Amazon.com Product Description
Smaller than previous models and boasting an ever-sharper image, Toshiba's 26HL84 LCD television is stocked to the gills with life-simplifying features and sophisticated image enhancements. With minimal glare, no screen curvature, and no irritating high-frequency screen noise, the 26-inch set stands fully apart from its CRT counterparts. Set it on a table using the supplied stand or mount it on the wall using optional brackets for ultimate space efficiency.
The 1,366 x 768-resolution set boasts not only two ColorStream HD high-definition (up to 720p) component-video inputs, but also a Digital Visual Interface (DVI-HDTV) for a direct digital connection with an HD set-top box or HD satellite receiver (sold separately).
LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors and televisions, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (no screen flickering or radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT TVs), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life (with no risk of image burn-in), space savings, and light weight/easy positioning.
Toshiba's PixelPure proprietary digital video processing is a suite of eight different circuits that together create a consistently clear, deep, and accurate picture: 6.2 million pixel oversampling (for higher perceived resolution with decreased image distortion), Real Speed Progressive Scanning (which uses additional sampling points to create smoother diagonal lines), Magic Square Algorithm (for smooth and natural color gradation), Dynamic Contrast Enhancer (for higher perceived contrast and increased color saturation and purity), Super Real Transient and Small Signal Sharpness (for sharp transitions from dark to bright), Color Transient Improver (for sharp transitions on color changes without bleeding), and Color Detail Enhancer (to maintain fine image detail in color saturated areas).
A 3D Y/C (4 MB, 10-bit) digital comb filter with Vertical Contour Correction ensures sharp, clean pictures from RF (older VCR, laserdisc) and composite-video signals. Cinema Mode (3:2 pulldown switch) circuitry identifies original film-based content from DVDs, then reassembles the frame sequence to more accurately reproduce the original 24-frame-per-second material.
Other features include HD Window POP (picture-on-picture) with split-screen and 12-multiwindow viewing as well as PIP sound (which lets you watch and listen to two programs simultaneously, even HD sources); TheaterLink IR (through which you can operate your video components by pointing the remote at the TV screen, even if the components are hidden away); CableClear DNR+ digital noise reduction; individual audio/video settings by input type; sleep and wake timers; SurfLock; and a host of parental controls including GameTimer, channel lock, and video input lock.
Dual ColorStream HD component-video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) provide the ultimate picture quality from high-resolution component-video signals (as from compatible DVD players or satellite receivers). Two sets of rear AV inputs and a set of front AV inputs (all including S-video) foster easy connection with a camcorder or gaming console, and a rear audio output--choose from fixed- or variable-level feeds--lets you hook the set up with a surround receiver.
And the 10-watts-per-channel 26HL84 offers a little something--well, a lot of something--extra in the bass department: Toshiba's Sub-Bass System (SBS), which heightens the impact of low-frequency audio. Meanwhile, SRS WOW combines 3D Sound (simulated surround sound from any stereo audio) with TruBass (yet another low-frequency enhancement) and Focus (which clarifies voices). If that's not enough aural excitement, you can also enjoy two-channel simulated surround courtesy of Dolby Virtual Surround.
The 26HL84, which measures 27.19 by 20.19 by 5.06 inches (W x H x D) without the stand, is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
