DO NOT BUY THIS TV unless you are prepared to deal with an incompetant company with a non-existant warranty. I purchased this Sharp Aquos LC-52D82U on 12/11/07 and have owned it for only 2 months. As my wife and I were watching and enjoying the great picture on this tv, the picture suddenly began to disappear, beginning from the left side of the screen and continued to the right until there was no picture at all. There was still sound comming but no picture. Obviously a manufacturer defect. I got in touch with Amazon immediately who told me to get in touch with 6 Ave. Electronics, where the tv was actually sold from. They told me I had to contact Sharp (already a hassle). Once I finally contacted Sharp Customer Service they told me it did indeed sounded like a manufacture defect and would send an authorized Sharp service person to come and try to repair it. I explained I did not want a repaired tv I expected a new replacement or a full refund. I spent $2600 for a new tv, not a new refurbished tv. They told me the 1 year warranty only covers parts and labor for the tv. Now its been 1 week from the day the tv malfunctioned and Sharp told me it will take one more week to get a service person out to my house to fix it. If they can’t fix it they will replace the existing tv with a new one, which could take another two weeks. Huge hassle.

About one year ago I purchased the Sharp 52″ LCD TV. I am very happy with this purchase. The picture has excellent sharpness and color, with no color banding as experienced with some of the earlier versions.
This TV has performed perfectly with no problems. A very nice feature of this TV is the automatic picture level control, which controls the level of brightness of the video under variable room lighting conditions, especially on a partly cloudy day, when the lighting constantly changes.
The audio is good if you do not use maximum bass setting, as setting bass level too high overdrives the built-in speakers at high audio levels. The audio is surprisingly good at normal settings with the bottom mounted internal speakers.
Don’t be afraid to explore all the video settings to achieve the picture that will please you, as it takes some experimenting to get this right, but it’s worth it.
I highly recommend this TV after using it for almost one year. This is my 3rd Sharp TV….all with excellent reliability.

I am very happy with the product. it is easy to set up and once I hook it up with a blue ray player, I was amazed by the quality of the pictures.
I saw some other brands that are cheaper than sharp but you get a much better TV with sharp.

Bought the tv as a Circuit City close-out. Was defective when I brought it home. I assumed Sharp would replace it with new since it is 2 days old. They are insisting on a repair after a week wait. I had to call twice to get that info. Very disappointing customer service. Very disappointing experience with Aquos so far.

read the reviews, did the research, took a chance and purchased through amazon and their affiliates. It was a wonderful experience. No hard sell for anything like you would find if you purchased from some of those other sites. About the only down side is the screen reflects a muted shine from a light that the prior TV (panasonic plasma)did not reflect.
