When the engineers at JVC designed the LT-46J300 46" 1080p HD LCD TV, they paid careful attention to every detail. How else do you explain the well-thought-out feature set that includes a terrific picture, startlingly realistic sound, a user interface and remote control that streamline and simplify operation, and a panel of inputs and outputs that consider today's and tomorrow's connectivity needs?

For starters, the full HD 1080p LCD display boasts a 20,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, a high 500 cd/m² brightness, and an 8 ms response rate, for a crisp, detailed image. The set incorporates a five-point color management system, a digital comb filter, and dynamic gamma control for rich, vivid colors that will delight the most discriminating videophile.

Complementing the gorgeous picture is a complete sound package that produces a room-filling audio experience. The LT-46J300 features 20 watts of total audio power delivered through two oblique cone speakers. To customize the sound to the user's taste, the HDTV includes JVC's OmniSurround system with listening modes for music, movies, news, and mono sound. A built-in equalizer offers additional presets for speech, jazz, classic, rock, and user modes.

These video and audio features wouldn't be as valuable if you couldn't access them easily. Realizing this, the JVC engineers created a graphical on-screen interface and unified remote control that work together beautifully to make operating the LT-46J300 simplicity itself. The clean, clear graphics highlight every user choice, and the remote executes each command effortlessly.

To enable convenient hookup of all your video components, the LT-46J300 includes a full complement of jacks: 3 HDMI, 2 Component, 1 S-Video, 2 AV inputs, 1 fixed audio output, and an optical digital audio output. There's also a USB input for photo and video viewing.
