HDTV/3D TV News
For many, the perfect video entertainment system includes a perfect audio system – I agree. A lot of people think that what matters is a great television and they never think about audio quality. Well, be prepared for a whole new way of thinking. Today’s popular HDTVs usually feature a built-in 2-way, 2-channel speaker system so that you can at least hear the audio that accompanies your video picture. Mitsubishi’s LT46149, on the other hand, gives you the opportunity to experience your HDTV’s audio thanks to a 16-speaker, 5.1-channel built-in audio speaker.
Mounted along the bottom edge of the LT46149′s bezel, the integrated soundbar delivers an encompassing 5-channel surround sound effect by employing 16 individual 2W drivers. The advanced design and directivity patterns of this speaker arrangement let you experience a surround sound home theater effect without additional obtrusive speakers and cables. Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro Logic processing fuel this impressive, innovative HDTV audio system, whose low-frequency reproduction you can easily enhance by using the built-in variable subwoofer preout to hook up your powered subwoofer. The complete HDTV experience — 1080p LCD video and 5.1-channel audio.
Not only does the LT- 46149 sport a combined analog and digital tuner, making it easy to enjoy programming from both analog and digital sources, this Mitsubishi HDTV features a built-in CableCARD slot. All that you have to do to begin viewing digital-cable programming is insert a cable card.
Light-hold devices like DLP, LCD, and plasma HDTVs all have some degree of motion blurring in fast-moving images or videos. The LT 46149 LCD from Mitsubishi was designed with Smooth 120HZ technology, this LCD panel displays more fluid and natural fast-moving images using a super-fast 120Hz panel response time. Additionally, an UltraThin Frame design minimizes the size of the bezel so that your LT 46149 becomes a window onto the world of HD.
The LT46149 LCD flat panel from Mitsubishi offers full HD 1080p, delivering the highest pixel resolution (1920 x 1080) and most advanced image scanning (progressive scan) available. But, what’s more, this 46″ LCD takes two major additional steps toward assuring that you get the most out of so much high definition merriment. First you have the Tru1080p processing. This technology guarantees that all 1080p content — whether from Blu-ray Disc (HDMI), online content (IEEE 3194), or satellite (1080p broadcast) — is passed through with absolutely no down-conversion of the resolution. You enjoy a full and true HD video experience. Secondly, the Plush1080p. Because some HD content is formatted at 720p or 1080i, this source material needs to be reformatted to fit your new 1080p screen. Plush1080p performs a precise, accurate conversion of 720p and 1080i content so that it shows up with rich, clear detail on your LT46149.
The LT-46149 is capable of displaying billions of colors. What’s more, special features designed into the LT-46149 give you the control to customize these colors for optimal, lifelike video reproduction. The combination of x.v.Color and Deep Color allows the LT-46149′s screen to display such a large number of colors by expanding the supported color gamut and by broadening the color spectrum used to represent the graphical image data being sent to your screen.
Further, Deep Color allows for smooth transitions between color shades, thus eliminating color banding and other visual artifacts for a sharper, more lifelike image. Additionally, a 6-color processor enhances the LT-46149′s color capacity by producing brighter colors, a wider range of colors, and whiter whites. Finally, giving you the control to customize the image you see, the LT-46149 offers PerfectColor. A full color matrix, this technology lets you adjust the intensity of six separate colors independently of each other and separately for each of the TV’s inputs. You get the color you want for all your video sources.
The LT46149′s exclusive 4D Video Noise Reduction uses advanced algorithms to better identify video noise from fine detail and correct the signal rather than distort it. Video noise is caused by distortions in the video signal that make the picture look grainy or snowy. As signal resolutions improve with the introduction of DVD, digital cable/ satellite and HDTV, the loss of sharpness produced by most noise reduction circuits becomes more noticeable. Mitsubishi’s advanced 4D Video Noise Reduction corrects the image in four dimensions: horizontally, vertically, within each frame, and across multiple frames to provide an image that is crystal clear and extraordinarily detailed.
Because you don’t plan on using your new high definition LT 46149 to enjoy just one type of video, and because you might find yourself watching it at various times of day, Mitsubishi has designed this DLP with 4 video modes, letting you customize the TV’s performance. Choose between Gaming Mode and Natural Mode when switching between graphical video game images and live-action movies and television programs. If you’re sitting down to a matinee, use Brilliant and Bright modes to optimize panel performance in situations with high ambient light.
If there is any single thing that’s daunting about getting a new home theater system, it’s the setup. Well, the LT46149 from Mitsubishi makes it so easy. With ClearThought EasyConnect, setup and day-to-day use is simplified. During setup, this feature recognizes each input as it is plugged in, prompts you to name it, enters it into the Device Memory, and only displays inputs in use. Later navigation of your system will be a cinch.
Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, Mitsubishi’s LT46149 features four HDMI connections. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p.
Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format. Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI.
