Description:

The 26PW8402's 26-inch RealFlat, high-definition widescreen tube affords scintillating home cinema viewing when used with a progressive-scan DVD player or a DTV set-top box. Picture enhancements like line doubling with Eye Fidelity (480p/1050i) bring interlaced sources like VCRs and non-progressive-scanning DVD players into the digital realm, and a 2D Y/C comb filter further improves the quality of incoming interlaced video signals.

The set's RealFlat tube provides reflection- and distortion-free pictures for maximum viewing comfort, while the DAF (Dynamic Astigmatic Focus) CRT gun ensures reliably excellent quality. Crystal Clear III is a unique set of innovations including scan velocity modulation and Dynamic Contrast, together producing natural colors and a high level of detail.

Eye Fidelity gives you a choice between different line doubling and scanning techniques, progressive or interlaced, so you can reduce motion artifacts like jagged edges and stair stepping. A feature called Active Control continuously analyzes incoming signals and optimizes picture color, sharpness, contrast, and digital noise reduction 60 times per second.

Four rear-panel audio/video connections and 1 set of side AV inputs accommodate composite-video, S-video, and high-definition component-video (480p/1080i), with one set of composite-video-based AV inputs for feeding a DVR, VCR, or surround receiver.

The set pumps 10 watts RMS per channel into its twin speakers. If you're not using a surround speaker system at home, the set's Virtual Dolby Surround will simulate surround sound from any 2 speakers. A .125-inch headphone jack lets you listen in private.
