REGZA - Premium LCD TV. All REGZA models combine the fast CineSpeed
LCD panel, with industry leading PixelPure Hi-bit 12-bit digital video processing,
for the best possible picture quality. These models also have beautiful new black
cabinetry, and built-in ATSC/QAM digital tuning.
PixelPure(TM) Hi-Bit 12-Bit Digital Video Processing - Using 12-bit picture
processing (up to 14 bit internally), can create 4096 steps of gradation (steps
between the whitest white, to the blackest black), and will also incorporate
improvements in areas such as: real speed progressive scanning, video noise
reduction, sharpness, and gamma control to set a new standard for picture
quality.
Native Mode - Unlike most TVs, this advanced system eliminates any
unnecessary scaling or overscanning of 1920 x 1080 signals, and displays all of
the pixels on the screen for the purest possible picture.
HD Window(TM) POP - For the convenience of monitoring two sources at once,
the set allows side by side viewing of two sources.
Audio
SoundStrip(TM) Speaker System - A thin line speaker system with enhanced
dynamic range yields big speaker sound in a new cabinet.
SRS(R)WOW(TM) (3D, TruBass(R), FOCUS(R)) - SRS(R) WOW(TM) technology takes the
performance of the television`s existing speakers to a whole new level, offering
superior sound quality with no additional speakers required. SRS WOW consists
of three separate sound-expanding systems which work together to extract
"buried" highs and lows. The three systems are SRS 3D, TruBass, and FOCUS.
SRS 3D creates a three-dimensional sound field from just two speakers, thus
giving the listener the feeling of hearing a multi-speaker surround sound system.
Virtual Dolby(R) Digital and SRS TruSurround 5.1 - To make the most of today's
demanding digital soundtracks, Toshiba incorporates this system to maximize the
sound of our SoundStrip 2-Way Speaker System.
StableSound(R) - reduces unwanted volume fluctuations (eg. during commercials)
by keeping volume within set levels, for easier listening.
