Sony WEGA KLV-23HR1 23-Inch Flat Panel LCD Television

The KLV-23HR1 offers 1,280 x 768 native pixel resolution and compatibility with 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i HDTV signals. The SRS WOW audio effect, which brings life to low and mid frequencies through the set's two 4-watt speakers.

LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors and televisions, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (no screen flickering or radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT TVs), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life with no risk of image burn-in, space savings, and light weight/easy positioning.

The KLV-23HR1 performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal, a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie programs in their native 24-frame format. Digital video mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

Sony's Digital Reality Creation Circuitry grants amazing picture resolution while proprietary Direct Digital Circuitry increases a video signal's signal-to-noise ratio before it reaches the DRC circuit, ensuring rich, natural-looking images from any source.

Finally, Channel Fix lets you select a specific TV channel (3, for example) for cable box reception. Then you can control a compatible cable box via the TV remote without inadvertently changing the TV from Channel 3. A handy Clean Wire Management System allows hidden integration into any home video setting by clever organization of connection wires to other home electronics devices.

Connections include a high-definition-compatible component-video input, 2 each composite- and S-video inputs (1 each on the front panel for ready connection to a camcorder or gaming console), and an RF coaxial input for hookup with an older VCR, cable box, or antenna.

What's in the Box
TV, operating instructions, remote control (RM-928Y), 2 batteries (for remote), AC adapter and power cord, registration card, warranty card, a table-top stand, and a 75 ohm coaxial cable.
