Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy 48 inches of widescreen splendor with JVC's AV-48WP30 1080i I'Art Pro HDTV projection television. Equipped to render superior high-definition images from a mix of inputs, the 16:9 aspect-ratio AV-48WP30 includes a direct-digital DVI input with HDCP (High Definition Content Protection) to accept uncompressed HD signals from DTV set-top boxes. JVC's DIST (Digital Image Scaling Technology) displays all images in high-definition 1080i, regardless of the source. A scratch-resistant coating protects the set's dark-tinted screen shield.P The AV-48WP30 incorporates exclusive I'Art features like 4 MEGA 10-bit 3D Y/C comb filter, white-character correction circuitry, and an interactive plug-in menu. Additionally, the set offers TheaterPro 6500K color temperature, 75 MHz Digital Super Detail circuitry, Digital Noise Clear circuitry, and Natural Cinema processing for all Telecene sources.P Velocity-scan modulation improves the definition at picture edges, creating sharper images by slowing the CRT (cathode-ray tube) beam's horizontal scanning during demanding work--say, when rendering transitions from light to dark parts of an image--and speeding it up when scanning easily rendered sections, like broad dark areas.P The I'Art Pro Series TV also includes JVC's unique Natural Progressive picture improvement technology to optimize signal quality before the picture is ever displayed. Another proprietary feature, 10.7-million-pixel Natural Progressive technology, doubles the image data in each field and uses advanced 3D interpolation to display a solid image with no noticeable scan lines and eliminates jagged edge noise and image trails.P Dual onboard NTSC tuners offer a 12 Multi-Index-Window Display for ultimate PIP/POP convenience from the set's RF video input. View 12 channels in three rows of four images to select the one most interesting to you, or view still images of three other stations stacked along the right of the screen while you watch one program in the main portion of the screen.P Other connections include dual autosensing HD component-video inputs, assuring the best possible picture quality, whether you're viewing DTV, DVD, or D-VHS tapes, three S-video (Y/C) connections, four composite-video-based audio/video inputs. The DVI input is not compatible with personal computers.P For the set's audio, JVC employs BBE High-Definition Sound Enhancement to improve speech intelligibility and restore the dynamic range of compressed musical passages. Hyper Surround simulates enveloping surround sound from any two speakers, including the set's own stereo 10-watts-per-channel bass-reflex speakers. A center-channel speaker input lets you substitute the AV-48WP30's speakers for your surround system's center speaker, saving space and ensuring that the center-channel dialogue will remain rooted at the screen.P JVC also includes auto clock set, parental controls (V-Chip, front-panel lock, channel guard), and AV CompuLink III for simplified connectivity with other JVC A/V components.P bWhat's in the Box/bbr TV, remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, and warranty information.P iNote: The two-tuner multiscreen function does not operate with all cable boxes./i

 Excellent TV for being an 'early' HD model. August 8, 2009
Edward Hurtley (Portland, OR USA)
I just bought one of these used. It is my first HDTV (not counting watching HD TV through my computer.)
br /
br /As these reviews are almost all from when the TV was new, I figured I would write a review from the current perspective.
br /
br /First, the downsides:
br /It only handles 1080i, not 1080p. Plenty for everything I've thrown at it; but those who have Blu-ray may want a 'real' 1080p TV.
br /It has two 1080i-compatible component connections, and one DVI. No HDMI; although the DVI port works just fine connected to my HDMI-output HD DVD player via an HDMI to DVI cable.
br /It has dual (now obsolete) NTSC tuners, but no digital ATSC tuner. Therefore, the tuner is essentially useless.
br /The picture-in-picture can handle two HD inputs, but it can be a little flaky.
br /It is a rear-projection TV, which means that it has a rather limited viewing angle. The picture looks great as long as your eyes are level with the top of the screen or lower, but playing Wii games that require standing up on it are difficult, because the picture dims very quickly when viewed from above. Likewise, the sideways viewing angle is about 90° to be at full brightness. It drops off quickly thereafter.
br /
br /Now, the upsides:
br /Finding one used can be cheap. Potentially significantly cheaper than a new HDTV.
br /The CRT-based projection system means that it doesn't have a high-power light bulb to burn out. The one I bought is now six years old; and the picture is very bright. (when viewed from proper angles.)
br /In spite of the admonitions that the DVI port isn't computer-compatible, it works perfectly with my MacBook Pro. It supports 720p, or 1080i; with excellent picture reproduction.
br /But, the DVI port does not have sound, so even through an HDMI adapter, you still have to use analog stereo audio (or use a receiver.)
br /The picture looks wonderful, wether from an ATSC tuner (in a VCR/DVD Recorder, connected via component,) HD DVD, computer, or Wii.
br /The sound, while only stereo with faked surround, is good. I have found no need to re-connect my receiver. Good volume, good tone, and enough bass.
Nice tv but......... February 24, 2009
M. Beason (Waldport, OR)
I have one of these televisions and after two years a convergence thingie went out on it. Looked like you were seeing everything in double-vision. Luckily I had an extended warranty on it as it would have cost 600.00 to fix it. They had it about a week. It does have a great picture but I am afraid JVC will not be getting anymore of my money in the future. I also had a JVC stereo receiver that went out in five years. Every other stereo receiver I have had in my life I had to give it away. Apparently none of the letters in JVC stand for dependability
 STILL going strong.... December 18, 2007
P. M. (Illinois)
I've had this TV for more than 2 years and it still works as well as it did on Day One. I found a stand for it at Target so it sits about 18" off the ground now, and it is like being in a movie theater. I've been very pleased with this TV and would recommend it if it were still on the market.
br /
br /***I wrote the above review In 2007. It's now late 2008 and I'm still happy with this TV. I figure I'll keep it until the day it dies--and hopefully by that time there will be cheap flat-screen TVs with some great technology for me to move up to.
Great bargain December 22, 2005
K. Tidwell (TN)
I have had my set since November 2003, one of the best deals on the market for a projection HDTV monitor. No troubles out of this set, excellent picture, lots of features and inputs.
