LMD-230W LMD-170W
Multiformat Engine Unit
MEU-WX1
Sony unveils its impressive new lineup of elegant two-piece LCD monitors. Choose from the LMD-230W or LMD-170W LCD monitors, both of which use the power of the MEU-WX1 signal-processing Multiformat Engine.
Their innovative designs offer the perfect solution for a wide variety of professional applications. Thin, lightweight, and simple, the two LCD monitors provide outstanding installation flexibility.
And when integrated with the optional monitor stand, it is easy to adjust both height and tiltto achieve the optimum viewing angle. Based on the latest developments in image processing, such as new “X Algorithm” technology, these monitors provide outstanding natural images with a high level of brightness and contrast.
They accept a wide variety of signal formats such as analog RGB and HD, and computer signals from VGA to SXGA. Building on Sony’s successful PVM series, these all new 23–inch and 17-inch LCD monitors are designed to meet a wide range of picture-monitoring demands in professional applications such as broadcast stations, OB vehicles, post-production studios, and digital photo studios.
■ Superior Picture Performance
Excellent Brightness and Contrast
The LMD-230W and LMD-170W monitors utilize WXGA LCD panels to provide high-brightness and high-contrast images with natural color reproduction. Incorporating a color filter with broad color gamut, these monitors display outstanding natural images.
Interpolation Technology – X Algorithm
This new “X Algorithm” technology delivers impressive improvements in picture quality. Jaggy noise, which often occurs on the edge of moving objects in pictures, is effectively removed. Traditionally, standard-definition video signals are converted from interlace signals into progressive signals through the formation of a frame picture with two field pictures. This often results in jagged shape noise along the oblique direction of fast-moving objects. To overcome this, the “X Algorithm” technology detects motion and, through comparison of the oblique pixels above, below, and adjacent to the moving part, inserts a new line. This reproduces images smoothly, such as a fluttering flag with moving oblique lines. X Algorithm is especially effective for low-resolution images.

Wide Viewing Angle
The LCD panel has a wide viewing angle of 170 degrees, horizontally and vertically, enabling images to be viewed from various positions and angles.
AR-Coated Protection Panel
The LCD panel is protected from various types of damage by a highly durable protection panel. The panel has an anti-reflection (AR) coating with a high-transmission rate that reduces the effects of outside light.
