An audio-video playback device in which a plane formed by the right sides of the device body and a plane formed by the right side of the monitor portion are on a substantially same plane, and the plane is substantially orthogonal to the rotation axis (R-R) of rotatably supporting portions. The center of gravity of the device body is located toward the right side, whereby the stable side-down setting of the device in the manner that the right sides ( R and R) face downward is realized. While, operation switches and the like are not disposed on the right sides, a user lying down can operate the device and watch natural display images and listen to natural sounds if the device is sidewards.
