Description:

The AQUOS LC-20B2U is less than 3 inches deep and offers a 20-inch (diagonally measured) screen, as well as Sharp's proprietary LCD panel, giving it a higher contrast ratio and wider viewing angles than was previously possible. AQUOS monitors are characterized by bright, precise picture quality, a sleek design, bright picture, and Sharp's Black TFT technology. The LC-20B2U's high (430 cd/m2) brightness makes it one of the brightest available monitors, so it can be put anywhere--even near windows, doors, or other light sources--and the picture will remain vivid. And, with its 60,000-hour lamp life, Sharp's LCD backlight life is long enough to provide viewing pleasure for many years.

The 20-inch ASV panel is Sharp's proprietary design. The Black TFT-enhanced screen combines an antiglare treatment with a low-reflection coating to ensure brighter pictures and more vivid colors than conventional LCD displays under similar conditions. The monitor is compatible with NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video formats. A built-in 181-channel tuner lets you plug a cable TV right into the LC-20B2U and start watching, while its stellar 500:1 contrast ratio provides incredible images. Two speakers frame the unit on either side for stereo sound.

The image inverter steps in to flip the image upside-down to hang it in an unconventional manner, and the 170 x 170 degree viewing angles are so wide the monitor can be viewed from anywhere in the room. The included carry handle/table stand is the ultimate in convenience--carry the monitor easily from room to room or detach the one-piece stand for wall mounting. The monitor consumes 60 percent less power than comparably sized CRT direct-view televisions.
