Over the years XBR has stood for the best consumer TVs Sony has to offer and this year’s line-up is no exception. XBR televisions incorporate all of Sony’s latest technologies. Features like Motionflow 120Hz High Frame Rate Technology enable smoother motion when viewing movies or fast-action sports.
BRAVIA Engine PRO with Digital Reality Creation upconverts all interlaced and progressive video signals including HD signals directly to 1080p for amazing detail and sharpness.
Don’t let yourself be distracted by the stuff offered in place of real progress.
Conveniently enough, the Sony XBR4 offers 120Hz. They call their version Motionflow, which matters not at all. What matters is that it doubles the amount of frames from 60fps to 120fps and does it the right way by using real-time calculation of every single frame of video to create entire new frames of information. The results are spectacular.
The KDL46XBR4 features the BRAVIA Engine PRO full digital video processor, which came about as a result of Sony’s expertise and long heritage in bringing cutting-edge picture quality to consumer televisions. It contains intelligent picture enhancement technology that reduces unwanted digital artifacts and delivers superb clarity and detail along with vivid colors. Sony’s own Digital Reality Creation Multi-function v2.50 (DRC-MFv1) processor replaces the original SD signal with its HD equivalent.
The result of BRAVIA Engine EX processing is Picture quality that has texture and detail, deep and vibrant colors, along with excellent depth and contrast. Add to this the crisp details, outstanding contrast, eye popping colors, and dramatically reduced digital artifacts that DRC-MF circuitry is known for. And the best part of all is that this technology is user adjustable according to the video source. All of this helps define the reason why people want Sony TVs to begin with — unparalleled picture quality.
S-Force Front Surround is a virtual surround sound experience made possible using just two front speakers in the new XBR4 LCD TVs from Sony. Sony was able to create complex audio processing that delivers dynamic virtual surround sound without the need to bounce sound off walls and back to the listener.
Designed for maximum versatility, the KDL46XBR4 LCD TV 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 — and it’s all that, and more, packed into one cord. The KDL46XBR4 includes 3 HDMI inputs. The PC input (D-15 pin) offers easy connection to your PC, allowing you to use your new high resolution BRAVIA as a computer monitor. Using your HDMI cable will make the hair-pulling, face-clawing frustration of setting up electronic equipment a thing of the past.
Introducing BRAVIA Theatre Sync Technology. Theatre Sync reduces the hassle and time consuming job of powering up, changing the signal routing, and adjusting other functions to the simple push of one button. All you need to do is to connect Theatre Sync capable products to each other via one HDMI cable. The rest is easy. For instance, the One Push Play function requires you to touch the play button on the remote. Theatre Sync takes over from there.
