Sony Plasma TV

Model: KE-5XBR950

Sony has continued with their uniquely elegant "floating glass" design, which gave their 1st-generation XBR plasmas that strikingly different look. The black stripe framing the screen gives images extra pop. In fact, this plasma displays HDTV images with such clarity and depth that you'd swear you're looking out a window!

Enhance your living space with the elegance of Sony’s XBR® Plasma WEGA™ High Definition Television. Its floating glass panel design will seduce your senses as you enjoy the stunning picture enhancement provided by our Sony WEGA Engine™ System. Direct Digital Circuitry enables a natural, rich image from any source while Digital Reality Creation® brings you amazing picture resolution. Scale the size of side-by-side P&P windows with MID®X circuitry, and see deeper blacks and better depth with Sony’s Plasma Panel Driver LSI. You want to watch movies at their best, and Sony’s CineMotion® technology makes it possible, while a Built-in SDTV/HDTV tuner offers you all the glory of Hi-Definition broadcast.

The KDE-50XBR950 boasts a wide assortment of inputs on the back panel of the Media Receiver Unit. You'll find two HD-compatible component video inputs, plus a pure digital DVI input for use with a satellite HDTV tuner, or one of the small but growing number of DVI-equipped DVD players. You'll also find plenty of composite and S-video connections for your other video gear. A single "umbilical cord" connects the Media Receiver Unit to the plasma panel, keeping the look of your installation simple and clean.

An Enhanced Memory Stick® slot gives you a convenient way to enjoy not only digital photos, but now MP3 music files, too.
