Wega Hi-Scan
™
TVs 32" & 36"
Sony’s latest high-value Hi-Scan
™
TVs
are among the most versatile HDTV-
ready models around. You get a total of
7 A/V inputs, including 2 HD-capable
component video inputs — that means
you can connect a progressive-scan
DVD player and an HDTV tuner (like
Sony’s best-selling SAT-HD200, on pg.
146). Digital Reality Creation
™
circuitry
helps bridge the gap between regular
analog video and HDTV. This digital
processing “upconverts” analog video
sources to 960i or 480p — images look
noticeably smoother and more solid.
The front-panel Memory Stick
®
slot
lets you see your digital photos on a big screen!
Key Features:
Hi-Scan HDTV monitor (compatible with HDTV/SDTV formats – when connected to
a separate HDTV tuner – and displays them at 1080i or 480p) • 4:3 screen aspect ratio • Digital Reality
Creation (upconverts NTSC sources to 960i or 480p) • CineMotion 3-2 pulldown processing • HD
Detailer wideband video amplifier • 181-channel NTSC tuner • Twin-View 2-tuner PIP (split screen)
• 2 HD-capable component video inputs (compatible with 1080i/720p/480p/480i signals) • DVI HDTV

tube). See chart on pg. 138 for more info, including dimensions.

New!
Sony’s new widescreen XBRs provide a major performance breakthrough.
We’re used to seeing incremental improvements from year to year, but these
two models deliver the finest XBR picture quality we’ve ever seen!
How did Sony improve their flagship XBR technology? By developing
the highest-resolution Trinitron yet — the revolutionary Super Fine Pitch
CRT. The defining element of any Trinitron picture tube is the “aperture
grill”; a metal mask with hundreds of narrow vertical slits through which
beams from the TV’s electron gun pass, striking the phosphor dot coating
to form the images we see. The Super Fine Pitch CRT has 65% more of these
vertical slits for a huge increase in horizontal resolution. For bright, vibrant
colors to match the added detail, Sony also increased the output of the
electron gun, and used a high-intensity luminescent phosphor coating.
Designed specifically for HDTV, the 3-D clarity of these XBRs will astound
you (separate HDTV tuner required, see Sony’s SAT-HD200 on pg. 146).
It’s not surprising that HDTV looks great, but thanks to the latest version
of Sony’s DRC “line-doubling” — DRC MultiFunction V1 — even relatively
low-quality signals like cable TV and VHS tapes can look smoother and
clearer. The key is that you can fine-tune the amount of picture enhancement
to match your personal preference and the quality of each input source. You
can even store your own custom settings for easy recall.
Step-ups from ’HS510 models above:
Super Fine Pitch Aperture Grill • anti-reflective screen
coating • adjustable DRC MultiFunction V1 • warranty: 2 years parts & labor. See chart on page
138 for more info, including dimensions.
The KV-30XBR910 is Sony’s first 30" XBR. For close-up viewing in an
intimate home theater, there may be no better TV than this one.

The 34" KV-34XBR910 is the finest direct-view CRT
television Sony has ever built. Their very first HD-capable
TV was a 34" direct-view that cost
$
9,000; its picture was
not as sharp, clean, and effortlessly natural as this one!

Wega Hi-Scan TV 34" widescreen
Sony’s 34" KV-34HS510 offers the perform-
ance and features of the 32" & 36" models
described at left, but with the increasingly
popular 16:9 screen shape that’s more suited
to widescreen DVDs and HDTV.

Sony’s 40" KV-40XBR800 doesn’t
use the new CRT featured in the
30" & 34" models described at left,
but its picture is amazing — big,
yet bright and razor-sharp. Its 4:3
screen makes standard shows look
fantastic, and widescreen sources
look great, too. (This set’s 16:9
window is larger than a 34" screen!)
