Elegant Design and HD Performance
Full HD LCD Panel
The LC-40D78UN features full HD 1080p (1920 x 1080) resolution, for the sharpest picture possible. The CCFL-backlit LCD panel provides high contrast ratios for deep blacks and vibrant colors during both dark and bright scenes.High brightness means you can position the LC-40D78UN virtually anywhere--near a window, a door or other light source--and the picture is still vivid. A wide 176-degree viewing angle means the whole family gets to enjoy it.
Built-in Tuners
The LC-40D78UN includes ATSC/NTSC tuners to receive off-air broadcasts, as well as digital cable QAM capability for receiving non-scrambled digital cable programming. It's ready for available DTV and analog TV programming.Three HDMI Inputs
For convenient connection to digital devices, three HDMI inputs are provided, along with two HD component inputs, for a grand total of five 1080p compatible inputs. A pair of composite inputs is also provided for non-HD sources.120Hz Fine Motion Advanced
Sharp uses a unique algorithm to create images that help smooth sharp edges on moving objects, like a running play in football, a player swinging a bat or a car chase. By creating new images and filling in the gaps, motion appears smoother and less jumpy. The result is a smoother picture with more detail. 120Hz Fine Motion Advanced helps smooth motion, for a sharp picture on moving objects.
Vyper Drive game mode helps to eliminate the lag time between the game console and TV.
OPC (Optical Picture Control)
Most television viewing does not take place under perfect lighting conditions--sometimes you watch TV with daylight streaming in the windows, and other times you watch in the middle of the night while your spouse tries to sleep beside you. Sharp's OPC (Optical Picture Control) system automatically adjusts the TV's brightness level based on ambient light, so you'll be able to see a bright picture in a bright room and a not too bright one when the room is pitch black--automatically. Think of OPC as an automatic light-sensing dimmer for your television.Vyper Drive
Vyper Drive game mode helps to eliminate the lag time between the game console and TV. When Game Mode is activated, the signal is streamlined resulting in transmission 5x faster than normal mode.Solid Audio
A pair of bottom-mounted speakers provide 16 Watts (8w + 8w) of audio, enough to fill most rooms. Sharp's "Sound Surround" feature creates a surround effect using just two speakers.Wall-Mount Ready
Easily remove the included table stand and you're ready for wall-mounting.Sharp AQUOS: Environmentally Conscious LCD TVs

Sharp AQUOS 40" 1080P LCD TV, 120HZ frame rate conversion, 3 HDMI, 2 Component Inputs, High Brightness"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."
