iv done a lot of shopping i recently purchused the sharp 37db5u its great but so great i wanted bigger i convienced pc richards to exchange it for me for this unit i know its a lot of money but lets be real it will be in your home for at least 5 years so if you break it down its not really a lot the quality of the aquos was just rated the number one set by consumer reports in the feb 2006 issue i knew this even before it came out this set is amazing it has surround sound built in and the pictures are lifelike yes you can find cheaper and yes they will try to sell you a service contract but its not necessary this is a high or let rephrase the best quality money can buy like i said this is my second aquos you will not be disappointed, it is true high defination it has a built in tv guide . surround sound  can be hooked up to a pc. its on my wall now in jet black frame i even purchused a bose system to back it up but its not necessary  i compared this set to the panasonics and the sony xbr  i paid 4000 for this set and im a guy who works hard for his money and i consider this the ferrari of tvs
