I also found this article online, from DV magazine.
"Once dialed in, I was amazed by the picture quality on this monitor. For the purpose of comparison, I borrowed an eCinema DCM23 monitor and placed it side by side with a Sony BVM-D 24-inch HD CRT and the DT-V24L1D. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get the eCinema's blacks anywhere near the JVC LCD's and the Sony CRT's richness. I found this very surprising, considering the price difference between the units."
