Amazon.com Product Description
JVC's first-ever flat-panel liquid crystal display, the high-definition-ready 26-inch LT-26WX84 incorporates a bevy of exciting features while maintaining its sleek, widescreen (16:9) aspect ratio and ultraslim (under 4 inches) profile. Hook it up to your DTV set-top box or progressive-scan DVD player and enjoy richness and vividness that standard interlaced broadcasting and composite-video signals will never be able to muster. Or simply savor its flat-panel elegance and top-of-the-line images from broadcast TV. With the LT-26WX84, all incoming standard-definition signals--whether from VCRs, cable boxes, camcorders, or aerial antennas--are treated to JVC's Digital Image Scaling Technology (DIST), which upconverts the image resolution to a seamless 768p. It offers a lightning-quick response time of 16 ms, high 500:1 contrast ratio, high 500 cd/m2 brightness, and broad, 170-degree viewing angles so you can enjoy it from nearly anywhere in the room. The LT-26WX84 includes the company's renowned edge-correction circuitry, HD DSD (Digital Super Detail), Four-Point Color Management, TheaterPro 6500K color temperature, Digital Noise Clear Circuitry, an interactive plug-in menu, XDS ID Display, and Natural Cinema 3:2 pulldown (with on/off capability). Other features include an NTSC tuner with split-screen, zoom, and 12-channel multi-indexing. JVC's "Natural Progressive" picture improvement optimizes signal quality using 10.95-million-pixel technology to double the image data in each field and uses advanced 3-D interpolation. LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors and televisions, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (no screen flickering or radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT TVs), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life (no risk of image burn-in), space savings, and light weight/easy positioning. They also tend to be cheaper and, to some eyes, slightly more natural looking than their plasma flat-panel counterparts, which usually "spec" higher (higher brightness, higher contrast ratio). The set's 10 watts per channel stereo sound gives you the most from onboard BBE High-Definition Audio processing (which improves speech intelligibility and restores the dynamic range of compressed musical passages) and revised Advanced HyperSurround (which simulates surround sound from 2-channel programs more effectively than ever). The TV includes an HDCP-protected DVI input (not compatible with computer signals), an auto-sensing HD component-video input, 2 S-video inputs, and 3 composite-video-based AV inputs.

TV, pedestal stand, remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, and warranty information.

Summary: Great picture 2004-12-28
Comment: I started shopping locally for an LCD TV and found this model in a local TV store. It had the best picture I'd seen and seemed like a decent price for the size. Then I came to check reviews on amazon, and found it for much less. I have not been the least bit disappointed by my purchase. When using the DVD player (the reason I bought the TV), the picture is like going to the movie theater. Our local cable (even digital) has not quite caught up with the times yet, but it still has a good picture. If you are looking for a resonably priced large LCD (not a larger screen plasma), this is the TV for you!!

Summary: Excellent LCD at a very reasonable price 2003-12-31
Comment: My brand new LT26WX84 finally arrived a few days ago. I was so excited. First of all, I have to say this LCD looks very attractive on the exterior. It looks almost as good as the Hitachi 42" plasma where the front is all black except the speaker grill on the bottom which is silver. Just like most of the other LCDs, all the AV connections are on the side of the unit except the digital DVI-D interface which is at the bottom. There are a total of 3 sets of connectors although I am not sure why the components for Input 1 are on one side while the RCA audio for Input 1 are on the other side. This poses inconvenience if your component cable also has audio, which is the case of my PS2. I have Dish network at home, but no HD yet. For standard definition (SD), the picture quality is slightly better than my 9year old JVC 27" CRT (my viewing distance is about 8 ft), but it's only on par with Sharp 22" Aquos. I was slightly disappointed in that. To put things in perspective, you can't expect an HD set to perform miracles on a SD source. The display can only be as good as the source. One thing that it definitly outshines the Sharp is the viewing angle. For the Sharp unit, the brightness of the picture changes significantly with the angle, but for LT26WX84, it's quite consistent (although still not approaching the CRT yet). The black level also appears to be slightly better than the Sharp by a hair. Next, I tried my DVD source. Due to space consolidation, I was using my PS2 to playback DVD video. The PQ is quite nice--vivid colors while showing a lot of details. I am sure if you have a progressive scan DVD player, it will look even more amazing. Nonetheless, my PS2 games also never looked better. I am sure Xbox will do even better since it is HD capable. Regrettably, I don't have an HD source, so I can't comment on the PQ. But, based on what I have seen in the store, it shouldn't be short of breathtaking. The only problem with this set is the red color. It appears that red looks a little bit fuzzy esp. for SD source. I tried to adjust the Tint, and it helped a little. But still, red is not as good as I hope it'd be. If other folks have the same set, I'd like to know your settings. Mine are (tint, color, picture, bright, detail) as follows: -8, -10, +10, +4, +10. Overall, if I were to rate this unit, I'd give it a solid 4 star. It needs some tweakings, but excellent bang/$ value.

Summary: Superb sharpness but default settings need to be changed 2003-12-27
Comment: Exquisite sharpness! However none of the four factory display settings (Standard, Dynamic, Theater or Game) produced a fully satisfying display--the colors were too saturated and a bit too red. I played around with various possibilities and once I made the following changes the display was perfect for me: Tint 00, Color -12, Picure +7, Brightness 00 and Detail 00. I now recommend this wonderful television with no reservations whatsoever.
