Wish you could watch movies with a big-screen, cinematic experience, but without obliterating your living space with a monstrously large projection TV? Get the best of both worlds with this incredibly compact, yet powerful Toshiba Home Theater LCD Projector! Whether projecting on a screen, or even a white wall, the projector displays video that's brighter and more lifelike than most projection TVs. Yet it's small enough and light enough to go anywhere. Try shuttling a huge projection TV between your residence and vacation home, and you'll see what a difference 200 lbs. makes!
Designed specifically with home theater enthusiasts in mind, this high-performance projector delivers exceptional picture quality with spectacular big-screen impact, even in HDTV resolution, the ultimate in cinema-quality home viewing. With 1,000 ANSI lumens brightness, it's one of the brightest LCD projectors in its category. It's also one of the quietest. With fan noise less than 31dB, you'll be able to focus your attention on the movie you're watching, not the equipment playing it.
Simple to set up and easy to use, this projector includes a wealth of advanced features and technologies, such as a high-resolution wide-panel 1280 x 720 pixel display and a 400:1 contrast ratio, to deliver super-sharp, vivid images from 30 to 300 inches (diagonal measurement). It also offers keystone adjustment, a great feature that compensates for skewed on-screen display due to less-than-optimal projector angles.
The projector utilizes three wide-panel polysilicon TFT active matrix LCDs one each for green, blue and red output. The wide-panel LCDs have the same 16:9 aspect ratio as an HDTV picture, enabling their entire panel surfaces to be utilized to display widescreen HDTV images with maximum resolution, compared to conventional LCD panels that only utilize a portion of their panel surfaces when displaying widescreen images.
It also incorporates the same T-FORC II processor used in Toshiba's professional models, which utilizes sophisticated digital video interpolation and compression techniques to eliminate jagged edges and produce images of unprecedented smoothness and clarity, while re-sizing different display resolutions to fill the projection screen without the need for manual adjustment.
It accepts all NTSC and ATSC signals and displays them in true 720p HD for the ultimate home theater experience. For total flexibility and compatibility, the projector includes S-Video, composite video, analog RGB (Dsub 15+ DVI analog, Dsub 15 compatible to component Y, Pb, Pr) inputs plus a component video adapter cable for video sources with RCA component video output jacks, making it the perfect display device for DVD-Video players, satellite receivers and other home theater components.
Compact Design and Total Installation FlexibilityWeighing just 11.22 lbs. and measuring 13.6" x 11.1" x 4.1", the unit's compact size makes it easy to install on a table or mount on a ceiling (using the optional ceiling mount). It includes an extensive complement of performance and convenience features for total home theater flexibility, such as 4X Digital Zoom and freeze-frame capabilities and a special user-friendly menu system that makes it easy to adjust the projected image to maximum clarity and brightness in all home viewing environments.
An extended-life 2000-hour lamp ensures the projector will provide bright, crisp images with minimal maintenance. All functions can be operated using the supplied remote control. Bilingual owner's manuals (English, Spanish, & French) and connecting cables are included.
