Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Stylish, affordable, and amazingly compact, the Apex GT1417DV combo unit offers everything from DVD playback to digital surround-sound output, MP3 music playback, and compatibility with both JPEG and Kodak Picture CDs, so you can enjoy shots from your digital camera right in your living room--or kitchen, or bedroom, or any other space-constrained location.

The 14-inch TV uses a Pure Flat picture tube, which not only looks cool compared to a conventional, bulbous screen, but also provides a high-quality, high-contrast picture--partly owing to the screen's ability to reduce reflected ambient light. The GT1417DV's three-line comb filter further enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt).

The set gives you stereo audio from broadcast programming via Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS), which permits broadcasters to encode stereo audio within the video portion of TV programming signals. A rear AV output and a coaxial digital-audio output (for Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround sound) lets you hook the set up to a surround receiver.

DVD features include fast and slow forward motion, frame-by-frame advance, programmable sequencing, and picture zoom (2x, 4x). The set also features a trilingual onscreen display (English, Spanish, French), closed-caption display, V-Chip parental control, a sleep timer, auto-off, and a remote control.

What's in the Box
TV/DVD combo, remote control, remote batteries, and a user's manual.

5.0 out of 5 stars 3 stars for quality, 7 stars for value = 5 stars, April 24, 2004
By fair_deal_guy "BB" (Prior Lake, MN USA) - See all my reviews
  
The Apex GT1417DV is a terrific bargain. It meets all the criteria for a genuinely great deal (lots of features, good overall design, plenty of functionality), but it's got a few nits that keeps it from leading the class. First, the DVD player is only so-so. Loading time is noticably slower than a stand-alone unit, and reminds me of the DVD player in my PC in terms of startup time and performance. The TV set itself has a slightly soft picture, and the colors on my set lean a lot toward the reds--no matter how much I try to dial back the color shift using the built-in controls. The picture is bright, but the brightness actually causes an overall washed out effect. Reducing the brightness just a little from the factory preset level causes an immediate loss of detail and unacceptable flatness. On the plus side, the convenience of the TV/DVD combo form factor is exceptional. There are no cables to run (which can save you $20-$40 right there), no manuals to read, and no painful setup for the DVD player side of things.

Other than a couple of fairly small concerns, the overall performance of this combo set is good, especially when you factor in the price.

[On side note, I wish Apex would have spent a little more on the remote control; it feels decidedly cheap, the buttons are VERY small, and not all functions are well designed--the DVD controls in particular.]

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, April 3, 2004
By A Customer
This TV/DVD combo is perfect for any samll space. I put it in my boy's room and he just loves it. Remote and DVD are very simple to use. In fact my 4 year old can operate the set. Great looking picture to boot. If you decide to purchase, I am sure you will be very pleased.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS A GREAT LITTLE UNIT, March 31, 2004
By A Customer
This unit is great. The picture tube is basically flat and the dvd player in the unit does a great job. For the $$$, this little unit rocks.
