Description:

Brimming with high-tech features, Toshiba's 46H83 widescreen projection set is ready to render vivid, smooth, and detailed video signals from DVD players, digital TV set-top boxes, digital satellite systems, cable television boxes--you name it. Heading the great features is CrystalScan HDSC, which converts all 480i and 480p signals (as from progressive-scan DVD players and DTV set-top boxes) to high-definition 1080i. This significantly reduces jagged-line artifacts for a smooth, natural image. Selectable 540p, for those who want to maintain a progressive-scan image from a progressive-scan source, is an option in the onscreen menu.

HD Window dual-tuner POP (picture-on-picture) with PIP (picture-in-picture) sound grant PIP functions regardless of your input source. TruView combines the following picture enhancements: black-level expansion, fine white, flesh-tone correction, and color detail enhancer, automatically reproducing accurate pictures with true colors.

A stellar 3D Y/C (4 MB, 10-bit) digital comb filter with Vertical Contour Correction provides accurate processing of RF and composite-video signals for a sharp, clean picture. This high-end filter significantly reduces detail noise, seen as shimmering or flickering, in complex or intricately detailed scenes. CableClear digital noise-reduction circuitry optimizes poor NTSC signals from antenna or cable.

The set's DVI-HDTV input allows a direct digital connection with a DTV set-top box or receiver, while dual ColorStream HD component-video inputs provide the ultimate picture quality from high-definition analog component-video signals (as from DTV receivers, satellite receivers, and progressive-scan DVD players).

DFine high-speed velocity-scan modulation improves contrast and overall picture sharpness by changing the speed of the electron beam as it transitions between bright and dark areas of the picture. HD Dynamic Contrast continually analyzes picture information and sharpens and deepens those parts of the picture with the most detailed information.

Cinema Mode (3:2 pull-down switch) identifies original film-based content from DVDs, then reassembles the frame sequence to more accurately reproduce a film's original 24-frame-per-second material, obviating distortions caused by DVD's 30 fps rate. Further, the TouchFocus automatic digital convergence system creates perfect corner-to-corner focus at the press of a button. Manual override adjustments are available.

For audio, the 46H83 offers SRS WOW, combining SRS 3D (which creates a wide, three-dimensional sound field), TruBass (which boosts bass-frequency perception for more dramatic low-frequency effects), and Focus (which raises the sound image vertically to create clearer voices)--enhancing sound quality through the set's own two speakers (which are powered by 5 watts per channel). StableSound maintains television volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal, and Toshiba's Sub Bass System (SBS) boosts a program's actual low-end audio for heightened dramatic impact.
