13" ASV low-reflective Black TFT LCD panel * 4:3 screen aspect ratio * 640 x 480 pixels * EDTV picture resolution (accepts signals up to 480p, displays all signals at 480p) *
Sharp's LC-13S1US 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 a 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-13S1US 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.

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.
