The TV also excels from an audio perspective, with a front-fired, full-range stereo speaker system that provides excellent imaging while localizing the voices at the screen. Viewers will also appreciate the onscreen channel labeling, which lets the user customize the names of up to 70 channels (with up to six characters and three numerals each). The channel labels will appear on the screen for six seconds, then disappear. Parents, meanwhile, will delight in the KidPass parental control, which keeps teens and younger kids from watching too much TV. A parent merely determines how many hours of TV they want to allow per day (up to 16 hours), then enters the password. The KidPass function lets parents control the viewing habits of their children over a seven-day period--perfect when leaving the kids with the grandparents for a much-needed break.

Additional features include auto channel search and commercial skip; a multilingual onscreen display (in English, French, and Spanish); a programmable sleep timer; and front-panel A/V inputs for quickly connecting a game console or camcorder. The TV, which measures 20.75 by 19.75 by 19.25 inches (W x H x D), comes with a premium remote control with VCR and DVD remote options. It's also backed by RCA's one-year parts and 90-day labor warranty.
