The AV-36S33, for example, is equipped with built-in speakers capable of delivering rich, immersive sound. Many models also support various audio formats, allowing users to connect external sound systems, which enhances the viewing experience.

Connectivity options play a vital role, as JVC understood the need for versatility in connecting external devices. These models typically come with a range of inputs, including composite, S-Video, and RF connections. This flexibility made it easy for users to connect gaming consoles, DVD players, and other entertainment devices without hassle.

Another appealing feature is the inclusion of on-screen menus that provide users with easy access to settings and adjustments. This user-friendly interface ensures smooth navigation and makes it easy for viewers to customize their viewing experience according to personal preferences.

In summary, the JVC AV-36S33, AV-32S36, AV-32360, AV-36330, and AV-32320 models are notable for their excellent picture quality, solid audio performance, and a variety of connectivity options.
