A = AU Optronics.
C = Chi Mei.

I own a 2010 Samsung 46" set with a "C" LCD panel, and it does have a relatively narrow angle for the best black-level performance, but dead-on straight its black performance is fantastic. My other Samsung is a 32" set with (if I remember right) a Samsung panel. That set also has nice cut-off black level when viewed straight on, and nearly as good over reasonably wide angles as well.

By comparison, one LG set I briefly owned (a 32" set with the "good" IPS panel, 32LD450 if I remember right) had really mediocre black-level performance (only dark gray rather than true black when viewed straight on), but, yes, that mediocre black stayed the same at most angles.
