Sharp Aquos LC 37D43U, does anyone own the 37 in model, and if so how do they like it?

Question

Thinking about buying the new Sharp Aquos 37 D43U supposed to be the next generation of LCD screens. Curious to see what people thought about it. Thank you!

Answer 1

I recently purchased my 32" LCD and after comparing in several stores, the Magnavox's, Toshiba's, & Sony's (which are way overpriced in my opinion); I found I liked the image on my Phillips much better and it was reasonably priced. I am still very happy with Phillips a month later. Consumer reports had it in the top 5 at the time also (Bravia was listed #1 but again, WAY pricey).

The 37" models rank considerably different. Here is the current top 4 from consumer reports:

Toshiba Cinema Series REGZA 37LX96 $1600
Olevia 537H CR Best Buy $850
Magnavox 37MF231D/37 $1300
Hewlett-Packard LC3760N $1300

The Aquos was not listed at all in the 37" models, but did rate
#2 in the 42" and #1 in the 46" models.

Answer 2

I have one and it's ok, but doesn't hold a candle to my Sony Bravia.
