Plasma panel, 1024 x 768p

This state-of-the-art plasma screen technology gives 
you widescreen HD resolution of up to 1024 x 768 
pixels. 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.

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.

Multiple AV inputs

Multiple AV inputs accommodate a variety of format 
choices in connecting video and audio devices (480i/
p, 720p, 1080i).

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.

Smart picture & Smart sound

Smart picture and Smart sound presets are optimized 
settings for all your favorite types of programs, various 
display and audio modes that are directly accessed 
through a single key on the remote control.

Virtual Dolby surround

Virtual Dolby Surround is a processing technology for 
enhancing surround sound effects. It which create the 
sensation of Dolby Pro Logic without the necessity of 
additional rear speakers. You become totally 
immersed in your television experience.

Coaxial Digital Audio SPDIF

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