Multitask in your home office with the 20-inch Astar LTV-2001 LCD flat panel TV, which can also double as a PC monitor. The LTV-2001 features sleekly modern lines and a table stand, and it also includes wall-mounting hardware. It offers vibrantly colorful imagery from both the built-in, 181-channel NTSC TV tuner and computer sources, and great sound from two side-mounted speakers that provide 5 watts per channel (10 watts total power).

(The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) Other features include support for 480p enhanced definition television (EDTV), a sleep timer, multiple-language on-screen display, V-Chip parental controls, closed captioning, MTS/SAP stereo output, and auto power shutdown.

Amazon.com Product Description
Whether you need a high-quality monitor for your PC or you just want to relax in the bedroom with a good DVD, the Astar LTV-2001 20-inch LCD TV performs the task with style. The TV's defining feature is its flat-panel LCD screen, which is significantly brighter and crisper than traditional tube TVs, meaning you don't have to turn down the lights to view the screen clearly. Plus, you can watch movies or shows from virtually anywhere in the room thanks to the TV's wide 160-degree viewing angle. And thanks to the average lifespan of most LCD TVs (around 60,000 hours), the TV will far outlast most of its competition.

The LTV-2001 also offers such video essentials as a 4:3 aspect ratio for standard TV programming, an 800 x 600 pixel resolution, a speedy 16 millisecond video response rate, a 450 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating, and a 500:1 contrast ratio (the higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light). The functions combine to deliver vibrantly colorful images through both the built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner and computer sources (the monitor includes a VGA PC input).

Additional features include support for 480p enhanced definition programming (EDTV), a sleep timer, a multi-language onscreen display, V-Chip parental controls, MTS/SAP stereo output, and auto power shutdown. And, of course, the LTV-2001 sports a host of connection jacks, including two component video inputs, two composite inputs, an S-video input, a PC audio output, and an RF input.

Finally, the TV supports immersive sound through its pair of side-mounted speakers (5 watts x 2). The LTV-2001, which measures 27 by 17 by 3 inches (W x H x D), comes with both a table stand that adds an extra 2 inches of height and 5 inches of depth and full hardware for wall mounting. It's also backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

Customer Reviews

Great TV
I got this TV a few months back, when it was priced lower. Would still buy it at the current price.
The TV itself is a great value, ALL METAL construction, everything is cast aluminum and glass. Just the back panel is plastic! Picture is great, though only 420p, and perfect for a bedroom. Only complaint is that my Tivo remote does not work on it, so there are two remotes in my bedroom. So that said, if you are on the fence about this TV, I like it and it is a good buy compared to a lot others.

One star - One year
Died after one year - ABSOLUTELY no luck getting hold of Astar service for any help... Very disappointed, because until it died I thought it was a nice unit. Would be willing to rate higher IF Astar provided any acceptable level of service.

Works well
This product was easy to set up and use. It does not take up a lot of space and is very convenient in my small home. The stereos deliver wonderful sounds. The only small problem is that the images are blurry sometimes, especially when you are near the screen. Color contrast works well. Overall, I am very pleased with this TV.
