Amazon.com Product Description

Philips Magnavox's 9P5531C 55-inch TV incorporates MagnaBrite lenses, 7- inch liquid-cooled-and-coupled picture tubes, and digital convergence technology for an enhanced picture with consistent edge-to-edge brightness, high contrast, and balanced color alignment. The wide-band amplifier extends the video bandwidth to 10 MHz for greater picture detail and up to 800 lines of horizontal resolution. The 181-channel tuner supports picture-in-picture viewing and trilingual (English, Spanish, and French) onscreen setup and programming.

Component-video inputs support high-resolution digital sources, such as DVD players and Internet set-top boxes, for superb color detail and purity. The TV also has a pair of audio-video jacks, two S-Video inputs, a video out, and two sets of fixed/variable audio outputs.

The 10-watt stereo surround system utilizes a pair of 4-by-6-inch full-range speakers, an MTS/SAP decoder, dbx noise reduction, bass boost, and individual bass, treble, and balance controls for personal listening preferences. True Surround and Incredible Stereo sound technologies let you experience full, three-dimensional audio. SmartSound keeps consistent volume levels between programs and commercials, and from one channel to another.

Convenient features include V-chip parental control, a sleep/alarm timer, closed captioning, and programmable scan tuning. A universal remote control (with batteries) is included.

A one-year warranty covers parts and labor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great set and picture for the money., January 16, 2001

By	Gary Grender "ggwhiner" (El Cajon, Ca. United States) - See all my reviews

I was a little leary of purchasing another projection TV as I owned a Mitsubishi 45 inch set back in 1986 and was not pleased with the side angle view, the problem repairs, nor the short life expectancy (3 1/2 yrs.) of that set. The low price of the Philips Magnavox 55" at first drew my attention, but when I saw the picture quality and side view (awesome), I was sold. The better the broadcast signal, the better the picture quality on this set. DVD's look awesome, animated broadcasts look especially impresive and the sound is an unexpected bonus. So far I have nothing but good to say about this set. If you purchase one, you will not be disappointed.

I bought one of these sets. It is awesome. For the price it beat all of the competition. The picture is crisp and clear and the sound quality from it's internal audio system is incredibly clear. This is a great television for anyone who wants a projection screen TV. I give it two thumbs up!! You won't be disappointed with this set.

5.0 out of 5 stars What Can I Say !!, January 6, 2001

By	Trevor Stacey (Perth Western Australia) - See all my reviews

I've just purchased the Philips 55PP9501 55" Wide Screen 100HZ Digital ready Rear projection TV. The Picture quality at 100HZ scan is so real that when there is a Water scene you want to reach out and dip your fingers in the water!. With the added benefit of a 100Watts Built in Sound System - I tell you I'm having trouble getting anything else done. My wife reckons it was the biggest mistake getting one as Now We do'nt go out as often. I just can't wait to get a DVD player to top it of. Highly recommended.
