If you believe that LCD picture quality still doesn't measure up to plasma, Sharp's 37" LC-37D6U high-definition TV may make you reconsider. Its widescreen picture is flat-out gorgeous. And whether you place it on a table or A/V stand or hang it on the wall, its lean, clean design and titanium finish add high-tech style to any room.
This set's high-resolution screen has 1366 x 768 pixels, which is the same pixel count you typically find in a top-quality 50" plasma. You don't have to be a math whiz to realize that having so many pixels squeezed into a 37" screen means that each pixel is smaller, and smaller pixels create more seamless, finely detailed images. Also, Sharp's "Quick Shoot" video circuitry solves the problem of "motion lag," which plagues many LCD displays. Quick Shoot provides very fast pixel response time, which means you'll see naturally smooth on-screen movement, with no distracting smearing or ghosting.
High-resolution screens thrive on high-res signals. This "Digital Cable Ready" TV can receive over-the-air and cable HDTV programming without the need for a separate tuner box (you will need a CableCARD from your local provider to get cable HD programs). And if you want to see your favorite DVD movies at their best, take advantage of this TV's HDMI input and connect an "upconverting" DVD player. The direct digital connection produces a picture that will knock your socks off.
