Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I picked up this television almost two weeks ago. After tweaking the color and contrast settings, the picture quality is phenomenal. Fortunately my set does not suffer from the banding issues that its larger brethren (42"/46"/52") suffered. Overall it's a great tv. Now for a few minor negatives. There is only on RF input (coaxial cable) for the ATSC over the air antenna (OTA), QAM, and analog cable. In previous models there were separate inputs for each. Therefore, you could receive OTA programming, analog cable, as well as any unscrambled digital cable channels that your cable company provides. For most this is not a problem, but I like redundancy , and would prefer to be able to receive all three. With this set you can either have an OTA antenna or cable, not both. The other negative would be the lack of digital inputs. This model has only 2 HDMI inputs. Its predecessor, the 37D90U had a DVI input and 2 HDMI inputs. For most this is not an issue, but I have a media center PC that I hook up to the tv as well as other digital devices such as an upconverting DVD player. Aside from these two minor issues, this television really is an excellent buy. I would however recommend that you but it locally (sorry Amazon) and have the store take it out of the box, turn it on, and have them either hook up a dvd player with a color calibration DVD or tune it to a channel with a light colored background to make sure it has neither dead nor stuck pixels nor any visible bands. Believe me, you do not want to suffer through having to return a large tv because there are banding issues. For more on what banding is, google the lc-46d62u model on the AVS forum and read all of the horror stories that many have dealt with. I would highly recommend this television, but everyone has different needs and you should always do a thorough investigation of what set would best suit your situation. The AVS forum is a good place to explore this. Best wishes on your purchases. Larry.

I’m glad to hear you’re so satisfied with this Sharp set. This unit is just about the perfect size for my bedroom, which is the last of my TVs to be upgraded to HD. I’ve been looking into the Sharp brand because a coworker of mine at Dish just raves about them, and now that I’ve got the Hopper and it gives me DVR capability and high-definition in every room, it seems like a waste to have this old 480p box in one of them. I’ve gotten so spoiled with the added clarity I don’t even like watching television in there anymore, which is a shame because I love lying in bed and watching TV after a long day. It’ll be nice to enjoy that again.
