The '''JVC AV-27D304''' is a 27-inch CRT television manufactured by JVC as part of their D-Series lineup. It shares the FE2 chassis with the AV-27430 series and offers similar picture quality and features with a different model designation.
== Overview ==
The AV-27D304 was positioned as a mid-range model in JVC's D-Series lineup. It uses the same FE2 chassis as the 30 Series models (AV-27430/432) and offers identical technical specifications and picture quality. The main differences are in the model designation, remote control included, and it features dual S-Video inputs compared to the single S-Video on the D104. This model has different dimensions compared to the AV-27430/432 models despite sharing the same chassis.
== Features ==
* Dark-tinted picture tube for high contrast viewing
* Game mode functionality
* Interactive plug-in menu for initial setup
* MTS stereo with SAP (Second Audio Program)
* 3-line digital comb filter for enhanced resolution
* Automatic degaussing on power-on
* Stereo speakers (5x9cm dual speakers)
* V-Chip parental control
* XDS (Extended Data Service) support for auto clock setting
* BBE high definition audio
* Closed Caption support
* Multiple video status modes (THEATER, SPORTS, GAME)
* Hyper scan technology
== Technical Specifications ==
* '''Horizontal Scan Range:''' 15 kHz
* '''Vertical Scan Range:''' 60 Hz
* '''Native Resolutions:''' 240p, 480i
* '''Deflection:''' 111°
* '''Power Consumption:''' 105 Watts
* '''High Voltage:''' 28kV ± 1.3kV (at zero beam current)
* '''Audio Output:''' 1.2W + 1.2W
* '''Sound System:''' BTSC System (Multi Channel Sound/MTS Stereo)
