What type of displays do Sharp use?

from 42d62u to 42d64u's and the 42d72u, and other bigger/smaller sizes, do they use IPS or PVA panels, I know they don't use TN based on how well the viewing angles are.
 
ASV, a much improved VA varient.

Viewing angles seemed quite limited on the Sharp. Or at least, with any degree of off angle viewing of a white screen, such as Google's, a yellowing effect quickly came into play on the Sharp...

(Unless it was some other problem...)
 
I found the viewing angles of the LC32GP1U and LC32/37D62U to be quite bad. Last year I was so gung-ho on getting a 32" widescreen for a monitor, and these seemed perfect.

I compared these side-by-side to the LG 37LB5D at a A/V retailer, and ended up walking out with the LG.

Compare these to Samsung's MVA/PVA based TVs or Sony's S-LCD (same technology as MVA/PVA) and they pale.

Dunno about the new ones though. It's a game of leapfrog.

Definitely not TNs. You will never see TNs on TVs unless they make some breakthrough in color and viewing angles though.

Whites (and red to some extent) are the weakness to the ASV technology, but they surpass other VA in response, lag, and black levels.

Don't know about the black levels part. (Compared to Sony and Samsung TVs, I don't believe that's true anymore...)

Don't know what the OP plans to use their set for. However, for computer use, I'd highly suggest looking at Samsung...

(Had a GP3U for a few weeks. And it was probably nice enough actually, except for some bright bands my particular sample had, which prompted a return. However, the Samsung, with its traditional pixel layout, is clearer as a computer display. And the blacks are some of the best ever for a non-LED backlit LCD...)
