The JVC LT-23X576 is a 23-inch LCD TV that weighs in at less than 22 pounds and is only 9 inches deep with its stand. It can easily fit on a desk, nightstand, or tabletop, and it even has a convenient handle for moving it from place to place.

This attractive silver set has a wide-format WXGA panel surrounded by a black frame that subtly sets off the picture, with stereo speakers tucked below the screen to save space. The tilt-and-swivel table stand can be removed for mounting the monitor on the wall using a separately available mounting kit.

Resolution is 1,280X768, with a contrast ratio of 500:1 and brightness rated at 500 cd/m2. The LT-23X576 can accommodate a range of input signals, including standard 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1,080i from an external HD receiver.

The screen is viewable from 170 degrees, and colors are rich and bright from any angle. A 3-D Y/C digital comb filter eliminates dot crawl and other interference, and movies come through without any uneven motion thanks to 3:2 pulldown conversion. PC content can be displayed on the LT-23X576 and can even be viewed in picture-in-picture mode, splitting the screen between TV and computer content.

The stereo speakers produce a total of 10 watts of audio output, and they can be configured to create a 3-D effect. A sleep timer, five video presets, automatic shut-off when no signal is received for 10 minutes, and parental controls including V-chip and front-panel lock add to the appeal of this compact model.

The inputs are set up for adding several components, with side audio/video, S-video, and component video inputs, along with an RF input and a 15-pin D-sub PC input. The remote control makes managing the various TV functions easy and intuitive.

The JVC LT-23X576 is HD-ready and PC-capable, ensuring it will be a rewarding addition to a study, dorm room, or office.
