Last year, Toshiba's Cinema Series LCDs were among the best-looking flat-panel HDTVs around. Remarkably, their 2007 Cinema models are better in every way. The 46" 46LX177 is aimed at videophiles who demand superb image quality. This TV is packed with cutting-edge display technologies that work together to deliver a beautifully balanced picture at all times and with all sources.
1080p resolution for maximum high-definition detail
Most high-definition programs are in 1080i, and the only way to see all of the details in a 1080i signal is with a 1080p display like this one. It's that simple. The 46LX177's built-in tuners pull in all types of local over-the-air broadcasts, from ordinary analog to digital high-definition (antenna required). And a "QAM" tuner lets cable TV subscribers tune in unscrambled digital cable channels, including HD, where available.
Fast refresh rate eliminates motion blur
High resolution is critical for superb picture clarity, and so is accurate motion handling. LCD TVs have improved their motion handling in recent years by speeding up the "pixel response time." Along with fast response time, Toshiba attacks the problem of blurring with their ClearFrame™ 120Hz display technology. This system allows the 46LX177 to display 120 frames of video per second, instead of the standard 60 frames. Moving objects on screen look smoother, clearer and more natural — especially fast-action sports.
Versatile inputs let you experience the best sources available
The generous array of audio/video connections includes two HD-capable component video jacks, plus three HDMI digital inputs for use with the growing number of HDMI-equipped components (like HD satellite receivers and upconverting DVD players). These days, a growing number of HDTVs can display 1080p video, but not all of them accept 1080p signals. That's an important distinction, especially if you're considering adding a high-definition disc player.
