Amazon.com Product Description
The sleek, perfectly flat exterior of JVC's 42-inch PD-42WV74 plasma TV belies its rich and varied feature set. An incredible 3,000:1 contrast ratio and features like DIST (Digital Image Scaling Technology) 480p ensure that the set's picture quality is nothing short of smooth, detailed, and strikingly vivid.
With its 853 x 480 native pixel resolution, the PD-42WV74 is an EDTV monitor, which means it takes you a step closer to high-definition TV than standard TVs. It's compatible with full HDTV signals, however: when used with a progressive-scan DVD player, high-resolution satellite receiver, or DTV set-top box, it will deliver seamless, razor-sharp images from your favorite movies and concert videos. An HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) enabled DVI input for a direct-digital connection with your HD source component.
With a plasma screen you get vivid colors like you've never seen before, extremely wide viewing angles (wider, even, than those of most LCD screens), and easy placement due to a plasma monitor's slim profile--the PD-42WV74 is a mere 4.25 inches deep, perfect for desk or wall mounting. (It comes with a matching pedestal stand for desk or table positioning.) Brightness tends to be extremely uniform across plasma screens, which are also impervious to the picture distortion and negative color balances that afflict CRT monitors when placed near lighting or sound systems.
The set's 16:9 aspect ratio is specially configured to match the dimensions of HDTV broadcasts and your favorite movies. Choose from panorama, cinema, full, and regular aspect modes, depending on your viewing. You also get JVC-exclusive digital four-point color-management circuitry and high-end Digital Super Detail (DSD) edge-correction circuitry. Selectable velocity scan modulation improves the definition at picture edges, creating sharper images by slowing the horizontal scanning during demanding work--say, when rendering transitions from light to dark parts of an image--and speeding it up when scanning easily rendered sections, like broad dark areas.
The PD-42WV74 also performs 3:2 pulldown detection using JVC's Natural Cinema feature. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; reverse 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.
Other technologies include White Character Correction circuitry, Auto VNR (video noise reduction), Digital Noise Clear circuitry, and black-level expansion. A choice of five video status modes (Theater, Dynamic, Game, Standard, and TheaterPro D6500K) let you tailor the image to your presentation and environment.
For viewing conveniences, you'll love the set's high-contrast, icon-based onscreen display, interactive plug-in menu, single-tuner split-screen PIP (with zoom, POP, and 12-channel multi-indexing), XDS channel ID display, XDS auto clock set, multi-function timer, sleep timer, 10-minute auto shut-off, parental controls (including front-panel lock, V-Chip, and channel guard), and hyper-scan high-speed channel changer with Return+.
And how does it sound? Just wait 'til you hear the set's unobtrusive stereo (left/right) speakers and built-in, bottom-ported subwoofer, all powered by a hefty 12 watts per channel x 3. Active Hyper Bass beefs up the set's low-end sound, BBE High Definition Audio improves speech intelligibility and restores the dynamic range of compressed musical passages, and Advanced HyperSurround simulates enveloping surround sound from any two speakers.
Connections include the above-mentioned DVI input, 2 auto-sensing HD component-video inputs, 3 S-video inputs, 4 composite-video-based AV inputs, and an RF input. The set comes with an outboard tuner box that houses most video connections and its cable-ready NTSC tuner, while the supplied EL-based (electro luminescence) illuminated universal remote operates the PD-42WV74 and most other home-entertainment components.
