HDTV & Televisions : Sharp Aquos LC-42D62U

I have had my Sharp for 2 weeks and really enjoy it alot.The HDTV channels I have are 1080i and they look great.The only thing I noticed was during the colts game which looked awesome was a little dot crawl on the closups.DVD's look very good on this and Im only using a upconvert player.To me its just about as good as a HD DVD.

ok just to clarify, i purchased the 46 inch version of this tv back in december 06. i really wanted the samsung, but got a good deal on this one, so i went with it. the main reason being i got a PS3 and needed an HDTV that can hang with the system. although it does 1080p, this TV produces some of the worst ghost images i've ever seen. i didn't really notice it at first, simply because this HD set looked so much better than the CRT it replaced, but after staring at it most nights, i can really see it now. do yourself a favor, get the sony bravia. i know it's expensive, but if you are gonna spend over $2000 for a TV, might as well get the top dog right?

My Sharp Aquos LC42D62U encountered an LCD panel problem in only it's 3rd year of use. I purchased the product from PC Richard. I also purchased an extended 3 year warranty from PC Richard. When I encountered the problem, I had already moved outside PC Richard's service area so they refunded my money. Had I purchased a warranty direct from Sharp, maybe they would have covered the problem. I was not given the option of purchasing the warranty direct from Sharp by PC Richard so Sharp is not willing to accept the cost of the PC Richard warranty to correct the problem. They are only offering pro-rated cost to replace the TV. My next TV will not be a Sharp. So I guess the message here is buy the extended warranty direct if you can, and the product and service is likely to be better from Samsung, Panasonic, Sony, etc. Hide Full Review

As with everything I spend alot of money on I do my homework! I had my mind set on a rear projection just for cost reasons but when I saw this Sharp in Best Buy the picture just blew thew the rear projections away and I never looked back! I use the high definetion box from Comcast with component cables so the high def. is AMAZING! My friends just love it! I live in an apartment so I didn't get the suround sound just because I couldn't hide the wires in the wall & I didn't want them running up the wall so I just use the sound from the TV itself witch is great! The sound options give you a few diferent sounds to choose from witch I really like and sounds great in my apartment!

Consumer Reports rate this TV second amoung all LCD High Definitions and I see why this TV ranks above the Sonys! I bought a sleek,black stand for it & since the TV is black it all looks very cool!

Also I have a XBOX 360. They have a switch on the back of them for high def, witch I can finally take advantage of! The graphics and color while playing it on this Sharp LCD is mind blowing! My buddy has a new Sony LCD 42" LCD and just sold it for a $300 loss just to get a Sharp 42" like mine, the picture is just that good! I am so happy with my new TV! I did my homework and did my research and it has paid off big time with an awsome TV. Hide Full Review
