Summary: Poor quality, poor service
Comment: I bought a sharp lcd tv from j& r in new york last Jan, after a year and half, when powering on the tv, sometimes works, sometimes not. after unplug in, wait for a while and plug back, worked for a couple months. Send it to service center to checkup, was told that the lcd control board needs to be replaced. when request to get back the replaced lcd control board, was told that sharp does not give back the replaced board, it has to be shipped back, otherwise, you have to pay additional fee to get back the replaced board.. it's rather strange to hear such a lousy policy from any vendor..
But, if you do want to get a sharp, better get a long long warranty..

Summary: excellent Flat-Panel LCD
Comment: I purchased my system a few months ago and I am very pleased with it. I love how there is a separate unit to house all the cables. I think it is a lot smarter to buy this model as opposed to the one with the HDTV tuner built in. This model is a lot cheaper and Comcast supplied me with a digital cable box with an HDTV tuner built in. I refuse to watch sports unless it is via HDTV. The clarity of this TV is very clean and crisp. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Pretty good TV.
Comment: I ordered this TV from amazon, and got delivered promptly as per the delivery estimate provided. Entire process is very pleasent and smooth.
Setup is easy, but my DVD player was not able to send digital signals, so I bought LG Electronics HD Receiver/Hi-Format DVD Player (LST3510A), which delivered 720p signal from my DVD, resulted in really sharp picture. I just connected with component video output.
Overall I'm pleased with my purchase.

Summary: Very Happy with the Sharp Aquos 32G4U
Comment: We've had the Aquos TV for a few weeks at this date and are very happy with the picture quality for standard DirecTV, DVD, and PC viewing. We have not upgraded to an HD feed yet, but we were honestly surprised by the improved picture of standard DirecTV versus our previous television (standard CRT).
Pluses:
1) We have found the A/V box design to be great for hiding all the input cables.
2) Sharp offers a couple of different stretch modes to choose from.
3) There are 6 input sources and ability to assign custom names to each.
4) The unit remembers the volume, stretch, and picture settings for each input source. Sounds like a small thing but it is really appreciated by us.
5) The Sharp menus and remote are nicely designed.
6) Speakers sound good for listening to regular content.
7) TV outputs for video capture.
8) Aesthetically pleasing.
9) Vivid pictures!
10) The stand allows the screen to swivel and pivot for optimum positioning. The degrees of rotational are small but effective.
11) Works very well for PC viewing.
12) Placement of the control buttons on top of the panel work nice for us.
Minuses:
1) Only one S-Video input and it is on the front of the A/V box. Won't be an issue after we upgrade our DirecTV receiver but it seems like an oversight not to include one s-Video input on the back of the A/V box.
2) 1080p support is questionable. This may be an issue in the future as true 1080 becomes widely available. Perhaps the A/V box can be upgraded.
3) Expensive. We originally wanted a 37" TV but could not justify the price. However, we were so pleased with all the features mentioned above that we went with the smaller 32" versus other less expensive products.
4) We are not using all input sources, it would be nice if we could disable the unused inputs so they would not appear in the menu.
5) Faint fan noise in the A/V box (this is probably a nit, it's only detectable if TV is muted).
Thanks to all the previous reviewers on this product and other products. The customer feedback really helped us make and informed decision. It can get confusing with all the different display technologies available. Also, some products have known defects that you will only learn about from internet research.
