 - A very nice LCD, good remote, good valueI am happy with this Aquos. it has an outstanding picture, as good or better than my $3500 Sony XBR5. I am sure the sony must have something more, oh, that is right, the sony uses 400 watts of power, my Sharp uses 120 watts of power. Hmmm. guess the energy star sticker is there for a reason. Only problem is had to get a different wall mount, My New Aquos has a non vesa standard bolt pattern on rear. This is not going to mean anything if you just set it on the stand, but if you plan on wall mounting, be sure to get the universal mount. It has a 440 mm blot pattern. Cheers Rating: - Exceeded my expectationsI have been searching for and HDTV for some time now. I had done all my research, and Sharp Aquos always rose to the top of my list every time. My Sharp Aquos LC37D64U far exceeded my expectations. The picture quality and ease of use is great. Rating: - Great pictureThe picture is clear and Sharp (pun intended). Product specs were exactly as expected, no surprises. Product arrived two days sooner than quoted. Rating: - sharp aquoseasy to install / set up / and great picture and sound....best value for money / sleek slim pleasing design Rating:  - Disappointing audio inputsI bought this TV because it was the only 37" model that would fit in my older entertainment center. The picture quality is good. And I had the TV up and running within about 30 minutes of unpacking it. It did an excellent job of finding all the channels available on my cable system. After using it a week, I have 2 major complaints: 1. Surfing channels is a painful experience. The reaction time is simply too slow. It just feels like it takes forever to get from one channel to another. 2. I could not successfully connect external devices to the TV and get the audio to produce anything but static. I tried a Wii, XBOX 360 and a DVD player. It did not matter whether I used Inputs 1,2 or 3. And I used 2 different AV cables. The result was the same ... STATIC. The speakers worked OK in normal TV viewing mode. So, I could only conclude that something is wrong with the audio inputs on this TV. The only way I am able to successfully connect an external device to the TV is to take the device through an external sound system first, which is a royal pain. Sharp must have a manufacturing/quality problem with the Audio Inputs and I suspect my TV is not the only one they've shipped with Audio Input difficulty. Unfortunately, it's too painful to have to box this thing up and ship it back, so I am stuck with it. My advice - steer clear of Sharp Aquos if you need to easily connect an external gaming device for your kids.
