JVC is perhaps best known in the TV world for LCoS-based projectors, but the company also has some impressive flat-panel LCDs. The last one reviewed in Sound & Vision, the 1080p-rez LT-46FN97, earned an S&V Certified and Recommended stamp. So I was more than ready to have a look at the new 47-inch LT-47X898. Two key features make X898 Series LCDs stand out against earlier JVC models: Clear Motion Drive II (CMD II) processing and In Plane Switching (IPS). CMD II combats LCD motion lag by displaying images at a 120-Hz refresh rate - double the speed of typical HDTVs - and it uses sophisticated motion interpolation to fill in the gaps between frames when displaying standard 60-Hz video sources. IPS, meanwhile, is a technology that causes the liquid-crystal molecules in the panel's cells (pixels) to rotate parallel to the screen surface when deflecting light from the set's fluorescent backlight. (In a standard LCD cell, liquid-crystal molecules twist in perpendicular formation in response to current from adjacent electrodes.) Without getting too techy here, the net effect of IPS is a greatly improved viewing angle, with no drop-off in contrast, brightness, or color saturation when you watch from off-center seats. The all-black 47X898 has an appealing, understated look. A thin, 11/2-inch gloss-black bezel surrounds the screen, and a slightly wider strip containing the set's speakers runs along its bottom. The TV comes with a matching stand, and various wall-mounts are available from JVC online. Basic controls are located on the TV's side, including buttons for power, volume, input selection, and menu browsing. Certified and Recommended stamp. So I was more than ready to have a look at the new 47-inch LT-47X898.
