LCD Full HD display 1920x1080p

This display has a resolution that is referred to as Full 
HD. With state-of-the-art LCD screen technology it has 
the full high-definition widescreen resolution of 1920 
x 1080p. This is the highest resolution that HD 
broadcast can transmit. It allows the best possible 
picture quality from any format of HD input signal. It 
produces brilliant flicker-free progressive scan 
pictures with optimum brightness and superb colors. 
This vibrant and sharp image will provide you with an 
enhanced viewing experience.

Integrated HDTV tuner

A built-in digital tuner receives and decodes ATSC 
off-air and unscrambled cable signals directly, so you 
can view digital high-definition TV programming 
without an additional set-up box.

Dolby Digital

Because Dolby Digital and DTS, the world's leading 
digital multi-channel audio standards, make use of the 
way the human ear naturally processes sound, you 
experience superb quality surround sound audio with 
realistic spatial cues.

Dynamic Contrast

Special picture processing technology dynamically 
and seamlessly delivers vibrant images in bright 
scenes or reproduces a deep blacks and accurate 
rendering of darker colors and shades in dark scenes. 
You get the ultimate LCD picture: stable and clear 
images with enriched color performance and excellent 
contrast.

Stereo sound system

A system that receives stereo broadcasts for high 
power performance with exciting and lifelike sound 
through dual speakers.

Multiple AV inputs plus 1080p

Multiple AV inputs are built-in connectors that 
accommodate all major video device signals: CVBS, 
S-video, component and HDMI (480i/p, 720p, 1080i 
and 1080p). Component and HDMI can even process 
the highest 1080p signal from any HD source 
including Blu-ray and HD DVD players, delivering 
maximum lines of resolution and the best image 
quality in the HDTV standard.

HDMI input

HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB 
connection from the source to the screen. By 
eliminating conversion to an analog signal, it delivers 
an unblemished image. The non-degraded signal 
reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI 
intelligently communicates the highest output 
resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is 
fully backward compatible with DVI sources but 
includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy 
protection.
