REGZA

- Premium LCD TV. All REGZA models combine the fast CineSpeed

LCD panel, with industry leading PixelPure Hi-bit 12-bit digital video process-
ing, for the best possible picture quality. These models also have beautiful
new black cabinetry, and built-in ATSC/QAM digital tuning

.

PixelPure™ Hi-Bit 12-Bit Digital Video Processing

- using 12-bit 

picture processing (up to 14 bit internally) can create 4096 steps of 
gradation (steps between the whitest white, to the blackest black), and will
also incorporate improvements in areas such as: real speed progressive
scanning, video noise reduction, sharpness, and gamma control to set a new
standard for picture quality.

Native Mode

unnecessary scaling or overscanning of 1920 x 1080 signals, and displays all
of the pixels on the screen for the purest possible picture.

3D Colormaster Color Management System 

- Allows precise control of the

hue, saturation, and brightness for 6 individual colors.

WOW™ (3D, TruBass

®

, FOCUS

®

)

- SRS® WOW™ technology takes

the performance of the television’s existing speakers to a whole new level,
offering superior sound quality with no additional speakers required. SRS
WOW consists of three separate sound-expanding systems which work
together to extract “buried” highs and lows. The three systems are SRS 3D,
TruBass, and FOCUS. SRS 3D creates a three-dimensional sound field from
just two speakers, thus giving the listener the feeling of hearing a multi-
speaker surround sound system.

To make the most of

today's demanding digital soundtracks, Toshiba incorporates this system to
maximize the sound of our SoundStrip 2-Way Speaker System.

commercials) by keeping volume within set levels, for easier listening.
