 Grerat for the Kitchen or Bath!Nov 22, 2009
I bought this TV 2 years age on black friday when circuit city had it 1/2 off for $200. I have it in the kitchen hooked to a surround sound system. I love it! There are 2 remotes, 1 magnetized to stick to the fridge with a timer and clock. and another regular remote. I am going to buy another one for the master bath. Great tv!
 Fits the billMar 30, 2009
This is a great TV for close up viewing. Fits in our kitchen area just right. Dose'nt have the best backlite so some channel programs don't show up very good but the sharpness and color are great. If the backlite were better, I'd say you could'nt buy a better 19" TV. I also have a 26" Sharp so I can compare. The Sharp Aquos is with out a doubt of better quality, no way you could call it junkie.The extra remote is nice but we dont use it very much. Sound is good and there are more then enough inputs. The manual makes setup and operation of the TV easy. Ordering from Amazon was easy and shipping was quick. The price was right so I would give this TV 5 stars except for the backlite.

 Very poor audioMar 01, 2009
The very poor audio output from this TV is in Sharp (pun intended) contrast to the picture quality, fit and finish. I normally watch my small TV while seated at my dining table. The TV is on the table. With factory settings, the maximum audio output is so low it is below my normal listening volume when I am seated across from it. Audio output was totally useless when viewed from my kitchen area while cooking and cleaning up.
I opened the settings menu and boosted the treble and bass to their maximum settings to boost audio output. That helped a little but the output is still below acceptable limits by a lot. I should not have to listen to the TV at the maximum volume setting of 60. I do not listen loud and I am not hard of hearing.
Sharp spent more money and attention to the kitchen timer/clock remote than they did to audio output and they did not even include RCA audio outputs so the TV could be connected to an external analog amplifier or preamplifier. I also have a 46" Sharp Aquos LC-46D62U and the audio output is equally dismal. I get around that by watching it through my stereo system. Apparently many (maybe all) Sharp TVs are lacking in audio performance. I will never buy another Sharp product.
This television is stunning appearance but tragically flawed. Don't be fooled by a pretty face.

Performance of Sharp Aquos LC19D45UFeb 09, 2009
The picture quality is excellent, the audio is good as long as you are in the same room. The set is located in the kitchen and we eat in the dining room---we have the sound turned all the way up to maximum and it is barely audible. Otherwise I think this is a great TV for the money.

Unsuitable pictureFeb 06, 2009
I hope that the one I got was just a lemon, but had to return it (which is very easy with Amazon's system).
I have two other LCD HDTVs in my house on Cox cable. The house is wired with cables to most rooms, and this one was for the kitchen to replace an old Sony CRT set.
I am fussy about the screen image, so spend some time adjusting the various settings on the menus. Both my other TVs, a Sony and a Toshiba, now have excellent pictures.
I spent several hours over three days trying to get a decent picture on the Sharp. It was very dark, and when I got it lightened up, the contrast was too flat no matter how I adjusted that. The color was way off and no matter how I fooled with Color and Tint, could not get a decent picture. I like to use a closeup of faces to adjust the Tint, and when I got a face, I hit Freeze to keep it there. However, as soon as I opened the Menu, the Freeze went off. That is too bad, as it would help to have it stay there while I adjusted the skin tones.
It is ironic, as the ten-year-old CRT Sony has excellent, bright and properly-colored pictures on all channels, so I just put that back and will use it until it dies (as have cable, no problem when stations all go digital).
As others have found this model to be good, I can only assume that this one was defective, but I don't want to go through all that hassle with a replacement, so just asked for a refund.
