Sharp 32NS400 32" TV
Very good television set @ a great price.
I purchased this Sharp 32&quot; a few months back while shopping around  for a good Picture-In-Picture television set, and things have been pretty  smooth so far.<br />Some of the features include the V-Chip, which the  government is trying to push, A/V jacks in the back and front (great for  video game systems!), and an S-Video input, which is great for DVD players  or a mini-dish if you want the very best picture quality. I plugged in my  DVD player using the audio jacks, and S-Video for the picture, and haven't  looked back. Videos and DVD discs look wonderful on this set. I actually  did a side-by-side comparison with my old set, and noticed that the picture  and contrast was much more detailed on the Sharp (guess that's why they  call it &quot;Sharp&quot;!)<br />There are also plenty of little things that  make this set worth the money. One is the &quot;EquiSound&quot; feature,  which keeps sound at the level you place it at, and prevents the annoying  jump in volume on commercials/TV shows when you surf. I also love how the  Closed captioning feature pops right up when you hit the mute. Very handy  if the phone rings and you need to talk. The menu is pretty simple to use,  and the stereo sound is pretty good. There's an interesting EnergySaver  feature, which some will probably like. I've got mine set to  &quot;off&quot; though, as it seems to make the overall picture a little  darker. The SAP (secondary audio program) function is built in. Stations  like A&amp;E, and PBS are now broadcasting shows with SAP, and I think more  will follow. It's nice to be able to just turn it on at the menu, and  listen to commentary from a director while a movie is playing, or  instructions/tips from teachers during some of the popular children  shows.<br />To me, the only downside to the set is the remote control. Now  don't get me wrong, it's a good Universal remote that can control your VCR  as well. The glow-in-the-dark buttons are very nice too. I guess I'm just  not fondof the design. It seems a bit clumsy for such a wonderful, easy to  use set.<br />Nonetheless, if you can get this Sharp PIP for anywhere under  $600, then you got yourself a bargain. You just can't beat the price, as  other sets with the same features cost as much as $800!
