A comment about sound quality,
I own this 40″ 78 series Sharp Aquos TV. First said, The picture quality is outstanding, and can be tweaked to an infinite level with all the in depth menu settings. The speakers are on the bottom and fire downward. I find the sound to be very good on all inputs EXCEPT for TV where you are pulling your signal thru a coax cable. For whatever reason sound level is way down on that input. But on HDMI, component, etc sound level is strong and actually sounds pretty good. But to note, this weak sound on the TV input seems to be the norm, as I have noticed that effect on my other non Sharp flat screen TVs as well. I have my Sharp TV sitting in an entertainment center, so that serves as an amplifing box and pushes the sounds out in a good strong level. One GREAT thing about this (and most Sharp TVs) is that they have the RCA audio output jacks that can be connected to the older style receivers that do not have the optical input.
I just plug my red/white audio cable jacks from the TV to the matching input jacks on my receiver and like magic, there is great sound being delivered through my stereo system. You don’t even have to turn the TV’s speakers off, as the output jacks carry the signal along with the TV’s internal speakers. You can turn the TV speaker volume down to zero without effecting the stereo’s sound level, or you can turn the TV’s speaker volume up slightly and get a really cool surround type effect.
All in all I love this TV and it’s quality features. Sharp is one of the leading LCD screen manufacturers in the world, and they usually lead the industry in quality and innovation (Such as the Sharp Quattron screen with the extra “yellow” pixel.)
Sharp has always made great electronics. I currenty have a 30 year old Sharp 13″ TV (with remote control) set up in our kitchen and it still performs as well today as it did 30 years ago when it was new.

Sharp AQUOS LC40D78UN,
We purchased this television about a month ago and so far we’re very happy with its picture and performance. We did pay considerably less buying it locally (just under $600).
Unlike another comment, I had no problem with the remote control, though since adding a satellite receiver to the television, I find myself rarely using the TV remote. The HD picture is just fantastic and even SD television is a far improvement over our previous CRT SD television.
My only criticism of the unit is the sound, which appears to be directed toward the rear of the unit. As we’ve got it sitting in an enclosed cabinet, it took a little getting used to, but is no longer an issue.
For the price we paid, this was an excellent buy.

Great 1st HD TV,
I bought this for our 1st HD tv, for our living room. It is of course not as good as a $1,000 TV but I could not afford that price. I was concerned with the speaker issue several people discussed on thier reviews…BUT there is NO issue….the sound is great and I usually only have it at about 15. No need for a bigger speaker. ALSO someone complained it did not come wiht a manual…but it does, and even if they did not have one you can get it online to download. Additionally, I was a little confused in the set-up but that was due to the cable box not the tv. All in all…we love this tv for the price.
