Advanced Iris function provides superior contrast (up to 10,000:1). The XBR® Series has WEGA
Engine HD™ video processing technology for refined high definition picture quality. Available in more
sizes than the previous series and includes three HDMI inputs (1080p) for uncompressed audio/video
interface between TV and compatible external components. Bigger, brighter and better than ever,
Sony’s Grand WEGA SXRD™ XBR™ Series provides the Full HD 1080p experience with stunning

SXRD™ Panels SXRD technology is the latest display technology developed by the legendary
television engineers at Sony to meet and exceed the demands of a High Definition image at its full
1080 line resolution. Digitally transmitted High Definition signals can contain over 2 million individual
detail points that need to be displayed accurately and rapidly. SXRD displays those 2 million detail
points per SXRD panel accurately since the 3 SXRD panels actually contain enough pixels to fully
display a 1080 line picture without interlacing it. SXRD™ has the speed to create a smooth, film like
image. The SXRD™ panels have a blistering 2.5ms response time (total rise and fall time), which
exceeds the demands of even the most rapidly moving High Definition images. And SXRD creates
highly accurate, natural colors because the 3­panel design displays all the colors, all the time.
Advanced Iris a special Sony function designed to improve contrast expression especially in darker
scenes. The Advanced Iris function is enabled by using either one of two modes, Auto and Manual.
The Auto Mode has two settings designed to work best with video content such as movies that vary
between bright scenes and dark scenes. Auto 1 is for programs that have a wide range of brightness
from scene to scene. Auto 2 is for programs that have less variation between brightness levels from
scene to scene.

signal­processing path includes video processing functions that are designed to improve overall
picture quality. The WEGA Engine HD has similar functions to the WEGA Engine™ (Green, blue and
white color enhancer circuit for a vivid image, Digital MPEG Noise Reduction Circuit reduces annoying
