Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2YOUQLQFP5QD This of course is not my first HD TV. My first was a Toshiba DLP, and it was a lamp hog. Then a Toshiba 50 inch plasma, which failed in 3 years, then LG's first 1080p 60 inch plasma (Still working great), a Mitsubishi 73 inch DLP, (Still working great), and now, the ultimate plunge with this Sharp 80 inch TV.My viewing area for this TV is 12 feet at its closest and 15 at the farthest, and I instantly thought when I turned this monster on, that I should have stayed with the 70 incher. Oh well, it is mine and I am happy with it.For its size, this TV is well made and looks nice. Picture quality is excellent as close as 3 feet, and then as far back as you can go. I also purchased this TV from a major retailer in Texas because Amazon would not take 2 credit cards, and G. E. gave me more 36 months interest free credit at the Texas retailer than they did at Amazon on the store card, so Amazon lost the sale. I also looked for quite awhile at the, the Sharp 70 inch, and the Panasonic 65 inch VT30 Plasma, and I chose this TV for several reasons. Overall for size, quality, and looks, coupled with its truly great picture and excellent blacks. Remember, the better the blacks, the better the color, because black is the number one color in the color scheme.I gave this TV 5 Stars because of its numerous features and control ability with its menus. The picture is also superb, but the Panasonic 65VT30 still has a little better picture quality. LED is rapidly gaining on plasma though. Overall, I love this TV, and I will finally stop looking for awhile, because it is like being in a movie theater every time I turn it on. It also does not have the delay when turned on like the Mitsubishi DLP. The other good thing is when this TV is on all day, it is cool to the touch, where the Panasonic plasma is not.Some settings from the calibration of my set, which I noticed was great out of the box, but it was somewhat to the red side on the tints. My calibration settings are as follows, and this was professionally done, and will help the rest of you get yours close. Mine now rocks!Picture SettingsMode - StandardBack light +8Contrast + 26Brightness + 8Color +5Tint + 8 to greenSharpness + 5AdvancedC.M.S. HueRed -1Yellow - 2Magenta + 2C.M.S. Saturation all at 0C.M.S. Value all at 0Color Temp all at 0Active contrast OnGamma - 1Range of OPCMax +4Min -2These settings should get yours into the calibrated ball park, and I have messed with the Sharp line of large TVs for quite awhile, and they are all somewhat to the red side out of the box. I also would not want to ruin a perfect record of Amazon Reviews by giving this TV any less than 5 stars, because I cannot. This TV deserves and has earned all 5 stars in this rating.UPDATEI started having picture problems with mine the next day, and almost sent it back, but I found a loose Monster HDMI cable, and it was also defective. A new monoprice cable for 10 bucks fixed the problem, and the picture is absolutely stunning. So do not trust anything. Always check your cables, and don't pay those high prices for Monster Cables. They're not worth the price difference, and are way over priced.UpdateMine has been on 8 - 12 hours per day, and it has the most stunning picture over and above even the Panasonic and Lg Plasma. Trouble Free, and Sharp even called to make sure I was happy with the product. I have seen the 3d, and it is good, but I my self would not want to watch 3D all the time, so I am very satisfied with this product, and I would buy another one if I had a place to put it. Read the other reviews, this TV rocks and the picture far exceeds theater quality. I also recommend the DVDO Edge Green to which I own 2. One on my Sharp 80 and one on My LG 60 inch Plasma. The DVDO is a video processor with lots of features that will enhance any picture on any TV and up convert and signal in to 1080p 24Hz, and it really works, plus it automatically switches from the DVR to the next component turned on like a Oppo Blu-ray, or DVD Player or surround sound. The DVDO Edge is the best kept secret in the entire electronic industry.February 5, 2013 UPDATEI am over a year now with this TV, and it has been the most enjoyable purchase I have ever made. I have not had one iota of trouble. The picture is clear, crisp and much better, easier to view, and not over enhanced like my 60 plasma. Honestly, I bought this TV because of its size, and now I realize, Sharp makes one of the finest products out there. It is all in the settings, and keeping the firmware up to date. Wish I had the money, I'd put one in every room, and now, I'd give it 10 stars.

We shopped for this locally because we wanted to see the size and picture quality in person and it's amazing. The picture is crystal clear and almost looks 3d due to the amazing depth it shows. We looked at it next to the 70" Aquos as well as other LED TV's and the Aquos line by far has the sharpest, clearest picture. If you are considering either the 70" or the 80" it obviously comes down to economics, but I can tell you the 80" definitely dwarfs the 70" when they are next to each other. We wanted a TV that would essentially look like a movie screen in our living room and the 80" takes up a big part of the wall. If you plan on wall mounting it, I would definitely suggest having a professional doing it based on the weight and the possible need for adding some additional framing to the wall you are mounting this on.

I would consider myself a home theater enthusiast (although I am sure owning an 80" might be a give away on that ;) ). As such, I constantly find myself comparing sound systems, displays, and other home entertainment devices with friends, or simply visiting stores or reading articles on the latest releases. When I heard an 80" full backlit display would be available for under $4K I was intrigued, when i heard it was a Sharp I was skeptical... Spending some time on AvsForum I couldn't help but notice all threads had nothing but glowing comments from people and calibrators I place a lot of trust in.I went to a local BestBuy to view it, and was disappointed. However, having worked at CircuitCity in my college years I know all to well you cannot trust what you see in electronic stores as many simply have the contrast and backlight cranked up to the max, or using the dreaded "dynamic store mode".Luckily I had brought a USB key with some 1080P trailers and some settings from AvsForum to use as a reference. Settings in place, I immediately knew i had found my next set.Seeing the set in the store you realize it is very large, getting it into your house... well that is a feat in itself. Fortunately at just a bit over 120lbs it is not much heavier than the 60" plasma it replaced, but with nearly double the surface area it is a huge difference in a viewing experience.So onto the good items:Movie Theater Sized viewing at home (Yes, i know projectors are bigger, but for those of us without dedicated theater rooms this works great, even in bright room conditions).Picture quality (with the right settings this set is scary accurate and gorgeous to watch)Easy to mount (with a set this wide you may be concerned about finding a bracket to mount it, but the VESA mount points are industry standards and work well with a variety of mounts)Built in Wifi that works very well on my networkNice codec support on the USB playback. (I have watched many shows/videos/photos from a thumb drive)Understated design (this will vary from person to person, but I like my TVs to not draw attention to themselves when off, although with a set this big that is hard) It has a minimal, no frills frame that i prefer.Very good 60Hz performance while watching sports/fast moving shows. (I am not a fan of artificial refresh rates and keep mine in game mode)Playing PS3 on this set is phenomenal, as is Blu-Ray performance.Cons:Viewing angles at closer distance are limited (this is not a fault of the set, when viewed from an appropriate 10+ feet the viewing angle is quite good) compared to a plasma, but this is true for most non IPS LCD displays.Um... honestly i haven't found many other faults. Just don't expect for view from 5 feet away and have the same sharpness as a 40inch, this is made to be seen from a distance away.Overall, this is the greatest set i have owned.Couple of tips: if you want an extended service plan you can buy directly for just a few hundred dollars for a total of 4 years. (This is the best deal I am aware of)Please (for your sake and mine) don't use dynamic picture mode! Below are my settings (this is designed to be accurate to colors and brightness) but I encourage your to experiment to find your own settings as each set seems to have different Red saturation levels.Game Mode:opc offbacklight = 2Contrast = 26BRIGHT = 1COLOR = -5Tint = 4Sharp = 0HueR 5Y 1G -8C 1B 3M -3SatR -10Y 2G 0C 0B 13M 1ValueR 3Y 0G 13C 0B 30M 0Temp (Low)R 13Y 0G -29C 3B 0M -18Active Contrast = OffGamma -2DNR = OffMonocrome OffRange of OPC N/AHappy Viewing!!!
