As you'd expect from a range-topper, the 6-series Samsung is packed with sockets. Most impressive are the four HDMIs. Not only is this more than most, but they are also the latest, v1.3 version and there's the added convenience of one of them being side-mounted - ideal for use with HD camcorders or games consoles. Added to these you'll also find an optical output, PC, component and S-video inputs. Samsung's Anynet + teams up with matching Samsung components for comprehensive, single remote operation.
Finally, even when its switched off, the LE40A656 has a mesmerising design that's hard not to stare at!
