Note to the CATV Installer

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Operate the TV only on 120 V AC.

One blade of the power plug is wider than the other for safety purposes and will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.

If any liquid or solid object falls into the TV, unplug it and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it further.

CAUTION

When using TV games, computers, and similar products with your TV, keep the brightness and contrast functions at low settings. If a fixed (non-moving) pattern is left on the screen for long periods of time at a high brightness or contrast setting, the image can be permanently imprinted onto the screen. Continuously watching the same channel can cause the imprint of station logos onto the TV screen. These types of imprints are not covered by your warranty because they are the results of misuse.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.

KV-27FS120 specifications

The Sony KV-27FS120 is a classic example of a CRT (cathode ray tube) television that was popular during the early 2000s. It combines vintage aesthetics with impressive technology for its time, delivering a viewing experience that many enthusiasts still appreciate today.

One of the standout features of the KV-27FS120 is its 27-inch screen size, which was considered generous for home entertainment setups in its era. The television utilizes a traditional CRT display, known for its deep blacks and excellent color reproduction. The screen's aspect ratio is 4:3, a common standard during its production, making it well-suited for viewing older television shows and standard VHS content.

The KV-27FS120 incorporates Sony's proprietary Trinitron technology, which enhances picture quality by utilizing a unique aperture grille design. This technology contributes to improved brightness, sharper images, and a wider color gamut compared to traditional CRT displays. Users often praised the television for its vivid colors and solid contrast, turning it into a preferred choice for watching movies and television series.

Additionally, the KV-27FS120 features Sony's Picture-in-Picture (PIP) functionality, enabling users to view two different programs simultaneously on one screen. This feature offers convenience for multitasking, allowing viewers to catch up on sports while following a show. The television is equipped with multiple inputs, including composite video, S-Video, and RF connections, ensuring compatibility with various devices such as VCRs, DVD players, and gaming consoles.

Sound quality is another strong point of the KV-27FS120, as it includes built-in stereo speakers that produce clear and balanced audio. The television also features a variety of audio modes to enhance the viewing experience, making it more immersive.

Despite the advancements in flat-panel technology, the Sony KV-27FS120 remains a beloved piece for collectors and nostalgic viewers. Its robust build, classic design, and excellent display quality make it a unique choice, and it holds a special place in the hearts of those who grew up during the CRT era. For many, the KV-27FS120 is not just a television; it represents an era of high-quality home entertainment.
