I guess we're still not sure dynamic contrast can be switched off? (People getting conflicting results?)
Thanx for the question Jungle, No I have never even opened that "compartment".Are you talking about the "AV MODE" in the flipdown compartment. If so, what mode do you have it set on. I'm guessing "DYNAMIC (FIXED)"?

Reread my post. cuz I edited it just a minute ago, to make the procedure a little clearer.
You do this: Point your hand-held Remote at the screen, and press the 'Menu" button,
Then u see the screen that I described above.
Follow my instructions from there. Good luck, holler if u have problem, I'll answer it if I come back this way again. Cheerio....
Thanks everyone for the info.
I also cannot discern any dynamic contrast/color issues with "Active Contrast" off. (If it's there, its too subtle for me to see...)
My CRT is having issues and this panel is an improvement over previous ones. And LCD does have one advantage over CRT, it's huge...
Looks like it's got one bad pixel so far, but its right up against the top edge and of no consequence. Anyway, have a 30 day return policy. Will be deciding if this is the one...
junglicious's pictures and all the reviews were the deciding factor in me purchasing this TV/monitor. I can't wait to get it and be able to post in the Show your LCD thread. This will be a major upgrade from my 19" HP. Hopefully it arrives in one piece in 3 days.
Just got my 32GP3U. Came in perfect condition with no dead pixels (despite some rough packaging). I must say, this monitor looks I terrific. The better response time and contrast ratio over my 2407WFP was instantly noticable. I was concerned going from 1900x1200 on a 24" to 1900x1080, but I haven't really noticed a different yet. Games like The Witcher, HL2 E3, Portal, Oblivion and Bioshock look absolutely stunning. I was toying with getting a Gateway XHD3000 (for $500 more), but very glad I went with the GP3U. Unlike some others, my text is clear and color conformity is good. Wanted to get it from J&R (I've been shopping there since a kid), but in NY. Got it from Fry's tax-free.
Thanks Zak for the settings - those worked perfectly for me. The factory backlight setting was blindingly bright...
That said, I do have one issue: I cannot play Crysis in fullscreen mode at any resolution. Upon launching the game, the screen seems to adjust resolution, then goes to black, and the error "An incompatible video signal was received. Check your settings." I then cannot restore the display and must reboot. Strange, because windowed mode runs fine in Crysis, as do all other games I've tried. I've tried adjusted the resolution in the game to many levels, but the error still appears. I suppose I could just play in windowed mode, but the edges continue to annoy me.
There are audio inputs on back to allow for non-HDMI hook ups. (If stereo is enough...)
Unfortunately, those audio input only work for that particular input. HDMI (input 4, 5, or 6) doesn't have any audio input option
I was hoping there are some work around. It's no big deal, many people probably either use a headphone or external speaker.
I just ordered mine this weekend after having JR.com price match a competitor. It should be here by Friday.
Anyone hooked this up to a Wii and know if there's any upscaling lag or not? I hooked up my Wii to an LG lcd via component and it lagged like crazy (well maybe just a little bit but there was no way you could play Wii Sports)
Who did they match it to? I've been looking for a cheaper price (and hoping for free shipping) from them since if I have issues, I can just bring it to them to exchange. So far cheapest is 6ave. Called them and they offered $1130, but I don't think they have a return policy on 32"+ tv's (though not sure about exchanges).
just a quick question: how'd you manage to connect this to your PC with 1920x1080 resolution?
i connected it with a DVI-VGA adapter, then plugged a VGA cable into Input7.
the max resolution i have is 1600x1200. do i need a DVI cable for full 1080p output?
and rukawa: i got this in Vancouver, Canada for 1000$ cdn+tax from a small Asian store in Richmond, BC
they offer the black, white, or red models, i got the red one
if u want sharp's top-of-the-line, the SE94 series in 46 and 52inches are coming soon from this store too. their price for the 46 is 2500$ CDN i think
I received my Sharp last Thursday and man am I impressed. I changed the settings according to this thread and man what a beautiful picture. I only sit about 2 1/2 feet away and I barely notice the larger pixel size compared to my 19" display. I am definately impressed and am very happy you guys talked me into it.
Try out the preset "AV MODE" in your bottom remote compartment. You can customize all of those AV MODE besides the DYANAMIC (FIX) mode.
What kind of video card do you have and does it support up to 1900x? It could be that you need a HDMI to DVI and not a VGA to HDMI?
MSRP is 1600$ USD, i got it for 1000$ Cdn +tax
I am ordering mine as soon as i get paid on thursday! Getting it from pcnation for $1207 shipped with free 3 day ground! I am so excited about getting this display and will post my thoughts as soon as I can
no they don't have a website, and it's owned by a Taiwanese familyhi.
I finally saw your post up there.
do you know if they have website or something else?
I'm in montreal. so I don't think I could make it there...
thanks for your info tho.
