The elegant AQUOS® D4U Series easily enhances the decor of any family room, living room or den. With a true 16:9 aspect ratio, HDTV resolution of 1366 x 768, Sharp’s Emmy® award-winning LCD technology and breathtaking color purity, it is a next-generation TV to carry you into the high definition future. The D4U Series utilizes Sharp’s proprietary Advanced Super View/Black TFT Panel, which provides high brightness (450 cd/m2), 4000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio, and wide viewing angles (170° x 170°). All three models are Digital Cable Ready, including a CableCARD™ slot. This means you can “plug and play” with a CableCARD™ from a HDTV-capable Cable-TV system provider, without a separate cable set-top box. The D4U Series features a sleek glossy black cabinet and the included table stand easily removes for wall mounting applications. Other features that distinguish the D4U Series: HDMI and 2 HD component video inputs as well as an enhanced version of Sharp’s proprietary Quick Shoot video circuit, which enables fast response time of less than 12ms.
