Product Description
Get the most out of your high-definition plasma television purchase with the
55-inch Hitachi 55HDS69, which offers a wealth of advanced technological
features that will ensure superior picture and audio performance for years to
come. Its blend of refined aesthetics is ideal for any home while its fully
high-definition display--with 768 vertical lines of progressive
resolution--provides stunningly vivid and colorful entertainment. The set's
built-in ATSC (DTV) tuner pulls HD signals (480p/720p/1080i) right from the
airwaves, and its QAM tuner is fully compatible with unscrambled HDTV cable
reception. The set's CableCARD port means the set will also receive digital
cable television systems services directly from a compatible cable operator
without requiring a bulky, external cable box. A standard analog NTSC tuner
receives standard-definition (SD) programming.
Plasma display technology offers the widest viewing angle of any type of
television. The wide viewing angle makes plasma the ultimate choice for wall
mounted television. Plasma television performance is also exceptional for
producing high quality images of fast motion content, like sports programming.
This set's video is powered by the PictureMaster HD III processing
technology, which features third-generation 1080p processing and new histogram
processing for enhanced contrast, sharpness, and color for a clearer, sharper
picture. It also offers extended color capabilities to reproduce the purest
reds, greens and blues, a maximum 16-bit/281 trillion color capability, and a 16
percent brighter panel.
The 4 MB, 10-bit digital 3D Y/C comb filter separates brightness and color
signals better in 3D domain to eliminate cross-color, cross-luminance and
dot-crawl distortion. It performs field-by-field comparisons of the television
image to accurately separate the color from the black-and-white information and
remove both horizontally and vertically hanging dots, as well as dot crawl,
resulting in a razor sharp image. This set also performs automatic 3:2 pulldown
detection and reversal, too--a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie
programs in their native 24-frame format. To adapt 24 frames-per-second movies
to 30 fps video, frames in the original movie must be duplicated; 3:2 pulldown
digitally corrects this duplication by removing the redundant information to
display a frame-accurate picture.
The 55HDS69 has a 1365 x 768-pixel resolution, and a high-contrast black rib
structure that provides excellent contrast and deep blacks with any source
material or viewing environment. It's designed to make a big impact with images
that will literally jump off the screen. Other video features include three
color temperature settings, four-step black enhancement, multiple aspect ratio
formats (four HD, six SD), and split-screen/picture-in-picture functionality.
The anti-reflective, high-contrast screen effectively absorbs ambient room
light, reducing reflections and producing richer blacks, vibrant color and
increased detail in shadows and highlights. Convenience features include
on/sleep timers, closed caption decoder, V-Chip parental controls, several
screensavers, and three-language on-screen display (English, French, Spanish).
It has a three-way, 36-watt speaker system that can produce simulated
surround sound and a bass boost. The set can also be used as a center-channel
speaker in a full surround sound system. It includes the following video and
audio connections:
Composite A/V: 4 rear, 1 side
S-Video: 2 rear
Component Video: 2 rear, 1 side
HDMI: 2 rear, 1 side
RF: 1
Digital audio output: 1 optical
