Sony KDS60AL120 Vs Sony KDS 60A2020 I have been looking at a 60A2020 at Sears and the 60AL120 at Sam's Club. I need to know how these two models compare. Does anyone have any feedback for me?

I think the TV's at Sam's and Costco are older models. The 60" SXRD I saw at Sam's included the stand for $1770.00. How can they be that much cheaper than Amazon unless they are selling 6-12 month old models. Don't trust Sam's!

if you sneak around to the back of the set you will see that model number as being the A2020 .... the AL120 is Sam's / Costco's item number for the combo which includes the stand

They are the exact same unit, except you get the stand with the TV at Sams. They just use their own item numbers at Sams Club and Costco.

It's true. xxA2000 and xxA2020 are old models. The current models end with A3000.

Interesting comments. If the wiki article is right, TCL isn't such a "no name" brand after all - I live in the midwest and I have heard of RCA. They were a lot bigger in the days when tube tv's were really big, they sorta got quiet in the LCD/plasma revolution. But anyway, if TCL == RCA, I might end up choosing this TV. Target & BB have a Samsung this size on Black Fri for 328$, and it looks like Toshibas and Samsungs this size in general are the deal at 320ish this year - an extra fifty bucks off for the TCL is almost enough for a bluray player to go with it on Black Fri (yep, really). =) Interesting comments.

YES, the A630 produces much better pictures. If you're a fan of the A-series, like I am, you'll be disappointed by the SD600. It takes blurry pictures with granulated pixels all over and the zoom is horrendous. The macro was good, as was Indoor, but NightTime, Portrait, and any zoomed photos looked horrendous. The A630 is the route to go.

I like the Samsungs. We have had Sony Bravia, Sharp, and Samsung, and the Samsungs of recent years including the model 6350 are sharper in picture and we like the apps better, however, when buying a blue ray player we still stick with Sony, they load faster and have a better user friendly menu.

Brad - I don't think you can go wrong with either camera. Add to for your consideration the Sony HX5 - it's on a par with these two.I looked long and hard at all 3 of these, researching specs and comments, as well as trying them out in camera stores, etc. I finally chose the S8100, although only coming out in September the amount of reviews is sparse - but even compared to the S8000 earlier model the improved S8100 proves to be a great camera. One thing I really like is the heft and feel of the camera, as well as the professional and high quality look and detail of the camera. It's a joy to take photos with this camera. The photos from it are stunning. Brad - I don't think you can go wrong with either camera.

I just bought mine from Sears for $879 and a 14mo. 0% finance offer. Had tried here and Best Buy but both were out of stock. Only concern I have now is whether to add the service agreement. I may make a bet that the 630 will last past the insurance coverage term anyway. Service insurance can be an expensive gamble. Knock on wood, I've NEVER had to use any that I bought in the past, plus Samsung does have a really good reliability record with their products. I'll be back with my first impressions of the 40b630 after Christmas. It's a gift for my wife!

I was at Best Buy for a special event, and there was a Samsung rep there. He told me the A950 is still there flagship model. The differences in the two are back lit vs. edge lit LED's that why the b8000 is so slim. While the b8000 has a faster refresh rate (240 to 120) the a950 has dynamic contrast where the set is constantly scanning to give better blacks. Oh, and I think there's one more HDMI port on the a950 than the b8000 if I remember correctly. I did ask the rep if there was a 9000 series coming out. He said there is one in the works, but wouldn't say when. I'm thinking late fall in time for Christmas, or next year in the spring, but that's a guess. If anyone knows a exact release date for the 9000 series please post. I'm leaning toward the a950 for a few reasons better blacks because of the dynamic contrast scanning, and on the b8000 I did notice while watching at Best Buy the set did bleed light from the edges in letterbox. (The black bars weren't completely black. Kinda bugged me.). $4000 vs $3600 for the a950 plus three yrs. interest free at Best Buy this week. I may pick one up, unless Amazon has a better deal going.

Laurence,I've been doing a lot of research on these various Sony models (S,V,W, etc) and it appears that the S models do not have 120 hz refresh - only 60 hz - may be reason why they are the least expensive of all the models. Also, this 24p compatibility apparently only functions with Blu Ray players! Interesting.jm

I purchased a Sony 40" 1080p 60hz & after a month returned it. Horrible picture.I purchased the 40A550 Samsung 1080p 60hz & was better but, the picture looked faded.I returned it & ordered the 40A650 through Amazon & what an incredible unit. The best picture of any TV that I have found. This is an amazing television. Absolutely has an amazing picture regardless of what you are watching. Amazon's "white glove" delivery is great, too. They make an appointment to deliver, un-box the unit & make sure there is no damage & the unit works before they leave.We are totally happy with the 40A650 Samsung. A huge difference between the 550 & 650 units due to going from 60hz to 120hz.Hope my experience helps. I purchased a Sony 40" 1080p 60hz & after a month returned it.

There's a promotion going for the LN46B750. Amazon is currently selling it for $1,999.99. Input coupon code, "SAMTV300" and it drops to $1,699.99. I'm pissed because yesterday I picked up an LN46A860 from Crutchfield for $1,579.99 with 1% FW cashback. It already shipped, bleh.Specs wise, seems like everything is the same except that the LN46B750 introduces 240Hz motion and Internet@TV (Yahoo!, YouTube, Flickr, etc.). Also, the LN46B750 has a charcoal ToC while the LN46A860 has a dark blue one. Moreover, I haven't come across a review that details the performance of the 240Hz motion.

I got this same tv for 596.00 at SAMs club. What is the actual price of this tv because I want another one

BTW...yesterday I was in BB and Sony has just released a 32" XBR9 1080p with 120hz Motionflow technology... and it is up on the Sony Style website.. so much for what the salesman tell you that Sony is not going to produce..But compared to the Sony 32" 1080p 60 hz.. I thought the higher priced model with 120hz looked grainy to me. I really didn't see the $200 difference in the (retail price). Perhaps on Blu Ray disc viewing there is a difference.. GLTA

I had a D40 before the D60, the D60 is MUCH better, just my personal thoughts 1-Dust, if you live in a dusty environment is a BIG ONE 2-Active D-light, Say good bye to underexposed photos, the camera produces very consistent results, not so with the D40 3-Expeed produced lower noise at higher ISO 4-THE VR Lens is SOOO much worth it, my pictures are always sharp I considered the D80, but... 1-No Active D-light "a big one" 2-more focus points yes, but you can do anything with 3 if you use them well 3-the D80 has a motor, but Nikon will be updating most of this primes to AFS this year, I tried the camera motor its slowwww 4-I was planing to get the D80+50mm 1.4 lens for low light, got the sigma 30mm 1.4 its a much better lens to keep on the camera IMHO 5-Expeed processing on the D60 seems to produce more saturated/vivid pictures vs.. D80 I shoot RAW/convert with capture NX, tried all the options, capture NX is slow and ugly, but it gives you the BEST picture period.

I have yet to buy one and think I have a couple days left to do so. I did buy one on the last TV I had and never had to use it, so it was money thrown down the drain in my opinion. That particular Television (Sony) is over 6 years old and still works like a champ. Its really up to the buyer. It is a nice thing to have in case something does happen, but in my opinion if this HDTV doesnt last me at least 3 years without any issues I wont be buying any more Samsung models. Good luck with your decision and I think you are going to like the LN32A450.

I purchased the Samsung LN52A860S2F a couple of days ago and I was told by the merchant that these tv has a better picture quality then its predacessor, but I can't find that fact anywhere. I wonder if I got tricked in to paying $200 bucks more for nothing.

You did not note the complete first model number. I'm assuming you mean the Sony KDL-40S5100. This is the same as the KDL-40SL150. Only difference is that the second number is unique to Costco (and perhaps, other warehouse stores like BJ's and Sam's if they carry it).
