Manufacturer description

Stand in front of the Elite PRO-1410HD 61" widescreen HD plasma monitor, and you'll be mesmerized. Why is it so hard to turn away? Here are a few reasons. From input through all processing steps and to output on the display, the video signal remains in the digital domain. This ensures noise-free, no loss signal quality for the highest possible resolution of all types of input from video to film to PC. Four gamma modes can be selected. Such precision allows for more accurate display of the tone gradations, even for images with low lighting. Scan Converter converts input signals with high sampling accuracy so even minor details such as small letters are sharp and clear. Scaling LSIs smooth jagged edges, correct color bleeds and select the ideal input resolution in images that are smooth and clean. Each individual lamp is encased in its own "cell", with walls on all sides so that light doesn't bleed into neighboring cells. This energy-efficient design allows each lamp to deliver a more concentrated beam of light, for truer colors and brighter images. Color Management selectively boosts or scales back values to match actual images without affecting other colors on the screen. The ISF C3 (Custom Calibration Configuration) feature enables your plasma TV to be optimized for the specific environment in which you've placed it. The PRO-1410HD uses a precisely engineered Color Filter that decreases light reflection for better viewability and filters out unnecessary elements in the red, green, and blue light for purer color reproduction. All images, even fast moving ones, will be accurate crisp and vivid.

Amazing picture, side by side comparison is the only way to tell

Pros: HDMI connection from A/V processor is flawless!

Cons: Picture quality controls are complex, but built-in modes satisfactory. Poor picture quality for std broadcasts.

Review: Expensive (and heavy) unit with beautiful craftmanship. Pedestal stand expensive too... but these are made to wall mount. Picture quality really apparent when viewed side-by-side with alternatives. Component inputs work nicely, HDMI pict quality is outstanding.

System: PRO1410HDHD-DTV, Denon 4806, Jamo concert 8s, Carver SW, LG prog scan DVD (with Sunfire 400-5 off preouts to room 2). The Denon 4806 will broadcast HDMI over a 50ft cable with no problem.
