    What is the model number of your tv set? I ask because the price seems a little high. For that price you could get a Pioneer 42" or Panasonic 50" which are both better plasma sets.

    Did you properly match your source? What you need is HD Cable/Satellight service not just standard and/or digital service.

    Also Component Video and HDMI/DVI are the best connecions available. Make sure as many as your components use them as possible. HDMI is better than Compoenent Video for your type of display.

    It doesn't matter what brand of cable you use really. Although I recommend Acoustic Research cables.

    there running into the tv on av in cables...my xbox is using one of the component port range.and my xbox 360 looks amazing on the tv...the tv has hdmi's inputs but my satelite box thingy(decoder)
    has no hdmi outputs,just standard av outputs,but the company is "sky" and in 2 years there signal will be running at 720p

    I had the same problem with all of the Samsung Plasmas I have bought.Fuzzyness totally sucks.I decided to go with the 60" Sony SXRD for my Bedroom instead.Much better in clarity and quality.
