JVC's I'Art PRO 48-inch AV-48P575 rear-projection television takes into consideration just about every feature that demanding digital customers might seek--now and into the future. The set stands under 2 feet deep and offers 480p, 720p, and 1080i image compatibility and a broad, 16:9 widescreen aspect-ratio and innovative theater-oriented features like DIST 1080i (Digital Image Scaling Technology, with which all sources are upconverted to full high-definition 1080i resolution) and selectable on/off velocity-scan modulation, which improves the definition at picture edges.

The AV-48P575's high-resolution (0.52 mm) lenticular screen has anti-static coating and a scratch-resistant screen shield to ensure long life and pristine viewing. For adjusting the set's 7-inch SuperHD CRTs, you can use the built-in Super Focus auto convergence feature or 81-point manual convergence if you want to set the convergence precisely to your taste.

HD Range DSD (Digital Super Detail) High-End Edge-Correction Circuitry, and Natural Cinema (3:2 pulldown reversal) corrects the problem of blurred edges which may occur when viewing a program originally shot on film (such as motion pictures) or animation. Natural Cinema helps correct conversion errors that occur when film, which is shot at 24 frames-per-second, is broadcast at the television rate of 30 frames-per-second.

For direct hookup with a DTV set-top receiver, the set offers a cutting-edge High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI). HDMI is a lossless, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface to link the set with any compatible audio/video source. HDMI supports standard-definition (SD), enhanced definition (ED), or high-definition (HD) video, plus multi-channel digital audio--all using a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports up to 8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements.

Two auto-sensing, HD-capable component-video inputs accept video from DTV receivers or standard and progressive-scan DVD players (among other devices), while S-video and standard RCA composite-video inputs accommodate most other video sources. The set offers a total of 4 audio/video inputs, one of which is built into the front panel so you can hook up a VCR, camcorder, or gaming console. A rear-panel RF input accommodates older VCRs, cable boxes, and antennas.

A multifunction timer turns the TV on and off for you when you're not home or works as an alarm clock or program reminder; a sleep timer saves energy by turning off the set after you've nodded off. Other features include XDS (Extended Data Service) auto clock set with ID and channel display, 6 aspect modes including HD EZ Fill (Panorama, Regular, Cinema, Full, HD Cinema Zoom, HD Panorama), and single-tuner POP (picture-on-picture) with image freeze and multiwindow indexing.

The AV-48P575 receives not only stereo broadcasts, but Second Audio Programming (or SAP), too, and you always have Advanced HyperSurround to simulate surround sound from any 2 speakers. BBE High-Definition Audio improves speech intelligibility and restores the dynamic range of compressed musical passages.
