuners for both digital and analog over-the-air broadcasts (antenna required). These tuners ensure that you'll continue to get a clean, vibrant picture well beyond the current transition period and after the switchover to digital is completed in 2009. And if you're a cable TV subscriber, you can take advantage of the LN40A450's built-in "QAM" digital cable tuner to watch unscrambled channels without using a separate set-top box. HDTV programs look amazing, and non-HD channels look surprisingly good as well, thanks to Samsung's advanced video processing.
The LN40A450 gives you a wealth of inputs for connecting both high-definition and standard-definition sources, including three HDMI inputs for hooking up compatible devices such as satellite receivers and Blu-ray Disc players. A standard PC input lets this set pull double duty as a computer monitor.
