Cheap Hannspree's NBA 2005 Champions Ball 15" LCD Television (Electronics) Price

This state-of-the-art LCD TV offers consistent color tone, clear contrast values, and natural, life-like details. The 15-inch screen has a 1024 by 768-pixel resolution, 4:3 aspect ratio (fine for standard TV transmissions and pan-and-scan video), and a 150-degree horizontal viewing angle. The screen has a fast 16 millisecond (ms) response time (important for fast-moving sports programming), brightness rating of 500 cd/m2 (candela per square meter), and a 500:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.)

The 3-line digital comb filter helps to improve detail, clean up image outlines, and eliminate extraneous colors by comparing three scanning lines within a field of video. This set also performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal, too--a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie programs in their native 24-frame format. To adapt 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video, frames in the original movie must be duplicated; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this duplication by removing the redundant information to display a frame-accurate picture. The screen has an estimated lamp life of 50,000 hours, which translates to over 20 years with six hours of usage per day.

This TV has a pair of built-in stereo speakers that produce 2 watts per channel (4 watts total). It includes a 4-in-one video input--which accepts S-Video and RCA A/V connections--as well as a second RCA A/V input and an RF input, enabling you to easily hook up a DVD player or VCR. It also provides a headphone jack for private viewing and it comes with a remote control.

Tech Talk
Response Time refers specifically to LCD monitor and refers to the amount of time it takes for a liquid crystal cell to from active (black) to inactive (white) and back against to active (black). It's measured in milliseconds (ms), and the lower the number the faster the response time--translating to a smoother picture with fewer pixilated or ghosted artifacts.
