wuzzzer Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I was on the fence about getting a different TV and today I made the decision. Went to Best Buy tonight and bought a 70" Sharp LED AQUOS model LC70LE732U. No 3D wasn't a big deal for me and it has all the other features I want such as Wi-Fi with Pandora and NetFlix. They had the TV advertised online for $2799.99 but in-store they have it on sale for $2299.99, $1,000.00 off the original price. Plus, they offered free shipping and 36 months interest free financing. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Sharp+-+AQUOS+70%22+Class+/+LED+/+1080p+/+120Hz+/+HDTV/2047632.p?id=1218317000161&skuId=2047632 They didn't have one in stock but said they'd have one in and delivered by Sunday. Can't wait!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themrclean Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Congratulations on a great TV. Of course, we will need pictures of that beast once you get it home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 At first I was going to go with a 60" TV, but I just didn't like the idea of going smaller. So far my HDTVs have been 42", then 56", then 65" and now 70". I told my wife that I will keep this TV for a very, very long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K5SS Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Congratulations! I love buying new TV's, I went and looked at the Sharp 70" and 80 inch on Saturday buy I did the "walk of shame" out the store with no TV purchased:( Please let us know your first impressions when you get it all hooked up. Oh and snap some pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panacea Engineering Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Yes, PLEASE let us know what you think.....I am looking at one at Costco, that was a demo model, with full warranty for a GREAT price. If you REALLY like yours, it may put me over the fence and I will more than likely pull the trigger.....Damn that thing is BIG.....! I will be moving up from a Sony 46" Flat W. C.

Heritage_Head Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Grats on a great TV I bought the same one. One thing to mention is turn off the film mode (it’s set to on default for some reason). Makes a huge difference in the motion and movement quality. No idea why anyone would have it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Yeah when I was going through the TV's menu at Best Buy I saw a lot of 'enhancements' that I'll be sure to turn off. If only TV manufacturers would make their TVs without all that crap they'd be probably be a lot cheaper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHF63 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I told my wife that I will keep this TV for a very, very long time. You should not lie to your wife like that. [] Seriously, sounds like a beauty. Congrats. Lou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for the sa-xr and all your help!!!! I upgraded to the 55, the dual amp is much better!!!! Thanks again!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 I realized that when we were at Best Buy they said it should be there tomorrow (Friday) but the earliest they could deliver it would be Sunday. I'm going to see if I can round up a friend or co-worker with a vehicle big enough to fit the TV in it to help me pick it up tomorrow night. I have a co-worker who will more than likely be buying my new TV so it will be nice to have the old one gone right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted March 23, 2012 Moderators Share Posted March 23, 2012 Great idea, why let it sit in the store when you could have it at home. [Y] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
