Product Description
The realism of a TV's image is strongly linked to its contrast ratio, and this plasma features a high contrast ratio of up to 10,000:1. Such a wide range from black to white means great depth and dimensionality with vibrant colors?and this plasma can display an incredible 29 billion colors for a superior picture. Deep blacks provide excellent shadow detail during dark scenes, while brilliant whites allow our plasmas to render bright scenes with vivid realism.
As an EDTV with an 852x480 screen resolution, this 42" (diagonal) magnificent widescreen TV delivers optimal performance of all currently available TV shows and DVD recordings. It has both NTSC analog and ATSC digital TV tuners. When used with an optional HDTV antenna, the ATSC tuner can receive free over-the-air widescreen HDTV shows. The plasma display is incapable of presenting those images at 720p or 1080i resolutions. In addition to A/V, S-Video and Component-Video connectors, this set also has an HDMI port. An HDMI connector accepts high-quality digital video and audio via the same thin cable, allowing you to run one cable from the source to the TV. 2 Front Speakers - 10 Watts power to each speaker - stereo sound Connectivity - HDMI Input 1; Analog Audio Input (for HDMI) 1; Composite Video Input 2; S-Video Input 2; Audio Input (for Video) 2; Component Video Input (Y, PB, PR) 2; Audio Input (for Component Video) 2; Composite Video Output 1; Audio Output 1; Digital Audio Output 1 Unit Dimensions With Stand (H x W x D) 30.1 x 42.0 x 12.6; Dimensions Without Stand (H x W x D) 27.6 x 42.0 x 3.8 / Unit Weight With Stand 68.3 lbs.
