Sharp has readied their new LX series LED Aquos HD TVs to come in around mid of November. The Sharp LX Aquos LED TVs will be available in a number of models, which are the 40-inch, 46-inch, 52-inch and 60 -inch.
Unfortunately, the smaller models such as 32-inch was usually available in previous Aquas LCD TV series, but is not in the LX series. Apparently with the sizes to start from 40-inch, they are meant for the rich with bigger living space.
The Aquos LX series are LED HD TVs, which use LEDs to light up the LCD panel for better contrast and black levels. And amazingly, the Sharp LX Aquas is able to produce a new level of image quality with 2000000:1 contrast ratio and a 30% reduction of energy consumption.
The Sharp Aquos LX series are also equipped with excellent sound system. The 46, 52 and 60-inch models come with Du-Bass ARSS 6 speaker system with a nice 2.1ch, that promises to deliver excellent audio experience. But the system is not available with the 40-inch model. Read more about it in the press release below:
Sharp Corporation will introduce into the Japanese market four models (60V-inch, 52V-inch, 46V-inch, and 40V-inch*1) of the LX Series “LED AQUOS” LCD TVs from November 10, 2009. Coming on the verge of 2010, the tenth anniversary of the first AQUOS LCD TVs, this series employs a newly developed LCD panel and an LED backlight. Further advancements in the LX Series give it both improved image quality and environmental performance. Newly developed panels incorporate Sharp’s proprietary UV2A*2 photo-alignment technology for bright whites and extremely deep blacks; and the LED backlight offers highly precise control of the light output. In addition, the combination of these newly developed panels and the LED backlight gives the LX Series high energy efficiency that results in the industry’s lowest level of energy consumption*3.
The LX Series offers a further evolution in digital image processing performance thanks to Sharp’s AQUOS High-Picture-Quality Master Engine image processing chip for highly precise reproduction of fast-moving images. The new Preferred Image Sensor not only adjusts to the room viewing environment and the on-screen content; it also automatically adjusts image and sound quality to the viewers’ personal preferences. In addition, the new AQUOS Familink II makes it even more convenient to access the relevant functions of peripheral devices and thus easily control them while watching TV.
The LED AQUOS represents the coming-together of Sharp’s years of expertise and knowledge in LED and LCD, along with its vertical integration in which all processes from device development to final product manufacture form a virtuous upward spiral. Since introducing the AQUOS as the TV for the 21st century in January 2001, Sharp has always aimed for the pinnacle of flat-screen TVs. Sharp will release the LED AQUOS globally in an effort to bring a new TV lifestyle to people around the world.
