Sharp's LC-13S1U-B provides a unique, versatile solution for home installation. The LC-13S1U-B's stylish yet simple design, with speakers placed below the LCD screen, makes this television much narrower than side-speaker models. This enables the LC-13S1U-B to fit into many places throughout the home, all without sacrificing any features! The LC-13S1U-B utilizes Sharp's proprietary Advanced Super View/Black TFT Panel, which provides levels of high brightness (430 cd/m2), a 500:1 contrast ratio, and wide viewing angles (170å¼ x 170å¼). Additionally, the LC-13S1U-B is an EDTV monitor, which means it is compatible with 480p signals from progressive DVD players.The LC-13S1U-B includes an easel-style table stand that allows the TV to occupy an amazingly small footprint. In addition, the stand is easily removed for wall mounting applications. These models use the VESA 100mm standard mounting pattern and are compatible with a wide range of brackets including Sharp's AN-PSMARM and AN-PUCM.
Sharp's LC-13S1UB 13-inch LCD TV is a sleek, compact, high-performance flat-panel television from the AQUOS line of liquid crystal displays. The display uses Sharp's proprietary Advanced Super View/black TFT panel to give you extra brightness, a 500:1 contrast ratio, and superior 170-degree viewing angles, which means you can position the television anywhere--even near light sources--and still get clear, bright picture. The built-in tuner lets you plug your cable line directly into the television to watch up to 181 channels out of the box.
The LC-13S1UB comes with an easel-style stand for the tabletop, or the stand can be removed and the set can be wall-mounted using most of Sharp's mounting brackets (not included). The two built-in speakers are positioned below the screen rather than on the side, which makes the television narrower than typical LCD TVs of the same size. The speakers each supply 2.1 watts of power, for a total power output of 4.2 watts. Also included is a full-function remote control (2 AAA batteries included).
You get two composite-video inputs for convenient hookup to your favorite gaming console or camcorder. There are also two rear S-video inputs and one component-video input. The television is EDTV-capable, so it is compatible with progressive-scan DVD players.

2 Big Power Supply
I bought this little TV thinking it would be a great space saver sitting on my kitchen counter. Well, what they don't tell you is that there is a very large power supply that comes with it. The power supply is about one third the size of the actualTV. So if you want to wall mount it, you need to hire an electrician to hide it in the wall or cabinet. The picture is clear but the sound is a bit tinny. Overall, it serves the purpose it was intended for.
