Looks like they are $300 at Walmart, so this isn't bad.

Apex 24" Pure Flat (Flat-Tube) TV @ Bestbuy.com

Has Component Video Inputs too.

If you or a friend have a membership at BJs wholesale club, pick up the 27" JVC AV-27F703 for $299.99. This is a 4:3 flatscreen TV, and has component and S-video in. It also has 16:9 Anamorphic DVD Mode. I bought one yesterday.

EDIT: Circuit City has it for $499.99. Do a search on 27F703

Wish there was a BJ's Warehouse in Washington.

Croak, Not to crap on your thread but the regulars at hometheaterforum do not seem to think too highly of the Apex TVS. Sam's Club does have a nice 27" flat screen AKAI TV for $379.44 (a lot pricier than $250 for the APEX)

hmm, I've actually been looking for a 24" for my game room. I've been thinking about Toshiba 24AF42 ~$330 or Sony KV24FV300 ~$450 :Q. However, this TV w/ component inputs seems like a bargain and it'd keep my significant other from b!&#!ng at me for spending more $$$ on the game room. Gonna drop by BB later tonight to pickup Matrix DVD and take a look at this TV. Thanks!

I have this TV, and picture quality is great. Can't beat it for the price, in my opinion.

Hey Chalput...is the bj's thing nationwide? I'm really interested in this...any more info you can provide would be sweeeet. Does this thing have any audio outputs (i hope yes) cause i have a decent home theater setup.

I have the basic mono 24 inch Apex APX 2402 and it's a nice basic set for the bedroom. It was purchased from Circuit City for $149.00. In my opinion this set is good enough if you just want something for your viewing in bed or for your kid's room. Has 3 A/V inputs and 1 SVHS input. If you have a Stereo VHS or DVD player, just add an additional surround sound speakers or receiver for that 5.1 sound or DTS sound. The TV is flat compared to comparable RCA models.

Does 4:3 mean its a widescreen tv? Also...are bj's deals usually nationwide...cause if so...I might be going to the one around here tomorrow!

 

[Wag]

16:9 is widescreen.

 

[kindest]

tempting
iam in the market for a 27 inch flat screen ~400$ limit.
could pick that up and spend 150 on hookers..

My local WM still carries Apex 27" flat screens for $250.00

I have seen the JVC TV's at both the BJs stores in Stoneham, MA and Salem, NH. Not sure about nationwide. Might not be a bad idea to call or swing by if you have a BJs club nearby. Yes, it does have fixed level audio outputs.

Hey chalput...what exactly does the anormorphic mode do? does it ONLY squish the picture?

From the JVC manual
16:9 Mode
This adjusts the dimensions of the film or movie you are watching so that the image doesn't look stretched or squashed together

I have not had the time to play around with the TV as yet

For an indepth explanation on anamorphic go here

If you have a Fry's near you, check the mid-week "One Day Only" ads.

They advertise many "loss leader" TV's at amazing prices.

Last week, for instance, I bought a Consumer's Digest "Editor's Choice" Samsung 32" w/ component video, 3comb-filter TV for $199. It's great for my bedroom............NOTHING can match such a price on a 32 incher!

Boy does the Gamecube (w/ wireless controller) look great on S-video with this TV!
