TECHNOLOGY
& BENEFITS
VIDEO
TALEN™5 720p DLP®Engine - Incorporates 5th generation DLP technolo-
gy from Texas Instruments for our best 720p picture yet.
Radiance 150™Hi-Bright Lamp with Quick Restart™- This high quality
lamp is 25% brighter, for increased brightness without losing contrast. Quick
Restart means that this great picture is only a moment away.
PixelPure™Hi-Bit 12-Bit Digital Video Processing - Using 12-bit picture
processing (up to 14 bit internally!), We can create 4096 steps of gradation
(steps between the whitest white, to the blackest black). That's an improve-
ment of 16X from our 2005 sets, and will also incorporate improvements in
areas such as: real speed progressive scanning, video noise reduction,
sharpness, and gamma control to set a new standard for picture quality.
Four Step Dynamic Contrast - Allows the user to customize the picture
based on such factors as source material and ambient lighting conditions.
AUDIO
Scoop Cabinetry Design with SoundStrip™Speaker System - Uses a
thin-line speaker system with enhanced dynamic range yields big speaker
sound in a new cabinet that produces a 50" DLP that has greatly reduced
height and width.
StableSound®-Reduces unwanted volume fluctuations (eg. during commer-
cials) by keeping volume within set levels, for easier listening.
SRS®WOW™ (3D, TruBass®, FOCUS®)- SRS®WOW™ technology takes
the performance of the television’s existing speakers to a whole new level,
offering superior sound quality with no additional speakers required. SRS
WOW consists of three separate sound-expanding systems which work
together to extract “buried” highs and lows. The three systems are SRS 3D,
TruBass, and FOCUS. SRS 3D creates a three-dimensional sound field from
just two speakers, thus giving the listener the feeling of hearing a multi-
speaker surround sound system.
CONVENIENCE
ATSC/QAM/NTSC Tuner with CableCARD™Slot - Enables tuning of off-air,
unscrambled, and scrambled (using cable company provided CableCARD™)

evision shows to view or record along with the supplied IR blaster, greatly

home network, to your library of JPEG and MP3 files using only the TVs
