Hi,
I am new this forum. Though I have posted couple of times this is my first thread.
Planning to buy a 50" Plasma in 1-2 months time. Read quite a few formus and found the information to be very useful as compared to the misinformed, LCD/LED selling, rattling salemen. Ask them about Plasma and they stare at me as if I just landed from some forbidden ice-age planet!
Anyways, fairly made up up my mind; it's going to be LG PK550 or Samsung C550. Now I need some advice from all the good souls to weigh the pros and cons in terms of
1) PQ quality with SD and HD
2) Black levels
3) Buzzing
4) Reflection
5) Image retention
I watch a lot of TataSky and DVDs (subscribed to 700mm). A blu-ray player is coming soon (I hope). My room in dim-lit and the TV position does not face any window.
Read almost all availlable reviews on LG. Checked it out at Croma (Bandra) and eZone (Goregaon) last week. Looks great but what put me off was the bad reflection and greyish tinge to pictures. It could be due to the store lightling and wrong claibration. Also, (sadly) Samsung has not yet reached the stores.
So, before my first Plasma plunge I would like some real opinions from the members.
Btw, witnessed a salesman selling LCD to some not so informed customers. The LCD model he was trying to sell is, what I believe, last of the sets the store is wanting to get rid off desparately.

Samsung 37A550, Sony 32V550, Pioneer DV-420-K, other components... still searching.
