Michael Cortez,
It might make more of a difference on a plasma than an LCD, particularly with static images. But running the higher contrast levels shouldn't damage the panel.
Could you clairfy which A650 you're referring to?

Are there any consequences or problems to setting the A650 series tvs to high contrast levels, let's say, 93?
