| This is our first LCD HDTV to replace our Sony rear-projection HDTV. We have it now for a month, and we are very happy with it.
Prior to placing the order, I visited a local electronic store comparing Sharp TV with other name brands. This particular model was not available in the showroom at the time. At the first, I was not totally impressed with Sharp's HDTV because it did not have as good black level and contrast comparing to Sony XBR series. After researching on the internet, I learned that this model has many of same features and use the same technologies employed by Sharp last year's Special Edition HDTV that costed around $5K range. I went ahead and placed the order. The new monitor arrived in good condition. The initial setup was quick and easy, simply follwing its wizard. The setup procedure picked up many analog and clear QAM channels off the cable. I particularly like its feature that allows me to surf both analog and digital channels without switching between the modes like other DVR machine does. I could also individually define which channel to skip. Its remote allows me to program my favorite channels as "quick keys". Very nice feature. Out of box color is vivid and vibrant, and the black level is deep just like other more expensive Sony XBRs. This TV comes with advanced video tuning capabilities. Besides the typical backlighting, contrast, brightness, sharpness and tint, I could fine-tune white balance, individual color channels. I found this TV only requires minor brightness adjustment to suit my viewing preferences. This TV "shines" when playing back Blu-Ray material such as Pirate of Caribbean with its built-in player. This TV has plenty of input/output connectors. Specifically, I like the fact it has an optical audio output to my home theater system. BTW, that is a must because the built-in speakers is very wimpy. For anyone who is thinking about buying a LCD HDTV, you will not regret with this one. |

| Very happy with recent purchase of the Sharp Aquos 52 inch HDTV. The quality of the picture is excellent. The biggest problem was getting the satellite hook up for HD, after that hurdle, it has really been enjoyable watching TV. Haven't tried the blu-ray player yet, but the satellite installer was impressed with it. This is our first HDTV so we are still exploring all the features. The shipping from Amazon was very quick. We were a bit nervous ordering the TV online without actually seeing it, but the delivery went well and we are happy with our new TV. We had been looking for almost a year before we made the purchase and we believe we made the right choice. |
Awesome TV |

| I have this model since a month and have found it exceptionally good. The colors are vivid and black is close to perfect. The built-in Blu-Ray player is a boon. Saves space and perfect when it is hung on a wall.
The TV can be swung left or right on the stand. That is neat. With Aquos brand, you can buy with confidence. After all, Sharp is a pioneer in LCD technology. The only problem i think is that when you insert the Blu Ray disk, it takes quite some time to read it and start the movie. |
