Description:

Equally suitable as a living room set piece or a bedroom convenience, this 27-inch TV/DVD combo features Panasonic's PanaBlack picture tube, outputs for digital surround sound, and support for MP3 files and DVD-R discs.

The PV-27D52's PanaBlack picture tube is darker than conventional tubes, and the PanaBlack technology combats the picture-degrading effects of ambient light. The result is a picture with high contrast and accurate color reproduction. Its two-line digital comb filter minimizes dot crawl and cross-color interference.

The PV-27D52 features a high-quality DVD player that does double-duty as an audio CD player. In addition to playing conventional CDs, the set can play MP3 files from CD-R and CD-RW for hours of audio enjoyment. This combo unit can also play home-recorded MPEG2 video that's been saved on a DVD-R using a Panasonic DVD-Video recorder.

Additionally, the DVD player offers fast, smooth-motion scan (in five speeds up to 100x), picture zoom, and auto switching field/frame still. Depending on the content of the disc, you can select from up to eight language soundtracks, 32 subtitle languages, and multiple camera angles.

Home theater-ready, the PV-27D52 has an optical digital-audio output to help you enjoy surround sound audio. When it's connected to a Dolby Digital or DTS-decoding audio/video receiver and a six-channel speaker system, you'll enjoy exhilarating digital surround sound.

A front-panel audio/video input (with composite- and S-video) affords easy hookup of camcorders, gaming consoles, or other devices. The unit includes an earphone jack, a sleep timer, on timer, and wake-up alarm. Onscreen icons and front-panel cursor keys and menu control make setup and operation extremely simple. It also comes with built-in FM radio and a multi-brand tower remote.

Finally, Panasonic has set up the PV-27D52 with Ready-to-Play: as soon as you plug it in, the combo automatically sets its own clock and local TV channels.
