Product Description
Samsung is a leader in LCD TV and computer displays. The LNR-1550 does both. With a built-in TV tuner and stereo speakers, this TV fits into the tightest spaces. It all starts with picture quality, and these sets boast improved contrast, brightness and off-angle viewing. Add to that the flexibility of a PC input, NTSC stereo TV tuner, side speakers, and a unique base that doubles as a wall mount and you've got both performance and value. Samsung LNR-1550 is designed for you - for virtually all intents and purposes.

Amazon.com Product Description
The 15-inch Samsung LN-R1550 is a great multi-tasker for the bedroom or home offices, offering the ability to watch enhanced definition television as well as use it as a PC monitor. The dual purpose pedestal stand can also be used as an articulating wall mount when itÕs folded back. Additionally, the stand can be removed for wall-mounting via optional VESA compatible hardware. Designated as an EDTV, the LN-R1550 displays signals in 480-line progressive (480p) mode, and can also accept 480p signals from video sources such as progressive-scan DVD players. While an EDTV doesn't have enough pixels for a true high-definition resolution, the difference is surprisingly small.

This set has a 1024 x 768-pixel resolution, 4:3 standard aspect ratio, 25ms (millisecond) response time, 450 cd/m2 brightness rating, and 400:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) It also offers 150-degree horizontal and 120-degree vertical viewing angles.

It comes with a built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner (MTS/SAP) for viewing standard broadcast and cable stations. The digital comb filter minimizes edge image artifacts while improving transition detail. Other features include a variable sleep timer, four picture modes, closed caption decoder, V-Chip parental controls, and multilingual on-screen displays (English, Spanish, Portuguese and French). This set is also Energy Star compliant, requiring up to 25 percent less energy than other comparable TVs.

The built-in side-mounted speakers provide 2 watts of power per channel (for 4 watts total), and this set provides five sound modes (Standard, Music, Speech, Movie, and Custom) that allow you to tailor the audio to a specific program. It includes the following audio and video connection options:

• Composite (RCA audio/video): 1 input
• S-Video: 1 input
• Component (Y/Pb/Pr): 1 input
• PC VGA: 1 input
• PC audio: 1 input
• RF: 1 input
• Headphone: 1
