Description:

Designed for maximum quality and versatility, Samsung's widescreen LTN1785W thin-film-resistor LCD TV comes with an internal 181-channel NTSC TV tuner and external input jacks so you can hook up and view nearly any home-entertainment source, from an HDTV receiver to a DVD player, satellite system, gaming console, or other component. And because it's fully digital, you can even use the set as a high-resolution PC monitor, taking full advantage of its PC picture-in-picture feature to keep an eye on your video source while you seek more information or write e-mail online.

This HDTV-ready set accepts not only the flicker-free progressive-scan output from your compatible DVD player, PVR, or gaming console, but also decoded 720p and 1080i high-definition signals from an external digital set-top box or satellite receiver. Its native image resolution, at 1,280 x 768, exceeds 720p resolution and is enhanced by a high (600:1) contrast ratio, an exceptional peak brightness of 450 candles/square meter, and wide (170 degrees vertical/horizontal) viewing angles so everyone watching can enjoy a clear view. Its lamp life is rated a 60,000 hours for years of entertainment.

The set sports stereo speakers with three watts audio power per channel, and WOW Surround is there to produce deep bass and spacious surround effects from just two speakers--even from monaural sources. For connections, you get a pair of high-definition component-video inputs and one each composite-video, S-video, and 15-pin D-Sub RGB video for your computer (with accompanying stereo analog RCA audio input). A headphone jack fosters private listening, and the set is stand or wall mountable with VESA standard mounting holes (the WMTL1700X/XAA mounting kit is optional).
