Is Samsung LC-S4695D worth buying for $1400 ?

[Zombie]

I have an offer to buy one at employee price but I am unable to find any detailed specs. I also can't find any stores that carry that model.

So is it worth it? I think its a good deal since amazon is selling it for $2k+

It's an older model but I liked the one that I looked at when I was in the market a year or so ago. It didn't seem to suffer the banding problems that plagued Sharp's stuff nor the backlight leakage problems that the Sonys had. $1400 is a decent price.

I assume you mean LN-S4695D. I just sent one back for a LN-T4665F. The 95 was a good set but I felt the colors were a little washed out and the blacks could have been deeper. It had come clouding as well. I'm really picky though.

That's the one I had. I paid nearly $800 more than what you can get it for.

You might want to look at the new LNT line. If you have a frys around you they somtimes have good sales on them. The cheapest I saw the lnt-4061f was for 17xx and the lnt-466x at 2k. but watch out for the hdmi issues on the lnt series.
