1080i HDMI
HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. It
is a direct digital connection that can carry digital HD
video as well as digital multi-channel audio. By eliminating
the conversion to analogue signals it delivers perfect
picture and sound quality, completely free from noise.
HDMI is fully backwards-compatible with DVI (Digital
Video Interface).
Progressive Scan
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the
image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of
send ing a f ie ld c om pr isi ng th e od d l in es t o t he scr ee n f irs t,
followed by the field with the even lines, it writes both
fields at the same time. A full image is created
instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a
speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line
structure.
Moving Surround Sound
Powered by Dolby Virtual Speaker technology, Moving
Surround Sound expands and enriches the audio and
video experience by adding a 'visual' dimension. Listeners
can now appreciate an immersive surround sound
experience that they can also 'see' with the moving.
Essentially, both the top speaker and the metal bullet
speaker heads are motorised so they actually 'move'
together to recreate a surround sound experience. The
combination of the moving speakers create a 'sound
beaming' eff ect towar ds the lis tener, ef fectivel y widenin g
the sound stage and the sides of the room.
Dolby Virtual Speaker
Dolby Virtual Speaker is a sophisticated audio
virtualisation technology that produces rich and
immersive surround sound from a two-speaker system.
Highly advanced spatial algorithms faithfully replicate the
sonic characteristics that occur in an ideal 5.1-channel
environment. DVD playback is enhanced by expanding
the 2-channel environment. When combined with Dolby
Pro Logic II processing, any high-quality stereo source is
transformed into true-to-life, multi-channel surround
sound. No need to purchase extra speakers, wires or
speaker stands to appreciate room-filling sound.
Digital Sound Control
Digital Sound Control offers you a choice of preset Jazz,
Rock, Pop and Cla ssical contr ols you can use to optimise
the frequency ranges for different musical styles. Each
mode uses graphic equalizing technology to automatically
adjust the sound balance and enhance the most
important sound frequencies in your chosen music style.
Ultimately, Digital Sound Control makes it easy for you
get the most out of your music by precisely adjusting the
sound balance to match the type of music you are
playing.
USB direct
Simply plug your USB device into the system and share
your stored digital music and photos with your family and
friends.
