Video Reviews

This is just speakers and a base. To work, you must also purchase the SkiFi receiver.

Very nice looking unit that plays satellite radio (XM), CD's (including ones you burn), and AM/FM radio. Highly recommended.

I am quite impressed by the sound an functionality of this Stereo/CD/DVD player. You just can't beat the price, and it looks pretty stylish too. Highly recommended.

I bought this system for my bedroom and it is a great find and it playes music as good as my Phillips suround sound! you realy can't go wrong even for full price!

The quality of this tape is really good, specialy if it used with sun light. It shows an excelent images in both record speeds. The colours are fantastics and I think the prices is good.

Dont play aroudn with cheap tapes, get this quality Fuji tape and be assured of good video images. The sound playback is extremely clear too.

I have used it for a week works fine good sound (for the money)
Great looks exeeded my expectations. Te volume is not really loud but for a medium room will work grat. If you are lloking for a budget all in one not needing real power speakers this is it.

I finally broke down and bought a DVD player. The Go Video system is great, it plays all sorts of DVD formats, cds, mp3s and it has an am/fm reciever. This is a fantastic home theatre and a kickin stereo!

I just bought this dvd player yesterday and this was the best investment! i have a 5 yr old and a 20 mo old who spent 3 hrs playing with the microphones and singing. and my 5 yr old feel like he is a big real big boy now since he can work the dvd player himself (and he does not even have to mess with the previews and menus!) this is a great product for kids! (and makes it easier on parents too!)

This is the perfect DVD player for my children. Set up is very easy. The Remote Control is extremely simple to use. Video playback in high quality. The On Screen Display Set Up menu is very well thought out and easy to use. In fact, I confess, I bought an extra one for my family room because the features it has a special feature that plays directly to the movie. No need to watch unnecessary previews. This is so easy to use, it is good for adults as well as kids.

This is the best HD-Ready set that is made. This is the only direct view set that has Svga/vga inputs and Wideband Component inputs. The set also does the anamorphic squeeze where many hd-ready sets can't. Unlike the RCA mm36100 or Toshiba 36x81 this set can display a true high definition image in a 16x9 frame. That makes this a true HDTV. The set also includes a built in line doubler.

I am very satisfied with this product. It produces images of the quality and definition you might expect to see only on your pc monitor. In fact, it's equipped with front and rear VGA ports which allow direct connection to a pc and will display at full 640x480 or 800x600 resolution. This is the perfect tv for pc gamers who want to play on big screen, and if you have a Sega Dreamcast system, hook it up with a Madness Gameware DC VGA adapter and you'll be in for a real treat for the eyes. One thing I don't like is that the video adjust menu blocks out most of the screen, making it difficult to see the effects of color and tint adjustments. This is only a minor quirk in an otherwise excellent product.

I have a big screen with only one HD capable component input. Unfortunately, I have HD and a progressive scan DVD player. This fixed the problem beautifully. It works great and the price was right!

This JVC component switcher does everything easily and well. It does not require a seperate power source and it is very easy to set up. It allows you to hook up several component electronics to your HDTV with little signal loss, meaning that pictures will look just as good on your HDTV. Most HDTV's come equipped with only a few component hook-ups, so this unit simplifies your a/v connections without having to switch out your other units everytime you want to use another system(i.e., XBOX, Gamecube, Directv). Most of us digital tv owners have several units to hook up and this unit is very welcome in any Digital A/V setup!

There are a couple of key features that really make this unit stand out:

1) It has more inputs than you can shake a stick at, and once you have the thing configured properly, everything works just like you'd expect.

Most notably, it does audio *and* video source switching. All your video devices send their signals to the amplifier, and a single video out cable is run to the monitor. So when you switch inputs on the amp, the appropriate video source is automatually routed to the monitor for you.

It has 1 digital co-ax connection (RCA jack) and 4 fiber-optic digital inputs, and they can be assigned to different sources. In my case, I used a digital cable box as the co-ax source, my JVC cd changer as optical 1, and my JVC DVD player as optical source 2.

Not only does this provide an all-digital input path for these digital sources, but it greatly cleans up the wiring at the back of the unit.

And it still has inputs for 2 VCRs, a tape player, a turntable, a video camera (front inputs) a CDR/minidisc player, and a USB audio connection!

2) If you have other JVC components, the Compu-Link interconnection is a godsend, especially the Text-Compu-Link output from the CD changer. This allows the CD changer to export its displays (normally confined to the little LED readout on the changer) to the TV, via the amp. Search for disks/tacks/artists on the TV screen! This revolutionized the use of the CD changer.

All the amplifier features can be accessed this way as well.

3) Performance is very good. This is a very clean and crisp amplifier - perhaps not audiophile-quality, but there is no noise or distortion that I could detect at reasonable volume levels. The surround processor automatically recognises Pro-Logic, Dolby Digital, and DTS input streams and does the appropriate thing with them. I moved up from a basic Pro-Logic (RF, Cen, LF, Rear) amplifier, and the difference in sound dynamics was amazing.

The only beefs I have are minor:

1) The remote is poorly designed. Prior JVC remotes have been ergonomically designed, with common fucntions (volume, channel, DVD cursor) larger and located in such a way as they could be operated by feel. This remote is a plain rectangular grid with all the buttons the same size. Luckily, JVC seems to have kept the same IR codes for the last 10 years, so older remotes with better ergonomics can still be used with this unit.

2) Setting the unit up can take some patience. the manual isn't bad, but it takes dilligence to get all the inputs assigned and working correctly, especially the digital inputs. Some behavior was not initially obvious - but it IS all documented, if you take the time to _carefully_ read the manual.

Highly recommended!

This is one of the best receivers I have ever owned. This model has all the features you are looking for at a reasonable price.

This item is worth every bit of pennies . The picture is so perfect , you might even want to touch the screen to see if the little people in there are real, until you realize "oh! my God" it's only tv. The VCR shows a razor sharp picture . I am telling you BUY THIS PRDUCT.

This JVC Combo TV/VCR is a really good unit. The picture is excellent. Tapes look great. We use this unit to show demonstration tapes on dog grooming and we have not been disappointed. The remote has everything you need. It's a quiet unit too. It's so quiet you can't tell if the tape is rewinding or not. I guess that's my only complaint! I highly recommend this unit. JVC still makes the best VCRs.

This bag is great, its rugged and it holds my camcorder and camera at once. A word of caution though be sure to check out the dimensions of the camera you are going to put in it. Just to make sure you have a good fit. This bag is better for light use family gatherings and stuff like that. If you are more adventurous
and like to take your camera on hiking and mountain climbing trips this bag may not be for you. It is durable but it will have minimal protection from the elements. Lowepro always make great quality products and even offer warranties on some of them. Hope I was helpful

I am very happy with this product. Holds my camera and more, safely. Highly recommend it!
