Sharp Aquos LC42D62U 42" 1080p LCD HDTV

One of the best selling 1080p LCD HDTVs on the market, the Sharp Aquos LC42D62U offers a great range of features in an affordable set. A quick review of somparisons and ratings from around the Web make it clear why the LC42D62U is a consumer and critical favorite.

With a 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and impressive viewing angles of 176 degrees, this Aquos is helping to shatter the criticism that used to knock down LCDs in comparisons with plasma sets.


Virtually any seat in the viewing room is a great seat to view the brilliant colors and bright pictures on the LC42D62U. Its impressive 42" screen delivers a full 1080p of high definition resolution, which is twice the resolution of competing 720p HDTVs.

Sharp has developed a unique Advanced Superior View/Black TFT Panel to produce some of the whitest whites and deepest blacks available on the market today. Sharp also stands out by adding crimson to the standard blue, green and reds displayed on standard HDTVs.



When shopping for a big-screen HDTV, you must factor in the size of your room and how far you'll be sitting from the set. Industry standards suggest that a set like the 42" Aquos LC42D62U should ideally be viewed from approximately 10 feet away.

And no HDTV review would be complete without consideration of audio presentation. The Sharp Aquos LC42D62U measures up in the sound department as well. And with a more than adequate selection of input options (3 HDMI and Dual Component inputs), this Aquos model clinches a good rating in our book.
