Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Philips' compact 20PF8946 TFT LCD television brings you 20 diagonal inches of high-quality image and silver Euro style. Perfect for use just about anywhere--living rooms, dens, offices, bedrooms, kitchens, dorms, you name it--the TV offers a standard 4:3 aspect ratio (suited to full-screen viewing of most television broadcasts), high brightness (450 cd/m2), and high contrast (500:1), as well as an integrated TV tuner for off-air reception of all your favorite programs.

This is an EDTV display, which means it's a step closer to high-definition or HDTV than standard TVs. When used with a progressive-scan DVD player (or 480p-output DTV set-top box) you'll get seamless, razor-sharp images from your favorite movies and concert videos.

LCD technology allows screens to be thinner and televisions to be lighter and more energy-efficient than ever before. The result is television that not only fits on a wall, but fits in places conventional televisions cannot. The 20PF8946's comes outfitted with Digital Crystal Clear III technology, a suite of picture innovations including Dynamic Contrast, green/blue stretch, and a 3D digital comb filter. The comb filter removes blurred edges between colors and reduces dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt).

A feature called Active Control continually adjusts picture settings at over 60 times per second for all inputs, correcting both sharpness and noise reduction. Auto Picture lets you change--at the touch of a button--the picture settings (color, tint, contrast, etc.) for various types of programming, including sports, movies, multimedia (games), or weak signals.

Auto Sound allows you to select from 3 factory-set controls and a personal control that you set according to your preferences. Use the factory-set controls (voice, music, and theater) to enhance appropriate programs. Virtual Dolby surround simulates enveloping surround sound from any 2 speakers.

The set's 2 stereo speakers flank the screen, offering improved audio balance over earlier-generation Philips speakers, as well as patented technology using a hi-fi-like magnet system and unique speaker cones.

Inputs include 1 component-video (YPbPr/progressive-scan), 2 S-video, and 3 composite-video connections. Side-panel AV inputs accommodate a camcorder, gaming device, or VCR hookup, and a headphone output (minijack .125-inch) lets you listen in private.

What's in the Box
TV, stand, remote control, remote batteries, and a user's manual.
