New Sony TV with built-in VCD player. How long before they come with a built-in DVD player?....... koreaherald.co.kr 03-09-98 Sony Announces Launch of XBR Televisions; New TV Combines High Technology and Classic Design to Meet Needs of Consumers Sony has announced the launch of Sony XBR televisions, which company officials said combine leading-edge technology and classic design to meet the needs of consumers. ''Year after year, Sony XBR televisions have set a new standard for excellence in picture quality, sound, and design,'' one spokesman said. He added, ''With XBR's 34-inch screens, Sony has opened a new era in the private television industry.'' The spokesman said that XBR's secret starts with Sony's Trinitron picture tube, which has made it possible for the company to produce the first flat vertical television screen in the industry. XBR also offers a unique lens system featuring Sony's exclusive aperture grille, which guarantees a uniform, distortion-free image. Details are further enhanced by Sony's velocity modulation scanning technologies, including vertical aperture compensation, which ensures unparalleled contrast and richness on XBR televisions. ''When you take into account advances like the 3D Digital Comb Filter, Magnetic Quadra Pole, dynamic focus circuitry and wideband video amplifier, XBR television's dominance of the television market seems as clear as an XBR image,'' the spokesman said. Mini model MHC-V7700AV Sony's mini model MHC-V7700AV could be described as ''the mouse that roared.'' High-power sound, including an earth-shaking bass, are brought to you by an ultra-high P.M.P.O. of 1,800W. The mini model comes with a four-way five-unit speaker system for a wider range of vocals. Among its main functions, the MHC-V7700AV can play video CDs. Thanks to the latest advances in digital laser technology, an entire film can now be transferred to a disc the size of a music CD. MHC-V7700AV is also equipped with Dolby Prologic Surround, bringing you effects like sound localization, which creates the illusion of dialogue coming straight from an actor's mouth, or sound mobility, which, for example, shifts the sound of a siren from left to right as a police car weaves across the screen.
