Product Description
Enjoy better pictures with the Samsung's HL-T6187 DLP HDTV. The piano black bezel is just 0.6-inch wide so the slim depth lets it fit where others won't. The energy-efficient 61-inch screen features a powerful, long-lasting LED light engine that turns on almost instantly. Full HD 1080p resolution and Samsung Cinema Smooth technology deliver a wide range of brilliant colors, with bright images and crisp definition. The blackest blacks, brightest whites and nuanced tones are yours with a 10000:1 dynamic-contrast ratio. Hidden speakers deliver clear, robust SRS TruSurround XT sound. The 120Hz switching speed and Game Mode keep gamers marveling at the lifelike action. A wide range of audio, video and HDMI inputs allow digital connectivity to Cable/Satellite boxes, Blu-ray players, AV receivers and more. Please note: Samsung recently changed the suffix on this TV from HLT-6187X-XAA to HLT-6187SAX. The change was not technical in nature and there is no difference other than the suffix in the model number.

Samsung's LED color and light engine
The revolutionary new LED system available on Samsung DLP HDTVs offers better color, and energy efficiency.
LED (Light Emitting Diode) for modern color realization
Samsung's new LED light engine replaces the arc lamp & color wheel design of previous DLP HDTVs, and realizes beautiful color. LED will last the life of the TV. Samsung LED DLP TVs eliminate the need to replace the consumable lamps every few years, and thus have less impact on the environment and on one's wallet. Samsung's LED light engine makes possible an Ultra-Wide Color Gamut that exceeds the NTSC defined color space spec for richer color than you've seen before on TV. Samsung DLP HDTVs with an LED engine are more energy efficient than similar sized flat panel displays, and the lack of a moving color whell in the design means they perform with less noise than any previous DLP HDTV design.

Samsung Cinema Smooth light engine
Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine create's images with a smoother, more film-like appearance.
Cinema Smooth Light Engine
Samsung is the worldwide leader in creating light engines that harness DLP HDTV technology from Texas Instruments. Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine brings together the right optics, electronic circuitry and replaceable light source to create a brilliant picture that's more lifelike and much closer to film. Now in its sixth year of evolution, Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine delivers crisp, 1080p High Definition resolution with high contrast and brightness, defined edges and sharp detail.

Next Generation DLP Chips from Texas Instruments
Samsung employs a Texas Instruments DLP chip that is comprised of millions of microscopic mirrors. The DLP chip is faster than any other HDTV technology, with the mirrors switching on & off 15,000 times a second to deliver a razor-sharp picture for fast moving images. When combined with Samsung's new Cinema Smooth light engine, the result is a crisp, bright picture with deep, rich colors that's closer to film.

Samsung Cinema Smooth light engine
SRS TruSurround offers a surround sound experience from only two speakers.
SRS TruSurround Samsung HDTVs are equipped with the best that technology can offer in sound quality. Even when viewing regular broadcasts, Samsung's two speaker surround sound makes you feel as if the theater has been brought to your living room.

1 out of 5 stars Beware of Samsung - awful customer service   June 2, 2009
I purchased my HLT6187 in mid 2008. A few weeks ago, the sound and picture disappeared. Samsung sent a contracted repair servce twice to replace the LED engine, BOTH times it blew again within 24 hours and I called them back (should mention here that their hold times are ridiculous, and twice when I was transferred to their 'executive customer care' line, the phone rang for up to 10 mintes non-stop before I hung up and dialed again). Samsung then contacted the service people, determined that it was not reparable, and offered an exchange. I was offered a 52" LCD that sells for $300 less than my 6187 did, as Samsung does not make DLP TVs any longer and they were taking unit depreciation into account. Quite frankly, their accounting issues should not be my concern, as their TV stopped working *under warranty*. I said I would not accept their exchange, as I purchased furniture and arranged a room around a 61" screen. I told the rep on their 'executive' help line that I would consider (begrudgingly) accepting a 55" LCD unit, she said she would relate that to the exchange department. They came back with the snarky reply that sure, they would exchange for a 55" unit, for a $750 fee. I was pretty ticked off. I said I wanted a refund then, and the rep said they would begin processing it, but it would take up to 3 weeks to send someone to take back the television.
In short, my advice is to AVOID SAMSUNG as their customer service is the worst I have experienced with a large company. I will never buy another Samsung product again.



5 out of 5 stars Very happy with Samsung DLP 61 inch   April 28, 2009
My review will be very objective since I've had this model since Nov '07. I've had no problems at all with the colors or lamp burning out. I use my tv almost everyday so it gets a good work out. This tv is especially great for Blu-Rays they look fabulous. I own the Sony BDP-S350,S300 models and they play without any problems. I also have a Denon AVR788 reciever because as others have said the sound on the tv speakers is not very good especially for a 10 x 18 room. HD Channels also look great like PBS. Eventually i will probably upgrade to the 72 inch but this baby should still last me a few more years. I know I will have to get the lamp replaced also but so far i've been very lucky.

I would definitley recommend a Samsung tv to anybody ouy there!!



5 out of 5 stars Mine "bit the dust"   March 18, 2009
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I absolutely loved my 61" Samsung! Without a doubt, the best I have owned. However, all good things must end...Mine bit the dust after 10 months of use. First, we lost all red color...then something else went. The good thing about it is that it was still under warranty. We had the local Samsung warranty repair shop take a look at it and they found three defective parts, two of them were in stock. The 3rd pard needed to be ordered. After tree weeks without any communication, we finally found out that there was a backorder for the part we were waiting for. After 6 weeks, I finally called Samsung direct and got someone in the executive department and they were stunned that I had been without the TV for so long. Now, however, we have been informed that Samsung is no longer producing the DLP models and the shortage of parts was key. I have not heard this (discontuing the DLP) from any other source and was skeptical initially. But, because they are replacing the DLP with a highend 52" LCD, I am beginning to wonder.

Again, the 61" DLP was a beautiful TV with an abundance of positives. My only negative is that I didn't have it long enough. I sure hope all the other posters of the 61" have a long-life TV and that you don't need parts too soon.



5 out of 5 stars After 1 Year - Still LOVE this TV!!   March 5, 2009
Can't say enough good about this TV - Out of the box plugged in and the picture is perfect! After a year of living with it I would recommend a Sammy to anyone.
Both of my good friends bought $3000 LCD tv's and I think there is no comparison.
If you can find this model on clearence BUY IT! - or the A750 version that replaced this one should even be a bit better (hard to believe)



5 out of 5 stars Only one flaw - Optical audio out does not convert HDMI audio in   February 6, 2009
I love this TV. I have had it for about a year and a half, and have had zero problems with it. The picture is crystal clear, and the LED bulb is the way to go. No sound comes out of it, and it has an amazing setup of input/outputs. I won't go into detail because everyone else has already, and they are right. My only problem with this TV was something that I didn't run into until a year down the road, when I was setting up an audio system. It seems that on this model, the optical audio out does not convert the high definition aduio that is coming in from any of the HDMI ports. It will only convert an analog signal. This, to me, is pointless, but customer support told me that this was changed in the 2008 model, which would make the 2008 model 100% perfect, in my book. Still, it's not a very huge issue, and is only a problem because of my Xbox360, which will not split the signal like the PS3. Oh well. In all, this TV is absolutely amazing, and everyone who sees it says the same. If I had to, I would buy it again.
