Spectacular picture

This TV is the perfect size for our kitchen. We love the clear, bright HD picure. It's great for watching basketball while we fix dinner.

The Sharp Aquos 19" HDTV

Setup was fairly easy. We use it in the kitchen. You must rotate the stand to rotate the TV ... a slight disadvantage in this environment. The picture is fine, but the sound is strangely inadequate. We have to keep it a the max setting all the time.

Sound fair, Picture good

The picture quality is great on HD, but the sound is only fair. The audio comes out of small speakers pointed down out the bottom. The result is a "tin" sound. The volume has to be turned up fairly loud to hear it. The only audio out is via optical cable, so to hook it up to an external speaker would require an AV receiver. I don't want to do this since I bought the TV for the kitchen and I want to minimize the space. So everything is a tradeoff. I got a reasonbly decent picture and compromised on sound and got an HDTV that doesn't take much space at all.

The small kitchen remote is neat the way it fits in the small indentation of the base. Its very convenient for turning it on and off and volume controls. You can also channel up and down, but that is a tedious way to find your channel. For that they have the regular remote which we leave on the table. Two remotes is nice. The full size remote allows you to program up to four favorite channels--also a nice feature.

One last feature on the picture. The full size remote allows you to cycle through 4 preset AV modes such as movie, game, user defined, and dynamic. While this is nice, I haven't found one setting that seems to be best for all my viewing. Some shows are too dark on one setting, so I have to change it to another, then change it back for another show.

I wanted a 19" HDTV capable of receiving up to 1080i. This will compress the signal to 760, but at least it can handle it. This and a Toshiba model were the only ones I found that I thought could do it.

Poor Choice

Buying this TV was a nightmare! I ordered this TV and the vendor (not amazon.com) that sold it to me sent me a DIFFERENT TV! Hoping I would be stupid enough not to notice! I reviewed the other TV he sent me and after alot of thought decided to keep it (was running out of time to get a TV for my parents for Xmas) and when we opened it and turned it on, the volume was defective! I returned it to the vendor and he said I would get credit minus shipping and restocking! I told him it was defective and he said it was not! I told him to plug it in himself and see! I am sure he knew it was and bought it at a discount and then tryed to sell it to me hoping I would not notice! WHAT A CROOK! I was lucky that amazon.com credit card did take care of the shipping and restocking for me, but I told Amazon.com that the vendor that sold it to me was a crook!!!! I think the Sharp Aquos is a good TV, but I never got to see it! So beware of what you actually get vs what you order!

Very nice picture

When our daughter moved in with a friend, she didn't have room to take this TV with her. We borrowed it for our master bedroom and couldn't be happier with it. The sound and picture are very good. When she's ready to take it back, we'll definitely order our own!

Excellent 32" 720p LCD HDTV

I bought this item as a store demo for use in our master bedroom. It seemed okay with some slight wear, but it was the right choice. With a DVR from our cable company, the picture quality is outstanding, with at least good sound quality. It does take a little while to turn on and to change functions, such as between inputs, but it's not a big deal. With plenty of analogue inputs, and 2 HDMI inputs, it should be versatile enough for most needs, including a high-def source such as satellite TV or high-def cable, and of course a home theater system with an upscaling DVD player. Sharp has an excellent reputation for high-quality products with low rate of repair needs, so I would recommend this TV to anyone looking for a really fine quality 720p 32" LCD HDTV. The remote control is also very user-friendly.

Early exit soon after warranty expired

Bought an LC-37D43U from Sears in June of 2007, impressed by competitive price and picture quality in the display room. First purchase of large flat-screen TV.
Brought TV home and set it up, TV worked fine. Used in home environment, not abused or used extensively, half-hour to an hour some evenings, kids cartoons on Saturday morning, also hooked up to DVD player. Not a heavy TV-watching household.
Forward eighteen months to January 2009, TV is playing daughter's DVD and goes black, completely inoperative. Take it to Sharp authorized service center, diagnosis is fried Main Board, [...] parts and labor to fix.
Called Sharp.usa Aquos Advantage service to see if they would comp the new board, cost $280, I felt main component should have been more robust, eighteen months to failure is pretty short in my opinion.
No deal. No sympathy for out-of-warranty problems. Will consider more upscale brand for next purchase, will also consider extended warranty, these electronics are looking pretty fragile. Sharp Aquos LC37D43U 37-Inch 720p LCD HDTV

LOVE THIS TV

I bought this tv through Amazon last December. The first one that arrived worked fine for a couple of weeks, but then the HDMI inputs just stopped working. I called Amazon and they immediatley sent out a replacment. The replacement has been working perfecly ever since then. The HD channels are beautiful on this tv, and now I rarely watch standard def tv, even though it looks pretty good for SD. The sound on this tv is great until it reaches the low base sounds, where it makes a bit of a rumblimg noise. I eventually intend to get additional speakers for when I watch movies where the sound gets basey. Any other issues you may come across can usually be fixed by doing general adjustments. Out of all the tv's I've bought (RCA, Sony, Samsung, Philips, Magnavox), Sharp is my favorite. This was my 3rd Sharp purchase, and I am still in love with them all.( I finally let go of my big Sharp 27" tube tv, which still had a beautiful picture, but was just too bulky and a pain whenever I moved!)
I highly recomend this tv, although I would think you could find it for a better price.

100% Satisfied...

I bought this television five months ago, and could not be happier. My buddy bought a 41 inch 1080p LG at the same time, and i can not see one single bit of difference in picture quality between the two. Xbox 360 looks every bit as good in 1080i on my tv as PS3 does in 1080p on his, same with hd cable tv and blu ray. All in all, this is the largest size 720p set you can buy with no difference in picture, and i swear to you that there is absolutely NO difference. I love this tv, i dont quite understand the opc setting, as it dims and brightens the picture according to darkness, but is sort of annoying so i leave it off, and the only other problem is the cord falls out when you move the television, but how often do you do that. I now swear by sharp, and i had previously had a very strong loyalty to samsung. Another buddy is a sony guy, and he is planning on a sharp next time around, even though he had just purchased a 1080p sony. Out of the box, it is so bright it hurt my eyes, which is good...which is good. The color and blacks are amazing. Dont hesitate for a second to buy this set, you will not be sorry.

w00t!!!

I LOVE my new tv. I got it because it fit in my space good and I am amazed at how good it looks and sounds. I would highly recommend this tv. I think for a TV under 40" you don't really need the 1080 dpi. I did a lot of research and this is teh one I got it is sweet!

Picture is grainy from DVD's + Sharp Warranty consists of threats

The good points of this TV are: 1. being able to buy it through Amazon, 2. good owners manual.

Unfortunately the bad points are:
1. The picture from DVD is very grainy. It is an extremely poor picture. Please read the latest issue of Consumer Reports: you will find the Auqos ranked near the bottom in every screen size (I wish I had that issue several months ago).
2. The power button has to be hit several times to turn the unit on.
3. The volume from one of the HDMI connections is very low.
4. When contacting Sharp Warranty for points 2&3, they "threatened" numerous times that I would be charged if the tech could not find an issue. The threat of being charged came up so many times & also very rudely, that it came across this threat was a tactic to avoid warranty work.

I suggest your read the latest issue of C.R. before considering this TV.

Two TVs ordered, Two TVs arrived damanged

Honestly I don't know if this is a result of poor quality on Sharp's part or poor shipping process on UPS's part or poor packaging on J&R's part.

However, I have ordered two of these TV's and both arrived damaged. The first one would not power on. The green power light just kept flashing. So I returned it and ordered another. The second one came with dark spots on the screen that will not go away. It's not a smudge it's damage to the LCD screen itself.

I will not buy another one nor will I buy another Samsung TV ever again.

This is a very nice 37 inch HDTV, and it fits my entertainment center

Positives: We are very limited in the size of a high def tv because our entertainment center has a limited width. The Sharp LC37D44U was the only 37-inch set that we found that would fit, and it touches the sides of the cabinet on both sides. There really aren't many 37 inch sets to choose from....lots of 32 inch, 40 inch, and 42 inch, but not many 37 inch. The tv set arrived in perfect condition, it set up easily and quickly, and the picture quality is great. I use a surround sound system, so I can't really comment on the TV sound. I just turn it off.

Negatives:
I'm not very happy with the instructions that came with it....just one big sheet of paper, printed on both sides, that folds and folds and folds. I would much prefer a booklet. Also, because I have several audio and video components there are not quite enough input/output terminals. But with a little ingenuity you can get everything connected.

I would recommend it based on picture quality and ease of setup.

good tv for the price

The picture is good and the sound is good. I wish the controls would let me customize it some more and if this was my primary TV, I would need it to be 1080p, but for the price, it is a good deal and a nice unit.

Great TV, great price, perfect size for us

We wanted a flat screen HDTV to fit in our armoire. It was either this set or a high end 32". We went with size (this 37") over higher quality. My feeling was that since this would be our first HDTV, it was going to be an upgrade no matter what. And I'm really happy with the purchase. I can't complain at all - seems like a great set to me. I think the hi-def is really impressive - it's crisp and the colors look vibrant and natural to me both on HD broadcasts and blu-ray. Most of the stuff we watch is 1080i which looks great and seems to be a lot better than the 720p stuff (thought I read somewhere that 1080i didn't look so good on this set but it looks great to me). My only gripe is there's no headphone jack but if you've got a receiver, that won't be an issue for you.
