Excellant choice....for now. (Peter - 9/28/07)

I originally saw a sale on the Vizio 42" for 1k, but then saw the Aquos on sale for 1299. Sharp Aquos for $300 dollars more just seemed a much better investment. Check their website, they have tons of great info. on Sharp TV's. My preference would have been the Samsung 50" LCD 1080P, or perhaps Sony, but they are just still really pricey, but they are really, really good. I'm running through Direct TV which is the first to have just increased their HD Channel selection this month "Sept. 07" and will soon be up to 150 HD Channels! Almost Everything broadcast in 1080I. Beat that Cable! But I digress. With some experimentation on the settings, this TV rocks. Even the non HD channels are acceptable with some tweaking. I'm not even spending the money on Yankee playoff tickets this year. Sports on this TV set at "Dynamic" is pristine. Blacks are deep and rich, and action is fluid with little, or no digital noise. The audio is not the best, but going through a 5.1 system, who cares?
Set up is easy, but a swivel stand would have been nice.
I can't wait until I hook this thing up to a Blu Ray player and get to see full 1080P, but that will have to wait for Christmas!
I did a whole lot of homework before buying and I could not find a better quality TV for the price, but go ahead and try.
