Highlights

Ambisound technology

Ambisound technology produces truly embracing multi-channel surround sound from fewer speakers. It delivers an immersive 5.1 sound experience without the constraints of sitting position, room shape or size, and without the clutter of multiple speakers and cables. Through the combined effect of psychoacoustic phenomena, array processing and precisely angled driver positioning, Ambisound delivers more sound from fewer speakers.

Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD

Dolby TrueHD delivers 7.1 channels and DTS-HD High-Resolution Audio of the finest sound from your Blu-ray Discs. Audio reproduced is virtually indistinguishable from the studio master, so you hear what the creators intended for you to hear. Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio complete your high-definition entertainment experience.

Exciting new things like exclusive downloadable content, live events, live chats, gaming and online shopping all await you. Ride the high definition wave with Blu-ray Disc playback and BD-Live

HD speakers

Designed to support our Ambisound technology, these HD speaker cones are geometrically designed to control the optimal directivity pattern. Using newly developed dense fiber-treated speaker cones, the speakers are able to reproduce the finest details from the most demanding HD sources. Now you can enjoy distortion-less and crystal clear sound with all sources.

Blu-ray Disc playback

Blu-ray Discs have the capacity to carry high definition data, along with pictures in the 1920 x 1080 resolution that defines full high definition images. Scenes come to life as details leap at you, movements smoothen and images  turn crystal clear. Blu-ray also delivers uncompressed surround sound – so your audio experience becomes unbelievably real. The high storage capacity of Blu-ray Discs also allows a host of interactive possibilities to be built in. Seamless navigation during playback and other exciting features like pop-up menus bring a whole new dimension to home entertainment.

Deep Color

The real world is not limited by colors – practically any hue can occur in any shade, in any luminosity. What you see on your TV screen is a different matter, so images often don’t look true to life. Deep Color recreates the natural world on your TV screen, bringing to you the millions and millions of colors that occur in reality – and launching your viewing experience to new heights.

Optional dock
