The Philips 50pf9966 is a 50 inch Plasma TV, a pretty nice
size, perfect for your home theater system. If you are a
move buff then the 16:9 aspect ratio should be familiar to
you, it's the same ratio as used in movie theaters. The audio
is supplied courtesy of 2 fifteen watt speakers, as well
as a subwoofer system. Probably the most interesting feature
to the 50pf9966 Plasma television is the Ambient
Light technology. This technology can actually control the
brightness of the picture screen, making it darker or lighter
according to the amount of light in the room. Very cool and
very useful, one thing I hate is when it's bright in the
room and colors on the screen look washed out, this solves
that problem.
This is a HDTV ready television however you need to purchase
the high definition receiver separately, in order to receive
a high def signal.
- 1366 x 768 pixel resolution
- older television systems had that annoying glare when
you have light on in the room. The Anti reflex coated
screen solves this problem, by taking the glare out of
your screen

dual screen option
- want to read the TV instead of listening to it? The closed
caption feature will come in very handy, also essential
for deaf people.

cable

The price for this Philips
plasma TV system is $2,790.00 if you shop online. Epinions
is a great place to do comparison shopping, they always seem
to find you a cheaper price than Amazon.
- "I investigated for months and personally looked at many
high end plasmas out there. I bought the PHILIPS 50PF9966
50-IN HDTV and am really thrilled with it. The color is
rich and so brilliant that when you have a true high definition
signal that you feel you can reach right into the image.
Coupled with my 5.1 surround sound system it seems I died
and went to heaven. It handles all digital signals well
but analog on the other becomes pretty hard to watch after
viewing HDTV. Fortunately, analog stations are going the
way of VCRs. It has pre-set viewing configurations and
you can quickly flip through them to get the best picture
possible if your as fussy as I am. The ambilight in the
background is not just a gimmick, it really seems to enrich
the viewing of the image" source - epinions
Cnet has a product description, they state that the Philips
50PF9966 is a 50-inch, flat television. Compared to
other flat TVs on the market, it is relatively expensive
at around $5,000 (if you buy it new). In general, a liquid
plasma display can provide more realistic black-levels
than an LCD display can. Has a 50-inch screen size. This
is larger than the average TV on the market today, but
is to be expected for a TV of this price. Also, this TV
has a 3000:1 contrast ratio, which is somewhat higher than
some similarly priced TVs. With built-in HDTV compatibility,
this TV set can display images that are significantly sharper
and more realistic than regular television, as long as
the source is high definition. more
