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.

Dual 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. With 2 HDMI inputs you can connect
multiple HD sources, for instance an HD settop box,
and a Blu-ray player.

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.

Coaxial Digital Audio SPDIF

An SPDIF coaxial cable is a highly reliable way of
connecting digital audio.

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.

3D combfilter

A 3D combfilter is a device that performs field-by-field
comparisons of the television image to accurately
separate the color from the black-and-white
information. It separates brightness and color signals
better in the 3D domain to eliminate cross-color,
cross-luminance and dot-crawl distortion - all of which
detract from your viewing pleasure.

Dolby Digital surround

Dolby Digital, the world's leading digital multi-channel
audio system, duplicates the way the human ear
processes sound human ear naturally processes
sound so you can experience superb quality surround
sound audio with realistic spatial cues.
