Excellent quality TV

The picture of the Aquos from Sharp makes for a well defined picture with a nice viewing angle. The control settings on the TV allow for a wide range of options. Picture adjustment is first class, with audio configuration having a moderate number of options available. The different viewing modes allow for wide screen content to be viewed without side empty black space on the screen. The PC connectivity with DVI to HDMI is excellent and is easily configured. Built in speakers have a little trouble with bass sound that will cause a slight rattling but provide very nice HD sound. Gaming isn't a problem on this TV with the PS3 or XBOX 360. Finally the built in surround sound provides for an incredible viewing experience with movies with any home speaker system.

Exactly what I was looking for.

I needed a 32" to fit into my entertainment center, with top-of-the-line picture quality, HDMI-in ports, and useful options with intuitive controls. I also wanted name-brand reliability.
The Sharp LC32D62U fit the bill perfectly. It has everything the standard user and many technophiles could need, and without too many of the extra useless gimmicky options that only serve to make your life difficult. I'm very pleased!

Great TV overall, weak sound and connectivity

I have had this TV for over a year now. Never had a problem. The picture is great and HD over antenna is amazing.
The Bad:
- not very customizable. the menu options are very limited for such a fine TV.
- You will not be able to connect a PC to it. you have to buy a converter, which costs about $200.
- the speakers are below average. you may need to buy a set of external speakers.

If these minor things dont matter to you, dont look any further. best picture out there.

Amazing

I will preface by saying that I'm not the pickiest person when it comes to TV. That said, this one blew me away. I decided to get a new TV only because my 15-year-old Sony Triniton bit the dust in my last move. I was pretty fond of that old clunker, but now I'm over my grief. The picture quality of the Aquos is amazing, no dead pixels, and the order was processed very quickly.

This TV is "sharp" (pun intended)

I definitely recommend this TV to anyone looking to upgrade to 1080p in a small affordable package. I mainly use this to play xbox 360 games which look unbeleivably better in 1080p than 480fuzz. All this throught a component cable too; someone told me at circuit city that you couldn't get 1080p through component, but Microsoft's website said you could, and I am viewing xbox games in 1080p...so...it always pays to get a 2nd opinion. 5 inputs, with two hdmi, gives you a bunch of options, and for 800 bucks, this tv is a very good bargain. I will be in the market for a 52 aquos for the living room very soon. A Sony or Samsung will give you a nice picture too, but Sharp was cheaper, and as much as i love the 1080p pic versus the SD, i couldn't tell that any brand was superior to the other. So price and inputs were the big one for me. This tv is small; you'll want to be no more than 8 feet away, but it is perfect for a gaming tv or a bedroom tv. 1080i comcast cable is extremely bright and vivid over the 480i standard cable. What are you waiting for?? :)

Sharp satisfaction

read the reviews, did the research, took a chance and purchased through amazon and their affiliates. It was a wonderful experience. No hard sell for anything like you would find if you purchased from some of those other sites. About the only down side is the screen reflects a muted shine from a light that the prior TV (panasonic plasma)did not reflect.

so far very happy

I purchased the tv through amazon warehouse, i was a little skeptical abouting spending so much money for a refurb that i have not even seen but i decided to give it a try since it was for $1600. I was between this a samsung lnt5271 and xbr4, the sony was just to expensive and i was worried about the glare from the samsung so i decided to try the sharp even though i saw some many people complaining about banding issues. I have seen a little when it comes to the whites but it is something you really have to look for, the ps3 looks awsome and i cant really imagine a much clear picture. And the tv looks great the floating glass is a very nice touch. I recied the tv a little late it took close to 3 weeks getting it, i think it was a issue with the warehouse, but for the price i couldn complain, delivery people were great.

Somes cons,
very little banding but like i said you really have to look for it, i was not impressed with the sound at all, it is nothing like the sony i had but i have a bose system to do most of the movies and games, but for a tv that cost that much i really expected better. I can also see that if the tv was mounted and you did not have a month that is expandable it would be had to connet things since there is no side inputs. the last thing was the auto sizing of the pic, its not very good at switching on its own from hd channes to regular air most of the time you have to manually switch it back from strech to dot by dot, that can get kinda annoying.

Other then that the picture is really nice and i guess thats the most important part right? I also recomend using amazon so far there customer service seems to be great but then agian i have not had many issues so i guess we will see.

Defective out of box - lousy customer service

Bought the tv as a Circuit City close-out. Was defective when I brought it home. I assumed Sharp would replace it with new since it is 2 days old. They are insisting on a repair after a week wait. I had to call twice to get that info. Very disappointing customer service. Very disappointing experience with Aquos so far.

Sharp Aqous LC52D82U Excellent!

About one year ago I purchased the Sharp 52" LCD TV. I am very happy with this purchase. The picture has excellent sharpness and color, with no color banding as experienced with some of the earlier versions.

This TV has performed perfectly with no problems. A very nice feature of this TV is the automatic picture level control, which controls the level of brightness of the video under variable room lighting conditions, especially on a partly cloudy day, when the lighting constantly changes.

The audio is good if you do not use maximum bass setting, as setting bass level too high overdrives the built-in speakers at high audio levels. The audio is surprisingly good at normal settings with the bottom mounted internal speakers.

Don't be afraid to explore all the video settings to achieve the picture that will please you, as it takes some experimenting to get this right, but it's worth it.

I highly recommend this TV after using it for almost one year. This is my 3rd Sharp TV....all with excellent reliability.

Very satisfied with the TV

I am very happy with the product. it is easy to set up and once I hook it up with a blue ray player, I was amazed by the quality of the pictures.

I saw some other brands that are cheaper than sharp but you get a much better TV with sharp.

Great looks, grating sound

I just picked one of these sets up a few days ago at a club store after seeing its price just a couple hundred over the LC-46D65U I've had my eye on for the last year or so. The screen is good. No dead pixels, no blurring issues that I can see, and best of all, no perceptible input lag with my xbox. (this is the feature of the Aquos sets that was my primary interest in them)

Out of the box, the image quality was quite good but in need of tuning. The colors are not oversaturated as with many televisions. The menus are intuitive and easy to use so it took just a few minutes to adjust the temperature to what looks right to me. However, after 3-4 attempts, I still haven't struck the right balance with the gamma, contrast, and brightness. I am a little bit of a nut over these, however, so I wouldn't consider it a fault of the set. Overall, I would say the image quality is excellent.

Sound quality is terrible. I mean, it is embarrassingly bad. I have never heard a TV with worse speakers. And the TV that this is replacing is an Olevia that couldn't play in stereo without major distortion. This set is worse than that. The sound is tinny and shrill. It is about as high in fidelity as the cheap transducer in a laptop computer. There are menu options to adjust the bass and treble up and down, but even with treble cut as far as it'll go and bass set to the max, there is little to no change in the atrocious noise noise this thing puts out. The best I can guess is that the expectation by Sharp's marketing and engineers is that this set was never meant to play its own sound. Graciously, there are audio out jacks on the TV. If you have a home theater set, this is a non-issue. If you don't, be sure to budget in a decent set of powered speakers. The built in audio is simply unusable.

The input/output jacks are plentiful. I count 5 HDMI's, 2 YPbPr's, 2 RCA's, a VGA dsub, an s-video, and a serial port, as well as a stereo 1/8" jack, and as I meantioned, it has the ever-so-necessary audio output jacks, both in RCA and digital form factors. One HDMI port, one RCA input, and a USB service terminal are situated on a side panel, keeping them easily accessible for temporarily installed devices. The rest of the jacks are on the back of the unit, off to one side, with the power jack on the opposite side. It would have been nice to have these closer together and nearer to the center of the chassis. The included power cord is a measly 4 feet. I had to reorganize my runs around my entertainment center to accommodate this. It's not a major issue but it is needlessly annoying. If you don't have a plug immediately behind the set, you're going to need an extension cord.

The remote is neither the best nor the worst I've used. It's an awkward shape and I don't like the positioning of the channel and volume buttons but the buttons have a nice feel and the controls are instant and responsive.

All in all, I would say that it is a good set. The case looks good, the picture is crisp, clear, and fluid, and it's loaded with everything necessary to be the centerpiece of a solid home theater system. The minimal screen lag is great for gamers. The terrible treatment they've given the audio system precludes this set from being a standalone piece, however, and if your interest is in getting the most TV for your money, remember that this is not complete out-of-the box, and the savings it offers over comparable quality displays may well be eaten up in the purchase of a listenable audio rig.

Great Picture and overall value

I bought this TV from local club store last week. I believe the club stores are the only place to find this particular model number, but from the research I did online, it is identical to the 52E77U.

Setting up the TV was extremely easy. First you have to attach the stand, then just plug in the power cable and your inputs and turn it on. The first thing that you see when you turn it on is an initial basic setup menu. Once you go through the few questions, then you are all set. I did spend a little time tweaking the settings as you would have to do with pretty much any TV you buy. I found a site that had some users posting their settings and I tried a few of those. I then made a few more adjustments and I found what I feel is the perfect setting combination. The picture quality is truly amazing, very vivid and clear, and everything in HD is just phenomenal.

As far as sound quality, I have not listened to the speakers at all as I am using a seperate receiver for the sound. I would not expect much in the way of quality as these types of TV's are built for picture quality, not sound, and really, I'd be fine if they did not even have speakers.

I cannot find a single thing to be negative about with this set, except for one very odd quirk. With my setup, I have my cable and PS3 running to my ONKYO receiver, which then has one output to the TV. Whenever I first turned on the TV, I got a message about sound not being compatible. I had seen this mentioned on another site, and all I had to do was turn the TV's volume control down to 0, and I never get the message.

One final thought. While doing research on Sharp LCD TV's, there was some mention of banding issues. Everything I could find said this issue was resolved and limitted to some run of screens at one of the factories. I have not noticed any flaws of any sort with my picture. I highly recommend this TV, at least, for the price I paid for it, you get more value than comparable Samsung, Sony, etc. models.

Amazing quality and perfect size

I bought this unit because I wanted a television that would give me a home theater experience without converting my basement family room into a media room. It's the perfect size for that...large enough to view movies and play video games with astonishing definition and theater presence without overwhelming the room. I'm amazed myself I'm saying a 65 inch television doesn't dominate the room but that's how far we've come in the last 10 years regarding what we expect from a television experience. I don't know anything about refresh rates or response times...I have a plasma..a 47 inch in our bedroom and the picture quality is no different. The only complaint I have regarding the change from a plasma to an LCD is that at angles to the viewing screen, some definition is lost with the LCD. Other than that, I am completely satisfied.

INCREDIBLE PICTURE !


I recently purchased this television for my restaurant and have recieved rave reviews from all of our patrons. The picture quality is the very best for a 65 inch LCD. This Sharp Aquos television deserves a solid 5 star rating. Great for watching sports!

Review of purchase of Sharp TV from CSBUS via Amazon.com

I purchased a Sharp 65" LCD TV via Amazon.com from the seller CSBUS in December 2009. The TV performs well and I would recommend it to others who want a TV this size and price. However I have problems with the seller. When the TV was delivered, I realized that it was not new as promised and that it had a couple of cosmetic defects. I called the seller CSBUS and they told me that the TV was purchased as part of a bulk buy by a large organization, but it was never actually used. However, in the process, the base was damaged. They offered to find a replacement base and send it to me, but they never did. When I asked why the warranty page in the manual had a stamp on it that said the warranty wasn't valid, they told me not to worry about it, that the warranty was valid. I admit that I got very busy during the holidays and didn't follow up to get the warranty issue resolved. Now I am asking Amazon.com to discuss this on my behalf with the seller CSBUS and make good on the warranty that comes with new Sharp TVs, which I thought I was buying.

Thank You,

What a great TV!

I got a great deal on this TV! I was hoping it would go on sale again here on Amazon but it has been unavailable for awhile now, but I happened to be shopping over the weekend, and saw this TV as a "Open Box Deal" that had been a floor model.
I paid $1,599 for it, and bought a extra 3 year warranty for $400.
I would be currious if anyone else got it any cheaper that that! thats about the same price I bought my 46" LCD in my bedroom awhile back.

I have not seen any banding issues or dead pixels, and I am using settings that someone posted on AVS forum, and it looks allot better than I was able to get it.
If anyone is interested I can post those settings here.
