LCD WXGA display, 1366 x 768p

This WXGA display with state-of-the-art LCD screen 

technology gives you widescreen HD resolution of 1366 

x 768p pixels. It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive 

scan pictures with optimum brightness and superb 

colours. This vibrant and sharp image will provide you 

with an enhanced viewing experience.

HD Ready

Enjoy the exceptional picture quality of a true High 

Definition TV signal and be fully prepared for HD sources 

like HDTV broadcast, Blu-ray DVD or HD-DVD. HD 

ready is a protected label that offers picture quality 

beyond that of progressive scan. It conforms to strict 

standards laid out by EICTA to offer a HD screen that 

displays the benefits of resolution and picture quality of a 

High Definition TV signal. It has a universal connection for 

both analogue YPbPr and uncompressed Digital 

connection of DVI or HDMI, supporting HDCP. It can 

display 720p and 1080i signals at 50 and 60Hz.

Digital Crystal Clear

Digital Crystal Clear is a package of picture innovations 

that digitally adjusts and optimizes picture quality to 

optimal contrast, colour and sharpness levels. It's like 

watching vivid cinema-like images.

Progressive Scan

Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the 

image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of 

sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, 

followed by the field with the even lines, both fields are 

written at one time. A full image is created 

instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a 

speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line 

structure.

Active C Light Sensor

Active Control is a unique and intelligent way of 

optimizing picture quality by measuring and analysing the 

incoming signal to automatically adjust picture quality 

settings. Active Control with Light Sensor uses a sensor to 

adjust the picture brightness depending on the room light 

conditions.

Virtual Dolby Surround

Virtual Dolby Surround is a processing technology for 

enhancing surround sound effects. It will create the 

sensation of Dolby Pro Logic without the necessity of 

additional rear speakers. You become totally immersed in 

your television experience.

Bypacked tabletop stand

A table-top stand with matching design is packed with the 

set.

HDMI input

HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection 

from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion 

to an analogue 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.
