7th Generation Sony® LCD Panel
The Sony® BRAVIA® XBR® series uses the world’s first 7th generation Sony LCD panel for truly matchless image quality and performance. Specially crafted at the S-LCD plant, these panels are produced from the world’s biggest mother glass to efficiently create large, high quality panels. The 1 Mega Pixel S-PVA high definition display (1366 x 768) that is used offers an astounding 178 degree viewing angle, very fast response times (8 ms total rise and fall time) and a spectacular contrast ratio.
WEGA GATE® User Guide
Explore and navigate your Sony “BRAVIA” television effortlessly with the WEGA GATE user guide. You can easily change your settings or access your favorite TV channels and external inputs. Simply touch the WEGA GATE button on the remote control to activate the comprehensive graphic menu. Your eyes remain on the screen instead of searching in the dark for tiny buttons on the remote control.
WEGA Engine™
Because of the special demands HDTV places on signal quality a new generation of Sony’s exclusive WEGA Engine™ advanced picture quality system has evolved. Two innovative digital imaging processes have been added to improve overall picture quality. A High Contrast Image processor dynamically detects the histogram of each frame and instantly applies the ideal contrast level for crisper images. And the Natural High Density Picture image processor reduces noise elements by intelligently separating the noise from the video signal for a purer more detailed picture. Enjoy a stunning display of realistic images, amazing detail and sharpness, reduced noise and enhanced clarity with improved depth and contrast.
SRS® TruSurround® XT
Building on the success of TruSurround technology, TruSurround XT audio adds three new audio enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience. Dialog Clarity - brings movie dialog into “focus” during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and crisper. TruBass creates incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low bass tones that are far beyond the physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself. And WOW widens the soundstage by processing standard two-channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo audio over a two-speaker system.
WCG-CCFL (Wide Color Gamut-Cold Cathode Fluorescent Light)
Sony brings decades of television expertise and experience to LCD with a revolutionary backlight - WCG-CCFL. New spectrum phosphors have been developed exclusively by Sony to deliver a very wide color gamut that exceeds the color gamut of ordinary CCFL backlights and produces true reds, vivid greens and vibrant blues. Images are reproduced with enhanced vibrancy and intensity resulting in an even greater sense of realism.
HDMI™ and PC Connectivity
Designed for maximum versatility, Sony’s BRAVIA® XBR® line is equipped with a comprehensive range of input interfaces. The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI technology supports enhanced or High Definition video, together with multi-channel digital audio to provide matchless image and sound reproduction. The PCD input (HD-15-pin) offers easy connection to your PC, allowing you to use your high resolution Grand WEGA XBR TV as a computer monitor
