An Entertainment Powerhouse
Samsung's 40" LNS4092D enhances the master bedroom, living room or den with a startlingly realistic picture when it's on -- and slim, elegant style when it's off. A 5000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and over one million pixels sharpen every picture while Samsung's Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp saturates it with the brilliance of 12.8 billion colors. Audio is equally impressive, with the full sound of the Dual Acoustic Chamber System and SRS TruSurround XT emanating from hidden bottom speakers. Perfect for the master bedroom, living room or den, the wide, 178-degree viewing angle and convenient swivel stand let everyone enjoy the show. And the new, optimized game mode and ultra-fast 8ms response time take Xbox games to a new height of realism. Adding to its versatility, numerous digital devices, including DVD players, PCs, MP3s and more, can be added via two HDMI connections and side A/V inputs.
HDMI (High Defintion Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is the first industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video connection. HDMI provides the best interface between a DVD player and compatible products. When matched with a compatible component, this single interconnecting cable combines: Multi-channel audio, uncompressed digital video, intercommunication between devices and simple control protocols. This single cable connection ensures that all signals remain in their pure digital form and secure by use of High Definition Copy Protection (HDCP) regardless of signal output resolution. The LNS4092D features two HDMI connections.
More Dynamic Connections
With all of its connections, this HDTV gives you a wide variety of entertainment options. Through its PC connection, the LNS4092D LCD can function as a high-resolution PC monitor and a high-end TV without any sacrifice in picture quality. Outperforming PC monitors in brightness, response time, resolution, and of course, screen size, Samsung lets you adapt to the expanding multi-media revolution. You can easily connect your favorite compatible MP3 player to your Samsung LCD television and control your music right from your TV. Easy controls and interface allow you to plug n' play your music while having a special event or just enjoying music in your living room. Side A/V ports provide easy connections for a camcorder, digital camera, or any other digital device with no hassles. You also get a component video input (480i/480p/720p/1080i), S-Video and composite video inputs, a sound monitor out, optical digital audio output, and a coaxial antenna input. A stereo headphone jack is also there for your convenience.
CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp)
Every TV's final destination on the visual side should be 100 percent coverage of the NTSC standard in the color map. Typical LCD TVs can only cover 72-percent of this area. Even some CRT TVs can only cover 76-percent of the area of the NTSC standard. LCD TV with new 92-percent backlight units, unlike other conventional LCD TVs which use normal fluorescent lights with limited color coverage, can show the world of breathlessly vivid colors. Colors using the new BLU are so deep, so natural, and so vivid that red becomes more reddish, green color gets far greener. And the result is amazing 92-percent coverage of the NTSC color standard, a superior color gamut than other LCDs.
High Contrast, Wide Angles
Samsung's PVA screen enables brighter whites, deeper blacks and every shade in between. Its high contrast ratio (5000:1 dynamic contrast ratio/500 cd/m2) provides an abundant palette of perfect colors. Left side, right side or upside-down, whatever your LCD TV's location, Samsung's solution allows you to see any display clearly due to the 178-degree wide-viewing angle. Horizontally and vertically, your LCD TV will always be well placed to enjoy the entertainment no matter what your angle of view is.
Enhanced Game Mode
The new game mode enhances dark areas, sharpens the picture, speeds up the image processing response and enhances the sounds of your game. Picture and sound quality optimized for the special needs of gaming systems at the touch of a button. This new Game Mode has been tested and proven by Microsoft engineers that know how games should appear on television.
Getting A Great Picture
The LNS4092D's 1366 x 768 pixel resolution LCD screen is HD-grade, with a built-in image scaler to handle inputs from a variety of digital and analog audio/video sources. Samsung's DNIe (Digital Natural Image engine) dramatically improves the picture by enhancing the contrast, detail and white balance while reducing noise. A 3D Y/C digital comb filter constantly analyzes the three dimensions of picture height, picture width, and picture changes over time, to reduce edge image artifacts while improving transition detail. Progressive scan technology eliminates the flicker that you see on traditional, interlaced scanning TVs, while an 8ms response time minimizes the blurring of moving video.
We Have You Virtually Surrounded
Samsung LCD TVs are equipped with the best that technology can offer in sound quality. Even when viewing regular broadcasts, the LNS4092D's virtual surround sound makes you feel as if the theater has been brought to your living room. SRS TruSurround XT is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience through the two-speaker internal playback system.
Other Useful Features
The LNS4092D not only looks and sounds great, it's also a pleasure to use. A built-in digital tuner (ATSC) means you don't need a set top box. The set's V-Chip system allows the blocking of rated TV and movie programs determined by a parent to contain objectionable content. Auto channel search helps you find those favorites, and picture-in-picture (PIP) enables convenient simultaneous viewing of TV programs and video or PC sources. There's a variable sleep timer to turn the TV off in varying time intervals, while an auto volume leveler keeps audio volume consistent during channel changing. Finally, the multi-lingual on-screen display offers direction in English, Spanish, or French.
Swivel Stand
The new swivel stand feature provides a +/- 15-degree swivel to allow you to move your screen depending on where you want to watch your television. This convenient feature makes it easy to move the screen without lifting or moving your television.
