25" Stereo TV. Dbx noise reduction. Front A/V inputs. Optimum Contrast screen. Proof that it only takes a little money to buy a lot of happiness. Looking for quality picture and sound, convenient features and unsurpassed affordability? You've come to the right place. RCA Television models deliver the goods, providing a sharp, bright picture and rich sound to any room, along with remote control convenience and extras like auto color control, sleep timer and channel labeling. Of course the best extra of all: the quality and reliability of the RCA brand, a name trusted for generations.

A step above their budget line of sets, RCA's Entertainment Series had step-up features which could include higher fidelity inputs (beyond RF) and stereo speakers. "Optimum Contrast" means that the tube's faceplate is dark tinted.

Notes

A remote is needed to switch from the antenna input to the front AV input. If the set is unplugged it will default back to the antenna input.

Information listing the the service menu items and how to access it is detailed on a sticker on the inside of the back cover.

One user attempted an RGB mod but got ringing artifacts.
