== Overview ==
The JVC AV-27S33 is a 27-inch CRT television released in 2002 as part of JVC's consumer television line. This model is identical to the AV-27330 in features but distinguished by its silver bezel design, offering a different aesthetic option for consumers.

== Features ==
* '''Component Video Input (YPbPr)''' - High-quality video connection for DVD players and gaming consoles
* '''S-Video Input''' - Enhanced video quality over composite
* '''Multiple Composite Inputs''' - Front and rear connections for convenience
* '''MTS Stereo with SAP''' - Multichannel Television Sound with Secondary Audio Programming
* '''BBE Sound Enhancement''' - Improved audio clarity and depth

{{CRT input|signal=RF|connector=F connector|count=1|location=rear|notes=75Ω VHF/UHF antenna/cable input}}

== RGB Mod Information ==
This model '''cannot be RGB modded''' due to its 1-chip chassis design. This is a hardware limitation that cannot be overcome. However, since the AV-27S33 already includes component video inputs (YPbPr), it can display high-quality video that is very close to RGB quality, making an RGB mod unnecessary for most users.

== Setup Tips ==
* If component video appears in black and white, access the setup menu and enable "component-in" for the appropriate input
* The V2 Component-In and V1 Component-In menu options allow configuration of component video for different inputs

== Service Information ==
This model shares a service manual with the AV-27320 and AV-27330. The FE chassis is used across these models with the primary difference being the silver bezel color on this S33 variant.
