With a Philips Plasma TV screen you get vivid colors like you've never seen before, extremely wide viewing angles (wider, even, than those of most LCD screens), and easy placement due to a plasma monitor's slim profile—the 42PF9936D is a mere 5.3 inches deep, perfect for tabletop or wall mounting. Brightness tends to be extremely uniform across plasma TV screens, which are also impervious to the picture distortion and negative color balances that afflict CRT monitors when placed near lighting or sound systems. With an EDTV resolution plasma panel this Philips Plasma TV is sure to be a big hit.

Key Features of the Philips 42PF9936D 42" Plasma Monitor

Philips Plasma Technology

Latest Plasma technology, resolution 853 x 480p.
This state-of-the-art Philips Plasma TV technology produces brilliant flicker-free pictures with optimum brightness and superb colors. This vibrant and sharp image will provide you with an enhanced viewing experience.

Progressive Scan for razor-sharp and flicker free images
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the field with the even lines, both fields are written at one 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.

Digital comb filter separates colors for sharpest images
The Digital comb filter separates brightness and color signals better to eliminate cross-color, cross-luminance and dot-crawl distortion. The digital comb filter 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. The result is a razor sharp image.

ActiveControl Plus
Active Control Plus automatically analyzes, 50 times per second, the incoming signal and adjusts the key picture settings on Sharpness, Digital Noise Reduction, Color and Contrast. The ambient light sensor adjusts the settings according to the viewing conditions in the room. Active Control Plus+ thus offers the best possible picture settings any time, any source.

Convenience Features

Flat, Slim, Wide
True flat multimedia TV which can be mounted on the wall like a painting.

Sophisticated design with a quality finish

Connects to your premium audio/video products

HDMI out for digital high-definition video and digital audio
HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. It is a direct digital connection that can carry digital HD video as well as digital multichannel audio. By eliminating the conversion to analog signals it delivers perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise. HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI.

Audio System Features

Virtual Dolby® Surround Sound
Virtual Dolby Surround is processing circuitry for enhanced surround sound effects, which create the sensation of Dolby Pro Logic without the necessity of additional rear speakers. The benefit is that viewers are totally immersed in their television experience.
