Conclusions
No video display is perfect, and the Samsung FP-T5884 is no exception. In particular, I'd like to see deeper blacks, and the video processing could be better. But neither of these issues interfered with the pleasure I had from the weeks I spent with this set, enjoying dozens of hours of pristine video from both disc and cable. Definitely recommended.
