Perfect HDTV,
We reviewed the other (nearly identical) model on our show in March and I liked it so much I decided to buy one. I love Amazon.com, that’s why the review is also posted here. When I got mine, I was overjoyed. You can check out the full review of the FN model at htguys.com, but here’s the conclusion:
What we liked
* Awesome HD picture
* Amazing black levels
* Great, real color
* Excellent detail
* Two HDMI inputs
* Price
What we disliked
* Remote control
* Menu system
* Input switching with the factory remote
Conclusion
The JVC HD-61FN97 is an excellent value. It looks great, does a wonderful job with HD content, a great job with DVDs and a pretty good job with standard definition TV. Blacks are good, contrast is solid, colors are excellent and detail is vivid. We try to look for great values to help you (and us for that matter) get a little more out of each hard earned dollar. You’d be hard pressed to find a better looking 61″ TV at its price. It really helps bring the big screen home.

Simply THE best regardless of price.,
I’ve owned this display now for about 3 months. Simply put; I could not be happier. The picture is absolutely stunning and flawless. When watching Discovery HD on my DirecTV HD receiver; you are there! At the time of this writing Discovery HD is about 3 weeks into their “Planet Earth” series and to see the beauty of this incredible program on this display is quite frankly mind-boggling. Even the sound on the internal speakers which I only use occasionaly is great for internal TV speakers. The blue light on the front that some seem to be a little disturbed about that it could distract them is not distracting to me at all, but if it distracts you, it can be dimmed or turned off completely; so that is not an issue. The fan is as quiet as you’re going to get and can only barely be heard with the volume completely down, and the wife and I sit only about 7 1/2 feet away.
I was offered a choice at the store where I buy of getting the 60″ Sony, the 61″ Samsung or the 61″ JVC all 1080p displays and all at the exact same price…The JVC was in my opinion the hands down winner in picture quality. That said, I’m sure either of the other 2 displays would also make pretty much anyone happy.
In any case, trust me…with this display, and my Parasound pre/pro and amps, Aerial (FL, FR, and center) and Energy (4 rear channels) speakers, 2 15″ DefTech subs all set up in a 7.2 configuration…As my wife now says: The theatres are so inferior. Ya gotta love it!
I HIGHLY recommend this display to even the most discerning videophile.
