Toshiba says that Image is Everything. Perhaps so, but with the 23HL85, Toshiba has combined the potentials of DTV imaging along with excellent sound and convenience to deliver an outstanding TV for you to enjoy. With up to 1366x768 resolution, the 23HL85 is ready to display true widescreen HDTV (optional tuner or CableTV service is required). In addition to being used as a TV, you can also use this as an analog display for your PC computer. Considering all the fine infotainment the web has to offer, it might actually be wise to add your PC to your home entertainment system and the 23HL85 helps make it so.

A great choice for smaller rooms, the 23-inch Toshiba 23HL85 LCD TV helps you save space while enjoying vibrantly colorful high-definition television programming. It features a built-in, 181-channel NTSC TV tuner for standard broadcasts, and can receive high-definition (ATSC) broadcasts from an optional HD tuner. The 23HL85 makes it easy to connect to brilliant imagery with its component and HDMI connections, and it can also double as a PC monitor. This set also offers Toshiba's exclusive HD Dynamic Contrast function, which provides a sharper, deeper image with rich colors and a more life-like image.

The 23HL85 has a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio--perfect for high-definition telecasts and DVD movies--1366 x 768-pixel resolution, 500 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating, and 500:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) It supports 720p (HDTV), 480p (EDTV), and 480i (SDTV) video formats. The GameTimer feature allows you to set the television to shut off after a specified period of time, and stay off until a lockout key code is entered. Other features include tri-lingual on-screen menus (English, French, Spanish), V-Chip parental controls, sleep timer, channel return, and channel labeling.

The HD Dynamic Contrast feature increases Contrast and Color Saturation to create deep, rich images, analyzing both the dark and bright areas of the picture, and separately optimizing the dynamic range in each area of the picture.

The 3D Y/C digital comb filter constantly analyzes the three dimensions of picture height, picture width, and picture changes-over-time, to reduce dramatically edge image artifacts while improving transition detail. The Digital Cinema progressive scan (3-2 inverse pulldown) function provides accurate, smooth film reproduction.

The 23HL85 has two stereo speakers that provide 5 watts of power per channel (for 10 watts of total power) and SRS WOW virtual surround sound. The StableSound feature maintains television volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal. This helps to eliminate the annoyance of normal program volume being followed immediately by extremely loud commercial messages or drastic volume fluctuations while changing channels. This TV offers the following video and audio connections:

• Composite AV (RCA) In: 1
• S-Video In: 1
• Component Video In (Y PB PR): 1
• HDMI In: 1
• RF In: 1
• VGA 15-Pin D-Sub: 1
• Headphone: 1
