Samsung HL-T5055S 50″ DLP HDTV

Make a big impression in a limited space with Samsung’s high-performance, value-packed, energy-efficient HLT5055S. The thin bezel and hidden speaker system let you enjoy more screen and less frame. With a slim 12.8″ depth and remarkable light weight, it’s the set that fits where others won’t.

This 50″ DLP HDTV offers the crisp definition and bright imagery of Samsung’s Cinema Smooth 720p light engine; a 2500:1 contrast ratio delivers vivid colors, bright whites, and deep blacks, all in fine detail.

SRS TruSurround XT audio fills the room with clear, robust sound. Game Mode optimizes performance so gamers will marvel at the lifelike action. Enjoy the versatility of a wide range of A/V inputs and 2 HDMI ports that allow digital connectivity to Cable/Satellite boxes, Blu-ray players, AV receivers, and more.

The two HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) addresses both pure digital audio and video performance and simplifies connections from the new generation set-top boxes and DVD players by reducing cable connections to one cable and plug. You can also connect your DVD and DTV sources with two smart component video (Y/Pb/Pr) inputs that accept 480p/720p/1080i signals. And, with its PC input, the HLT5055S can also function as a high-quality XGA PC monitor.

Samsung employs a Texas Instruments DLP chip that is faster than any HDTV technology, with the mirrors switching on and off 15,000 times a second to deliver a razor-sharp picture for fast moving images. When combined with Samsung’s new Cinema Smooth light engine, the result is a crisp, bright picture with deep, rich colors that’s closer to film.

Samsung’s 2.2″ color wheel spins at 14,400 rpm for smooth fast-motion video, and has five color segments for more accurate colors. Comprised of the 3 primary colors — red, green and blue — plus cyan and yellow, it achieves film-like transitions and eliminates the pixel breakup found in slower color wheel designs and slower-switching LCD microdisplays. The Cinema Smooth light engine also uses a whisper quiet air bearing design.

Samsung’s Cinema Mode lets you see brilliant colors, by matching them more closely to production standards. This creates more accurate colors and natural skin tones when viewing movies on your TV.

Powered by Samsung’s Cinema Smooth Technology, 3:2 Pull Down corrects for the artificial frames created when films are converted to DVDs. The result is a clearer image without the subtle motion artifacts caused by 24 to 30 frames per second video conversion. Game Mode enhances dark areas, sharpens the picture, speeds up the image processing response and enhances the sounds of your games. Picture and sound quality are optimized for the special needs of gaming systems at the touch of a button.

The HLT generation of Samsung DLP HDTVs are capable of displaying future 3D games, movies, and other programming via 3D compatible glasses and hardware.
