Refresh rate is how fast it redraws the screen. 60 is slow for quick action. 120 is good, 240 is probably tops a person would notice, 600 would be advertizing gimic?
Contrast ratings are some magic number that don't relate well from one manufaturer to the next (tey all lie about it....), but is the most noticable 'feature' I see on TV's. It affects how the color black is seen, and if you like sports one way is better, if you like movies in a dark room a different way is better. I'd suggest looking at various models in a store, to get a feel for that contrast rating - what _you_ like, this seemed to be the biggest differences in sets when we were looking, and their is no right singgle answer.... Personal prefference.
Plasma is really neat if you are a video junkie tended to be the high-dollar sets, but often they glare and reflect lighting in the room something awful, and probably are not as long-lasting. When first came out, Plasma was the top of the line, but LED/LCD has caught up for most part, you'll probably be happiest with a LED/LCD.
We bought Samsung but that's been 5 years ago, things change. At that time, Samsung was most pleasing to us on that contrast deal, we really like Sony at that time, but their shades of black (the contrast) wasn't quite the same.
Wherever we looked, the only really bad looking set was always Westinghouse, they looked washed out back then, terrible.
