HD ReSoLuTion

High denition television is the highest performance segment of the DTV system used in the US. It’s a wide screen, high-resolution video
image, coupled with multi-channel, compact-disc-quality sound.

XD enGine

Six distinct processes contribute to picture improvement. LG’s XD Engine® takes the low resolution of analog signals to near HD levels
by improving brightness, contrast, detail and enhancing color as well as reducing signal noise.

FLuiD MoTion

The high performance of plasma panels allows you to enjoy smoother, clearer motion with all types of programming such as sports and action
movies. The moving picture resolution give the impression of performance of up to 3x the panels actual refresh rate.

AV MoDe

LG HDTVs include 3 A/V Modes, preset to optimize picture and sound settings based on “Cinema”, “Sports” or “Game” content which can be
easily set with a convenient button on the remote control.
