The Samsung UN55B6000 is last years model, so I wouldn't pick that one. So that leaves the KDL52EX700 and UN55C6300. Both of them would be amazing TVs. Here are the points that I would use to decide.

Samsung UN55C6300
Pros:
Ultra-thin (<1.2")
55" Screen
Cons:
Cost More
No Internet Features (ex. Netflix, Pandora, etc)

Sony KDL52EX700
Pros:
Cost Less
Internet Connectivity
Cons:
Smaller Screen
Not ultra-thin (2.5" Thick)

Then thinness of the TV isn't a huge factor, but it it really cool looking. People in our show room are always amazed by it.

The internet features are a nice bonus on the Sony. I love Netflix streaming. I find myself never watching cable anymore, just watching...

So it comes down to if you want Internet Features (Sony) or Ultra-thin and 3" More Screen (Samsung).

One final option: Samsung UN55C6500 (It cost few hundred more, but then you get ultra-thin, 55", and internet features)
