• 10-Watt 6 Stereo Amplifier
Built-in 10-watt amplifier enhances
stereo performance and can power
optional left/right or surround
speakers.
• Broadcast Stereo with dbx 7
Noise Reduction
Improves the clarity and fidelity of
stereo broadcasts by restoring
dynamic range and suppressing
unwanted noise.
• Low-Noise Audio System
Delivers a 60dB signal-to-noise ratio
for spectacular quality sound.
• Matrix Surround Sound 4
Synthesizes rear-channel infor-
mation to create theatre-like
surround sound.
➤ SRS Focus 3
Audio Technology
Ingenious new technology from
SRS
Labs. Raises the sound
stage to ear level providing more
lifelike audio. Combined with SRS
3
3D Sound, it creates a fully immer-
sive “live performance” listening
experience from as few as two
stereo speakers. The Focus
3
System is ideally suited for home
applications when speakers can not
be placed in optimal locations for
either space or aesthetic reasons.
• Sound Logic ™ Audio Leveler
When turned on, eliminates the
annoying “blast” of sound during
commercial breaks.
• Front-Fired Speaker System
Front-fired full-range frequency
drivers provide excellent imaging
while localizing voices at the
screen.
• Second Audio Program (SAP)
Decodes the second audio program
available on some broadcasts.

➤ Master Touch ® Universal
Glo-In-The-Dark Remote
CRK76TA1
Ergonomic design with glo-in-the-
dark buttons provides complete TV
operation plus control of the primary
functions of virtually every brand of
remote-controllable VCRs and cable
boxes, and RCA
® -DIRECTV ™ Systems.
Also controls most functions of RCA
DVD Players and select functions of
some brands of audio components.
Frequently used buttons glow in the
dark, making it easy to find the
correct functions even at night.
• Adjustable Picture Control
Custom picture settings are just a
button press away. Adjust and
store Contrast, Color, Tint, Black
Level, and Sharpness settings for
personal picture performance
depending on your own
individual tastes.
• Custom Convergence
Adjustment
When the Earth’s magnetic field
interferes with the Projection TV
alignment, adjustable convergence
provides fine tuning for red, blue,
and green Projection TV tubes.
The 8-bit D/A (digital-to-analog)
converter allows much finer
alignment for restoring picture
performance to its original setting.
➤ High Gain Dark-Tint Screen —
25% Improved Brightness
New screen design improves
brightness by 25% while utilizing
dark-tint double lenticular and
fresnel levels to enhance picture
contrast with blacker blacks,
brilliant whites, and deep rich
colors.
• High Output, Liquid Cooled-
and-Coupled Picture Tubes
High output picture tubes are
liquid coupled to a precision
optical system to deliver bright,
clear images.
• High Transmittance
Lens System
Hybrid glass/acrylic lens system
optimizes focus while providing
maximum brightness.
• First Surface
Reflective Mirror
Provides maximum picture bright-
ness and sharpness by reflecting
more light from the front surface of
the mirror.
• Preferred Picture Presets
Optimize the picture by selecting
the correct setting depending on
the lighting conditions of the room.
Choose between four settings for
bright lighting, normal lighting, dim
(soft) lighting, and a customer-
selectable and savable “personal”
setting.
• Deluxe Shielded Tuner with
181-Channel Tuning
Capability
5
Special shielding dramatically
reduces ghosting caused from off-
air pick-up when watching cable
channels. Digitally-controlled
frequency synthesis tuning system
“locks on” to cable and standard
signals with unsurpassed accuracy.
➤
Computer-aligned 10-bit digital
circuitry provides precise and con-
sistent picture performance from
the moment the TV is turned on.
Combined with Dynamic Focus, it
maximizes picture brightness with
sharper corner focus ensuring a
beautifully detailed picture across
the entire screen.
➤ 3-Line Digital Comb Filter
Digital separation technology for
color and edge detail dramatically
enhances picture resolution by
eliminating blurred edges between
colors and reducing dot crawl,
producing a new level of picture
sharpness and detail.
➤ High-Performance Scan
Velocity Modulation (SVM)
Improved SVM circuitry automat-
ically varies the scanning speed of
the picture tube’s electron beam
to improve sharpness and detail
especially in high contrast areas.
• Dynamic Focus
Improves corner and edge focus
for an overall sharper picture.
• Adaptive Video
Noise Reduction
Video noise filter greatly reduces
noisy picture interference by auto-
matically adjusting to the incoming
signal level, providing a cleaner and
more consistent overall picture.
• Auto Color Balance
(also called Auto Kine
Bias — AKB)
Resets individual picture tube guns
(Red, Green, Blue) to maintain
consistent overall picture quality
for the life of the tube.
• Wide Band Video Amplifier
Delivers high resolution and clarity
by extending the video frequency
response. Optimizes performance
from high-resolution sources such
as the
RCA ® -DIRECTV ™ System,
DVD players, and S-Video signals
(S-VHS, Hi8).
• Dynamic BlackStretch
Circuitry
Extends black levels in bright
scenes to enhance contrast
and detail.
•
Automatically maintains natural
tones and color fidelity
from channel to channel and
scene to scene.
• Adjustable Color Warmth
Customer-selectable color
temperature system allows for
background color balance adjust-
ment of the picture to personal
preference. Setting choices are
Cool, Warm (Warm = NTSC
6500°k), or Normal.
• Contrast/Color
Tracking System
Synchronizes contrast and
color settings to maintain
vibrant images.
