I have ordered the 60" 6400. I would appreciate any suggestions/comments on external speakers?

I have the 40" and it sounds good for the bedroom.... if you looking at having an ideal set of speakers that work in both 110v and 240v (incase you move overseas) I recommend the Sonos

I had struggled with getting the external speakers to work through the amplifier. Contacting Samsung for help was totally useless: the Customer Service representatives were clueless on what I was trying to achieve. Finally, out of frustration I told the rep that I most recently contacted that if I don't get the external speakers to work then I will return the TV set to the retailer. The rep then stayed with me: the TV set was turned on, Menu was selected, Sound was selected, Speaker was selected and at last External speaker was selected, IT WORKED after nearly two weeks of run-around with the Customer Service at Samsung!

Brooks I have Samsung external speakers and they have made a huge difference in sound quality and picking up sounds like footsteps you don't hear with the TV speaker. The Bluetooth wireless works as good as the old wire speakers.

Give us a price range. <<<very importantI'd start by getting the Onkyo TX-SR606 and then deciding how much you have left for speakers. Focus on a strong 3.1 set and if you have extra get the surrounds.

I got the 650 on Monday and the speaker sound is very good. I was impressed with how the sound seemed to surround you. I have since hooked it up to my home stereo but I don't think you'll be disappointed with the built in speakers.

The receiving sound is very good. IDK about the other way around as I have not yet installed an external speaker.

I've enjoyed mine for the video....superb! However, the 'theater sound' on it was not as advertised. I tried to return mine to Dell but they wanted a re-stocking fee. When I complained they sent me a cheap pair of speakers in a damaged box which promptly got donated to Goodwill. It was the last thing I ever ordered from Dell.

D. Lang-I just ordered one. I will review it in a few weeks Let me know if you have any other questions.I know what you mean about "open" quality. You and I seem to have similar tastes in speakers. I have some wonderful speakers already and I am looking forward to this Samsung.Jim

I'm looking at the Polk 50 soundbar now. I believe this is going to be the route I go with. Thanks for the input.

I also just bought it from Best Buy for the $799. I added some black friday Polk Audio 1/2 off speakers to the order to hit the $999 for 36 months too. I can't be happier.....well I will be when they get around to delivering it later this month.I clicked on this link because I was looking at both these models as well, as Vanns.com had them both for $999 and I was wondering if it was worth getting the other model over the 60C9.

Mine has very good sound. It does require external speakers. Maybe have the sound muted, or otherwise disabled in your settings.

Thank you very much. your suggestion is very helpful. I'm leaning towards the Samsung 50" that you mention, the PN50A450.

Hi, Justin. I would stick with an external speaker. The BassJump is a base-reinforcement speaker that compliments the laptop's build in speakers. It works OK, but I think a separate, full range (and wireless) speaker is the way to go for training situations, which I also do as a career consultant. BTW, I just got the Bose SoundLink Mini and it is an awesome bluetooth speaker. Not cheap, but great performance for a tiny portable speaker. Fills the room with sound. You might want to check it out for your training.

Yes definately, due to the slim design of all HDTV's the internal speakers are crap, so external speakers is highly recommended.

Don't use the monitor's speakers. It's an awesome monitor, but the built in sound is horrible. You need dedicated speakers

Personally I reccomend purchasing the 2 play 1 speakers, then the subwoofer. I hope this helps

Sound is pretty good. To me, it seems normal...not as good as having external speakers (which I do on my other TV), but it's adequate.

For about the first week I didn't have my external speakers hooked up, so I did watch several shows using the built in speakers of the LC60LE757. They're not that bad really. Decent sound, good enough to watch a show without sound being an issue, but we're not talking room filling "movie" quality for a screen this big. I normally have a pair of studio monitors (KRK V8's) connected, so I don't usually turn on the built in speakers.

No issues here either. I have a 29" Visio sound bar that looks good and fits nicely between the front legs of the quadropod" TV stand. The included Toslink cable hooked up well to the TV optical audio output. It sounds much better than the PN64H5000's internal speakers, really improving dialogue which was hard to understand before. For serious listening I kick in my 7.1 receiver but this is great for casual use.
