Overview
The JVC AV-2676 is a 26-inch color monitor/receiver built around JVC's S-Mark II chassis, which delivers 560 lines of horizontal resolution with composite video input.[1] The set features a 26-inch FS (Full Square) data-grade picture tube with a dot pitch of 0.795mm, designed to maximize the viewable image area with squarer corners that avoid loss of picture along the screen edges.[2]
The S-Mark II chassis incorporates JVC-developed chrominance ICs, a wide-band delay line, an improved CRT drive circuit using a cascade amplifier with two transistors, and a wideband comb filter for electronic separation of chroma and luminance components.[2] The AV-2676 includes an EE Auto function that automatically adjusts contrast, brightness, and color in response to ambient lighting conditions.[2]
Designed as a home AV system centerpiece, the AV-2676 provides three rear AV inputs plus a front-panel AV input with a "Through Out" bridged connection to rear INPUT 3.[2] A unified TV/VCR remote control operates both the television and compatible JVC VCRs.[2] The built-in 142-channel frequency synthesizer tuner with MTS/SAP decoder supports stereo and bilingual broadcasts, with dual RF antenna inputs for switching between two RF sources such as a regular antenna and a pay-TV decoder.[2]
Additional features include a sleep timer with up to three hours in ten-minute increments, three-color on-screen display, variable audio output, external speaker connectors, a headphone jack, tinted glass screen cover, an edger circuit for enhanced picture sharpness, and a skew switch for correcting distorted picture playback.[3][2]
The original MSRP was $1,099.[1]
