Description:
Affordable, stylish, and loaded with features, the 27A62 is a great TV to complement a DVD player or digital satellite receiver. The 27-inch set offers Toshiba's high-contrast FST Black picture tube and convenient dual-tuner picture-in-picture (PIP), so you can keep an eye on the game without missing your favorite show. The FST Black picture tube offers a flatter screen than Toshiba's popular Blackstripe tube, one that further reduces ambient light reflections and provides finer dot pitch and increased resolution. This tube increases the screen's viewing angle and improves linearity over standard tubes. A three-line digital comb filter further enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped Y-shirt). Advanced velocity-scan modulation also works to improve definition at picture edges, creating sharper images by slowing the CRT (cathode-ray tube) beam's horizontal scanning during demanding work--say, when rendering transitions from light to dark parts of an image--and speeding it up when scanning easily rendered sections, like broad dark areas. The set features stereo reception (with 2.5 watts per channel) and SAP (second audio program), which is often used to broadcast an alternate-language track. The 27A62 derives a heightened sense of stereo separation from the double-baffle speaker system. StableSound monitors audio levels between programs and commercials. A ColorStream component-video input provides the ultimate picture quality from interlaced component-video signals; standard composite-video inputs accommodate all DVD players and most other video sources. Included are two sets of rear AV inputs (one with S-video) as well as one set of front AV inputs for easy connection with a camcorder or gaming console. A rear AV output lets you hook up to a surround-sound receiver. The 27A62 also features GameTimer (which monitors the duration of viewing), V-chip parental controls, a sleep timer, and a glow-in-the-dark remote control that controls most manufacturers' VCRs in addition to the 27A62.
