The truth is there is no true setting for this or any HD TV. I work in the retail industry and have done for 4 years for a prestige company who sell Hi-End Home Entertainment equipment.

My advise to all the customers whom buy a HD TV and ask whats the best setting is that to set it to what you see seems correct to you. Everybody's vision is different and what I may find good, someone may find not good, etc etc

The reason why you have read somewhere the setting of the Samsung Plasma should be set to a lower contrast ratio is more to stop the screen from suffering any screen burn.

I hope this information is helpful.
