Customer Review: WARRNING
Don’t buy a Syntax Olevia! I bought one and it died almost to the day the warranty went out. Customer service said I would have to pay to ship it back and pay the parts and labor to fix it and that would cost over half of the TV’s cost. They wouldn’t offer to help with anything and they said they lost my registration card, the same one they used to call me with to ask me how I liked it a week after I bought the TV. So all I can do is to post this to every blog I can to try to inform others.
Customer Review: DID LOTS OF REASEARCH- this is a GREAT TV! (though not beautiful design wise)
I love this TV. As far as picture quality go, it’s top notch.
We researched TV’s on CONSUMER REPORTS and this one gained great reviews so we went with it.

We have not been disapointed! The picture is crystal clear. There are a few cons though:
1. the look: I personally prefer the look of speakers on the SIDE of the TV, not underneath it. Also, I might have gotten a silver TV, not a black one… but that is just me.

2. some stations have this this strip of fuzziness at the top (looks like static?>) on SOME HD channels. I don’t know if this is typical, but it sure is aggravating and it’s been there from the beginning. You get used to it after awhile though.

For the price, though, we love it! BEAUTIFUL picture!

Customer Review: Sony Bravia TV Stand
Sony SU-FL300M TV Stand for 32″-40″ BRAVIA® LCD HDTVSony SU-FL300L Floor TV Stand for 46″ to 52″ BRAVIA LCD HDTV I highly recommend this product. The instructions were very clear and I was able to assemble it by myself in less than 1/2 hour. There are connections at the top of the TV Stand so that the appropriate Sony Bravia TV can be physically attached to the stand. You don’t have to worry about the TV falling over backwards or forwards. It’s not going anywhere. The stand itself looks very nice with its “black piano gloss finish” and has a great system to contain the various cords in the back.

Customer Review: Great Set for a Small Price!
I bought this set in Oct 2007..We had been living with a 19″ color set in the living room for many years, and it was time!
I had to choose a set that would fit in our small living room, yet give
good quality color and sound.
It is now June 2008, and this set is wonderful! If you have a living room that is 12×17 or smaller, this is great! . The controls are good, however, if you use playstation, or need to connect video, not too convenient..On the side… I love Panasonic..The sound is great, the picture is great.I am still very happy with this set. I can now see this set without my glasses! (well except for letters)
Highly recommended for a great view and sound! Sound is very very important to me…I have extremely sensitive hearing. Panasonic is the best in this category.
Customer Review: New to HDTVs
I’m new to this HDTV thing, so I was expecting a super crisp, clear image. I’m using a DVD player which is connected using either s-video or component. It seems to me the image could be crisper. Not sure if this is a failure of the TV or the DVD.
Also, I don’t enjoy watching movies that are stretched out. We change the aspect ratio each time we watch a movie to see what works best. We may need an HDTV DVD player… not sure if that will allow us to use the full resolution it’s capable of.

Customer Review: Average TV; maybe b/c it’s not made by Sharp
Saw this TV at a warehouse club (starts with “C”). Average picture. Not as good as the other non-DVD Sharp 32″. Found out that this TV is made by Orion (Sansui) while the non-DVD 32″ is made by Sharp.
Customer Review: Simple, works well, great picture, sound could be better
I purchased and installed this model a few days ago. I also purchased a wall bracket from Amazon and hung it on the wall within a 1/2 hour. This Sharp picture is great, DVD works quite simply by sticking a DVD in the side slot, but the sound out of the built in speakers could be better.

We have this in a small bedroom where the sound level will be adequate but even at max volume I found it not to be as loud as one might expect (perhaps it is just this one unit?). The quality of the speakers is also not up to par - but good enough. I expect most people who are purchasing this type of LCD with a built in DVD are doing what I’m doing; putting it somewhere like a small room where there is no other equipment like an A/V receiver and surround sound system. So the expectation is for good quality sound and sufficient volume. I have some external, self powered, speakers I could use but that would defeat the compact setup I desired.

All that said though it is adequate and I would still recommend this TV/DVD combination. The price was right, the TV isn’t too heavy to handle when mounting it, and the remote is reasonably designed. I had the stand installed for a couple of days and it was quite stable although offers no tilt. I like the idea that it has HDMI, composite, component, and PC inputs so I can expand its use if I wish.

Customer Review: w00t!!!
I LOVE my new tv. I got it because it fit in my space good and I am amazed at how good it looks and sounds. I would highly recommend this tv. I think for a TV under 40″ you don’t really need the 1080 dpi. I did a lot of research and this is teh one I got it is sweet!
Customer Review: 100% Satisfied…
I bought this television five months ago, and could not be happier. My buddy bought a 41 inch 1080p LG at the same time, and i can not see one single bit of difference in picture quality between the two. Xbox 360 looks every bit as good in 1080i on my tv as PS3 does in 1080p on his, same with hd cable tv and blu ray. All in all, this is the largest size 720p set you can buy with no difference in picture, and i swear to you that there is absolutely NO difference. I love this tv, i dont quite understand the opc setting, as it dims and brightens the picture according to darkness, but is sort of annoying so i leave it off, and the only other problem is the cord falls out when you move the television, but how often do you do that. I now swear by sharp, and i had previously had a very strong loyalty to samsung. Another buddy is a sony guy, and he is planning on a sharp next time around, even though he had just purchased a 1080p sony. Out of the box, it is so bright it hurt my eyes, which is good…which is good. The color and blacks are amazing. Dont hesitate for a second to buy this set, you will not be sorry.

Customer Review: 40″ Bravia Sony HDTV
I purchased the 40″ Sony Bravia HDTV. I am very please with how it arrived. It is perfect in every way…..
Customer Review: Awesome TV
I’m not going to write about all the technical stuff. That’s been done. We love this TV. We’re not high tech folks and could plug this in and watch. It does replace an older model tv so anything modern would look better but still it makes watching tv a better experience. It is very easy on the eyes too. Color is beautiful. We’re very pleased. Perfect!

Customer Review: Shines in video, tad weak in audio
PROS

Video:

Consistent high picture quality across all resolutions, but at times consistently over saturated at 480i analog. With available custom user settings, the SE94 allows one to set a custom preset 480i color compensation. All the following were reviewed via Cable TV setting, DVD player or using the [...] test DVD.

color balance
image movement
still
sharpness
free of artifacts: jaggies, ghosting, image runs, especially in fast motion video

These are the settings I’ve tested:
480i via analog TV signal or digital
480p standard DVD output and digital TV
720p Broadcast HD digital
1080i Broadcast HD digital
1080p DVD output upconverting

Sharp’s advanced video features are set at default, most are OFF. The test DVD showed a small amount of red color bleed and slight staggering in anti-aliasing tests, but no moire patterns.

I compared the video with input provided by a Sony NS700H/B DVD Player. The video is inferior via composite but there is little difference in images between component and HDMI inputs. I compared audio RCA cables instead of component cables on the component jack and was surprised by a slightly degraded picture, so slight it would not be noticed unless it was compared against HDMI.

HDMI offers some convenience features: it auto selects the HDMI input once signal is detected, and turns off the device automatically once the TV is turned off.

Tuner:

Includes NTSC, ATSC and QAM tuner. The QAM tuner allows access to ‘open’ digital channels, not advertised by the cable company.

Shipment:

Via Amazon ordering, deliverer carefully followed sign off instructions to the letter: allowed me to examine the condition of the box at delivery, open box, and examine contents before I signed off on the delivery.

Setup:

Quick and easy. Attach speakers then mount stand, all screws or bolts supplied with tools. Plug into AC and cable coax, and the SE94 automatically detects signal and begins EZSETUP process. Follow onscreen instructions and when done, the TV is ready to watch cable or air broadcasts.

For Input jacks, equally easy. Just snap on the cables as color coded or the HDMI, then select INPUT from the remote until you receive signal from the device. On HMDI devices, it auto detects signal and auto selects that input first.

Setup is unique per input. The SE94 remembers the volume and video setting of each input.

Packing:

Very durable and sturdy. The lower half of the box serves as a stand until you can assemble the enclosed stand. Importantly, the styrofoam pads never go farther than the metal frame of the LCD panel, and thus do not touch the glass panel anyway. It would be wise to save the box in case this TV needs to be returned, its very customized to the TV and difficult to provide the same protection for shipping as this box.

Instructions:

The Sharp manual is not as well written as a Sony manual. It seems to require more careful reading, whereas Sony’s has always been user friendly.

Cables:

None supplied. I used or bought cables elsewhere.

Faux leather trim:

Is almost invisible, other TVs with shiny metallic borders often get dulled by fingerprints, the faux leather appears cleaner longer because it hides dirt better.

CONS

Remote layout poor but provides access to all the TV’s functions: related or frequently used buttons are not grouped logically together and often small; it can’t be operated without looking at the keys, e.g. the universal controller has a toggle that lights up LEDs when its set for DVD, VCR, TV etc., whereas on a Sony, these are all unique buttons, and easier to find and press.

Bands: Using the detailed [...] TV tests, slight bands were detected on my SE94 using ‘grey scale’ test, its otherwise most invisible. On some LCD TV forums, there are reports of sizable bands in the SE94 series that are annoying and can be seen in regular video. Just how common these are is unknown.

Volume is a tad weak: at 15Wx2 its rated stronger than many competitor LCD TVs yet it output is weaker compared to my old analog TV. The emulating ‘Surround’ algorithm of Sharp is not as ’surround’ as the SRS algorithm.

CONCLUSION:

Given the audio issue, I’d rate it 4.5 Stars versus 5. The video is so stellar, it more than outweighs the audio drawbacks. Buyers should be cautious that reports of banding has been reported in the SE94 series, and it can be very troublesome.
