You've Been Warned

 

If you will only watch this TV from level or slightly above and from a single centered fixed chair position, ever, you will love the picture. Otherwise don't even consider the Sharp LC26SV49OU. I own multiple LCD sets and have never seen anything with...

Good TV, Lousy Sound

 

Picture is bright and clear although the viewing angle from above and below is limited. Sound is tinny - must be using tiny speakers because increasing the base doesn't help. Good TV for the price.

Consumer review by:

great picture, tinny sound

 

The picture is great- clear, sharp (I haven't run it though my setup DVD routine, so I just reduced the factory sharpness setting), has all the inputs I need. I have it running from rabbit-ears in an area where cable is not an option. Built-in tuner...

Great Value

 

I bought this TV to go with a little surround system and the weak audio was not a concern for me. The built in sound is pretty tinny but that's not unusual for a flat panel TV, especially in this size range.

Consumer review by:

Great TV -- sound is BLAH!!!!!!

 

I agree with all the positive remarks about this tv. The picture is great and the size is just right as a bedroom tv or for that matter a kitchen/dining area tv. The sound is at best BLAH!!!!!!!!! It is tinny and shallow and no adjustments make it...

Almost 5 stars 4.75

 

Bought this TV for my office, I needed at least 3 HDMI ports and 1080 resolution since one of the funtions I am using it for is a computer monitor. The 1080 resolution allows 1920x1080 resolution, 720 does not. The TV took about 5 minutes to remove...

Weak Sound and Sports are unwatchable...

 

Ok, so I don't review many consumer products because most of what I buy has been vetted by others and I don't want to waste time agreeing with everyone... That being said, I'd like to let everyone know that this is a mediocre television at best and...

Consumer review by:

Good picture....bad sound....

 

Worked out of the box, easy to set up but the sound is really poor. Adjusting the treble and bass did nothing. Just really BAD sound quality. I would so like to go back and pick a different tv.

Good TV for the technologically challenged

 

I was in the market to replace the 15-inch Magnavox TV I'd had in my bedroom for six years (and at which I had to squint if I got more than a couple feet away from it). I knew I wanted a TV that was at least 24", but I didn't want to break my wallet on...
