Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

A mere 2 feet deep, Philips' 51-inch, high-definition projection television offers a massive image while occupying a minimum of floor space. And you'll be ready to enjoy seamless, detailed HDTV signals in all their glory: full 1080i resolution via a digital set-top box (not included). Progressive-scan DVD players and satellite receivers are also terrific source components for this set, which includes a wealth of picture-enhancing technologies.

Designed to meet the demands of curved CRT faceplates, Philips' 35-point convergence brings with it the accuracy of digital technology for flawless convergence of red, green, and blue electron guns and a superb picture with no colored haloes.

If a video image remains stationary, it can eventually burn a permanent after-image into the screen. Automatic Phosphor Aging Compensation (APAC) periodically shifts your television picture in increments that are tiny, but still large enough to blur image retention. Active Control performs continuous picture analysis and maintains control of Automatic Digital Noise Reduction and auto sharpness. A three-line digital comb filter gives you Improved chroma/luminance separation over standard 2-line glass comb filters for a difference you can really see.

Eye Fidelity gives you a choice between 2 different scanning techniques: progressive and interlaced scanning. Progressive scanning doubles the number of visible picture lines per field by displaying all picture frame lines at once, eliminating line flicker. Interlaced mode reduces annoying motion artifacts and helps smooth jagged lines sometimes seen on images of curved and angled surfaces.

The set's dual-tuner picture-in-picture lets you monitor one TV channel while simultaneously watching another. Its 10-watts-per-channel sound system offers both Virtual Dolby Surround and Incredible Surround, processing circuitry that produces the sensation of surround sound without the hassle of installing additional rear speakers. The set uses large, 4 x 6-inch stereo speakers and also features an auto volume limiter to minimize drastic level changes between, say, a TV program and its commercials.

Connections include 3 each composite- and S-video inputs, 2 component-video inputs (1 HD, 1 standard), and a DVI direct digital input for use with a compatible DTV set-top box or other DVI device. A set of audio/video outputs lets you integrate the set with your stereo or surround receiver, and a set of side-mounted AV inputs simplifies hookup of a camcorder, gaming console, or VCR.

The 51PW9363's protective screen filter helps prevent accidental damage to the delicate front lenticular screen.

Product Description

HDTV technology delivers exceptional picture quality and a real movie-viewing experience that makes television more dynamic, truer and compelling than anything you've ever seen before. Philips' goal has been to create modern classics that promise enjoyment and intuitive functionality before they're even turned on.Whether watching cable or a DVD movie, the optimum way to view movies through a home entertainment system is the way the director saw them. Which is wide. After all, why would you want to watch a film in a format that cuts large chunks of detail out? Pan-and-scan is a thing of the past with Philips Widescreen. Because now cinema is presented, in a 16: 9 aspect ratio, to conform with the natural horizontal human field of vision. Widescreen viewing provides consumers with a home cinema viewing experience that comes as close as possible to the director's vision without compromising the original content of the film.Philips is setting new standards for the convergence of technology and design. You'll notice that sleek, sophisticated exteriors can actually seduce customers. This is because Philips' award-winning industrial design lifts the PTV to new heights of elegance. Its silver finish and refined design whisper urban origins. Yet it fits smoothly into interior d?cor like nothing else on the market, and is light-years away from the awkward "black box" syndrome.
