Outfit your bedroom or den with a compact home theater setup while adding a little style in the process with the JVC EX-A10 executive DVD microsystem. The elegantly designed unit includes two diminutive components--a brushed aluminum receiver and matching DVD player--that occupy about the same space as a typical laptop computer. More importantly, the EX-A10 plays all the formats common to much larger systems, including DVD Video, DVD Audio, DVD-R/RW, CD, CD-R/RW, VCD, SVCD, and MP3/WMA files burned on a CD, while fitting easily on a bookshelf or desktop. All you need to complete the home theater setup is a TV.
What truly sets the EX-A10 apart, however, are its solid cherry-finished speakers, each of which features a solid wood speaker cone. Wood is an ideal speaker material, as its acoustic properties deliver a warm, natural sound. But it's also difficult to press wood sheets into cone shapes without cracking the wood. JVC overcame this problem with an unlikely solution: sake, or Japanese rice wine. JCV engineers discovered that when soaked in sake, a birch wood sheet becomes soft and pliable enough to press into a split-free speaker cone. As a result, each speaker houses a 3.19-inch wood cone mid/bass driver and a wood dome tweeter, which combine to deliver an inviting, realistic audio performance. Listeners can also remove the speakers' black, semi-transparent grilles to show off the birch wood material.
To ensure theater-like audio performance from such a small system, JVC included its Hybrid Feedback digital amplifier, a compact, highly efficient amp that generates high power output and low distortion levels. The system is also bi-amplified, with 30-watts-per-channel power driving the mid/bass speakers and 20 watts per channel driving the tweeters. A final audio enhancement stems from JVC's K2 and CC Converter technologies--also found in the company's top-end receivers--which are designed to improve the sound quality of both CDs and digital music files like MP3 and WMA.
Additional features include two-channel decoding of Dolby Digital and DTS surround signals, an AM/FM tuner with a clock and sleep timer (the alarm wakes to either a CD or the radio), and a full-function remote control. Plus, the EX-A10 includes several audio and video jacks, including both analog and optical digital audio inputs and component, S-video, and composite video outputs. Finally, the system carries a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

It is a pretty flat monitor. Not a bad choice........2001-05-24
As for this Samsung it used a Mitsubishi NF tube. In the 19inch flat monitor market this can be compared to the Sony trinitron tubes. Mitsubishi tubes have a less prominent damper wires (two wires that go horizontally across the screen that are visible) but Sony trinitron tubes have more flashy colors. In other words this monitor has is less colorful but could be less a distraction. But as I said each monitor is different. It's like a car, you can get a dud from the factory or you might get one that works fine. Over here in Korea they sell this monitor starting from 500$. US residents are lucky since there is so much competion prices have to be low unlike here where Korean companies have a virtual monopoly. It isn't worth 500$ but at low price it should be given some consideration.
Other monitors in the 19inch flat market that are similar are Sony G400, LG 195FT, and a few others. Samsung DF 19 inch flats are not really flat so they are inferior to Samsung NF's. But NF's may not be as focused clearly as DF's at high resolutions. It is best for the consumer to actually "see" the monitors before purchase.
A great monitor!.......2001-04-05
