A:AnswerHi Bart! The width of the stand on the 55TU8000 comes to 40.6" at the widest part which should allow you to place on the existing furniture. The TV also features a VESA mounting pattern of 200mm x 200mm for compatibility with universal mounting solutions. ^Tim

A:AnswerHi LuLusMom, If that is too dark for you, try changing the picture settings to dynamic or natural. I usually change the AutoMotion plus settings to custom for Football, as it looks best to me, but to each their own. Part of the beauty of having a TV this advanced is you can dial it in just the way you like it. ^Scott
A:AnswerHi Yerbshaw, There are many audio out ports, whether it be through HDMI, Digital Optical, or even USB, but there is no headphone jack. If you have Bluetooth headphones you can connect that way however. ^Scott
A:AnswerHey LuLusMom - Samsung TVs use the smart platform Tizen. There would be no need to use a sperate streaming device . All you need to do is enter your user info into the apps that you use on the 55TU8000 and start steaming . ^Jason
A:AnswerHi LuLusMom! Additional applications and streaming content can be accessed by pressing the home button on the 55TU8000 remote. From the TV's Home screen, navigate to and select APPS, and then select the Search icon in the top-right corner. Next, enter the app you want to download and select it. You will see detailed information about the app. From here, select Install. You can browse the internet by pressing home on the remote and navigating to the Internet application. ^Tim
A:AnswerHi there! Nano is a type of a color filter technology, whereas LED is the lighting technology that LED TVs utilize. Our TU7000 and TU8000 utilize light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to backlight the display. Starting at our Q60T, Samsung utilizes QLED Technology, which is our Quantum Dot technology with 100% Color Volume. Over one billion shades of pure accurate color. With detail at any level of luminance, Quantum Dots are durable and scalable to deliver the same amazing picture across various models. ^Gina
