RE: Sharp 40-inch Aquos TV keeps turning itself off.

You may have lots of circulation on the outside but one of the main reasons components in flat screen TVs and computer monitors go bad is because they are so thin that heat easily builds up and the components destruct long before they do in larger pieces of equipment. If something is overheating inside you are not going to feel it on the back of the plastic cover.

I agree, because intermittent problems are difficult and time consuming to trace it may make more sense to wait for it to get worse.

One thing I would try in the mean time is to disconnect the cable box, Apple TV and the Oppo and play a tape (or several) in the VCR to determine if the TV still shuts off.
