Description:

The Philips 37FD9954 37-inch HD-compatible plasma TV offers a number of clever and innovative features that distinguish it from similar TVs, including Digital Natural Motion processing, which calculates motion trajectories of moving picture elements and corrects jerky movement, and Active Control continuous picture analysis and control, which continuously monitors and analyzes such factors as color, contrast, and ambient light.

Digital CrystalClear processing offers luminance and color enhancements, including a comb filter, to produce a crisp and natural picture from any source. Auto Picture and Auto Sound modes offer timesaving presets to fit several typical scenarios.

The 37FD9954 can display full 1080i high-definition resolution. Its screen offers high contrast (1,000:1) and high brightness (1,000 cd/m2) as well as an anti-reflective coating to avoid glare. The unit does not contain a cooling fan, so there is no fan noise. The 160-degree viewing angle assures everyone in your audience of having a good seat.

The two-tuner, double-window picture-in-picture (PIP) lets you freeze-frame the image (of the main or PIP window) or review an instant replay of the last few seconds. In addition, it lets you position a single window freely or gives you several options for two windows. You can also listen to the PIP sound through the headphones while others listen to the main window's sound through the speakers. You can also zoom in using a cursor-moveable zoom function, while a AutoScreen Fit will fit programs of any aspect ratio to the size of the screen without apparent distortion.

The TV's integrated sound system comes with two built-in 13-watt speakers, which can serve as either stereo speakers or as the center channel when part of a surround-sound system. It offers digital signal processing, spatial-pseudo stereo, separate headphone volume, and five preset sound modes (movie, speech, music, personal, and multimedia) in addition to manual control. The system's onscreen graphical menus are available in English, Spanish, and French, and it can display closed captioning for the hearing impaired or silent viewing.

The 37FD9954 includes two HD component inputs for connection to a DVD player, as well as S-Video and composite-video connectors, a DVI-d (digital video interface) connector, and an RGB-VGA port for use as a computer monitor. A wall-mount bracket is included.
