Samsung HLR5667W 56-Inch DLP HD TV
LOUD fan noise?
Updated Review.     HD looks awesome on the set. I did not know that the standard \\"broadcast\\" channels (ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox) on HD can come through via an antenna  - without cable or sat - with perfect reception; the channel is either perfect or it doesn't come in at all. Very cool. In my case,  all I did was hook up an extra coaxial cable to the antenna-out and all those HD channels come in perfectly.  Also, for you novices, the HD channels come in via other channel numbers (so a your CBS channel 2 may be channel 60 in HD - look on the web for listings).    Anyway, as I said in the first version of this review, the thing about the TV that STILL drives me crazy that no one else has complained about is the noise the fan makes in the TV. I gotta tell you, that constant  \\"humming\\" drives me nuts - I can hear it very clearly whenever the sound gets low. And it's coming from the fan vent cover in the back. Maybe I have a defect or something, or maybe I just have very sensitive ears, but my 5-year old 42\\" Sony projection TV makes not a hint of noise. Doesn't this bug anybody else?     BTW, I switched from Dish to Comcast because Dish requires a $300 up-front payment to get an HD tuner with a DVR (plus a monthly fee). Comcast doesn't charge the upfront cost. I can't tell a great deal of difference between the cable and satellite, although some channels look better than others. Also, being in Los Angeles, my old Dish Network gave me East coast time feeds on most basic cable channels whereas Comcast is on a West coast feed, so now my favorite shows start three hours later!    As for the TV, I think I'm going to send it back and get a Sony.
