Summary
Basic 9" color monitor from JVC, with a single composite video input and a mono speaker. It is the predecessor to the JVC TM-A9U, and was popular for CCTV applications.
Two other variants were produced. The TM-9U(CV) does not have an audio input or speaker. The TM-91SU added a 7-pin JVC style Y/C jack and a VTR input.

Notes
This series of JVC monitors uses a 9" viewable tube from Hitachi with a 76 degree deflection angle. Later models used 90 degree Panasonic & Chunghwa tubes that are not compatible.
It has been speculated that the JVC TM series uses some prefix and suffix letters to denote what features the monitor has:
- A ??
- H indicates monitor has a high-TVL M-class tube. For JVC this usually means > 750 TVL Chunghwa tubes.
- C indicates the monitor has one or more option card slots on the back for input expansion.
- G indicates global signal compatibility, which simply means the monitor supports both NTSC and PAL formats, as well as 120/240 volt AC input.
- SU indicates the monitor has multiple additional features for video production such as external sync input, support for 16:9 mode, underscan, blue only, and other front panel toggles. In some cases all of these features are present on the monitor while in other cases only one or two.
- CV may abbreviate "Color Video". Generally indicates the monitor is designed for CCTV applications (24/7 operation).
