Key Technologies
7th Generation Sony® LCD Panel
The Sony® S-Series LCD TVs use 7th generation Sony LCD panels for truly matchless
image quality and performance. These panels are produced from one of the world’s biggest mother glass to efficiently create
large, high quality panels. The PVA high definition display (1366 x 768) that is used offers an astounding 178 degree viewing
angle, very fast response times (8 ms total rise and fall time) and a spectacular contrast ratio.
BRAVIA Engine™ Full Digital Video Processor
BRAVIA™ S-Series Digital LCD televisions use Sony's BRAVIA Engine™ full
digital video processor for crisp and clear images. Several special picture enhancement technologies are integrated into the
processor to create better gradations and details, enhance contrast, dynamically improve color, and reduce image flicker.
HDMI™ and PC Connectivity
Designed for maximum versatility, Sony’s S-Series Digital LCD TV line is equipped with a
comprehensive range of input interfaces. The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry-supported,
uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI technology supports enhanced or High Definition video, together with
multi-channel digital audio to provide matchless image and sound reproduction. The PCD input (HD-15-pin) offers easy
connection to your PC, allowing you to use your high resolution BRAVIA S-Series Digital TV as a computer monitor.
Light Sensor
Intelligently adjusts the screen brightness to match the ambient light in a room, ensuring a comfortable
viewing experience. In a dim room for example the screen automatically reduces brightness making it much more comfortable
for viewing.
SRS® TruSurround® XT
Building on the success of TruSurround technology, TruSurround XT audio adds three new audio
enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience. Dialog Clarity ? brings movie dialog into
“ focus” during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and crisper. TruBass creates
incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low bass tones that are far beyond the
physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself. And WOW widens the soundstage by processing standard two-
channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo
audio over a two-speaker system.
Freeze Function
Sony’s Freeze Function is a useful function that allows you to temporarily freeze the picture in a separate
screen while the programming continues to display. This comes in handy when you want to copy a recipe, phone number,
etc. that flashes too quickly across your screen. Simply touch the “ Freeze” button on the remote control and copy the details
down at your convenience.
