Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Note: Toshiba 27AF44 27" Flat MTS TV is no longer being manufactured. You may want to consider purchasing the newer Toshiba 27AF45 27" Flat Screen TV (Silver) instead.

Toshiba's 27-inch flat-screen tube TV offers clean component-video inputs, front and rear AV connections, a 181-channel tuner, and several features to enhance picture quality, such as an Invar Shadow Mask, 3-line digital comb filter, and black level expander. The FST Pure Fine Pitch "purely flat" picture tube eliminates unwanted reflections that occur with conventional tube TVs. It also delivers a broader viewing angle along with the enhanced picture linearity necessary to produce accurate, lifelike images. An Invar Shadow Mask enhances color reproduction, and its 3-line digital comb filter with vertical contour correction provides more accurate processing of RF and composite-video signals for a sharp, clean picture.

A double-baffle speaker system (5 watts per channel) provides improved stereo sound reproduction without connecting additional speakers, while the StableSound system maintains TV volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal. MTS stereo with dbx allows for full stereo sound, as well as access to SAP (Secondary Audio Program) audio for bilingual or secondary audio tracks. In addition, the TV's onscreen display menus are available in English, Spanish, or French.

The 27AF44 features component-video, composite-video, and S-Video inputs on the rear of the unit, with additional front-panel AV for quick and easy connection of video games or a video camera. It also includes a headphone jack. It has a sleep timer, and both channel locks and video input source locks as well as V-Chip technology for parental control. Additional convenient features include channel labeling, a game timer, and last-channel return. What's in the Box
TV, universal remote control, batteries, user's manual.

5.0 out of 5 stars Has "BIG THEATER" appearance...., April 30, 2004

Gives a Big Theater appearance when used in the rather small living room of a modular home. As the manufacturer states: there is no glare such as conventional screens produce, and it does have an amazing viewing angle. Very easy setup to any other components. After owning most of the major brands, I recommend this product very highly. A great price too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent flat screen for the price, January 2, 2005

I bought my Toshiba a few days ago and I have no complaints. If you are looking for a good quality, mid-size flat screen, then this is the one for you. The picture quality is perfect (stay away from Panasonic whose picture seems to be too dark), and being able to switch to a 16:9 is a wonderful bonus. I use the TV's speakers and I think the sound quality is top of the line. You can adjust the Bass, Trebble, and balance, while turning on or off features like surround sound.

The television IS heavy but not out of the ordinary for its size. I didn't find it front heavy, it fit on my current television stand, and it is quite stable.

If you have questions about which 27" flat screen to buy, stop searching for answers. The Toshiba is the way to go.

I only have one negative comment about this newly released Toshiba design. When switching stations, I hear a "whump" in the first moment of sound. It seems like a dampening problem in the design. Probably only audiophiles will notice it, however. Other than that, I think it is an excellent buy for the money.
