This 42" HD Plasma TV delivers beautiful XGA High-Definition picture quality, yet it comes in an affordable, all-in-one design.
One-body design eliminates the need for a media receiver, for simple set-up and connectivity.
The clear front of the PDP-42A3HD is actually an optical-grade glass panel, which acts as a color filter, equalizing the spectrum of light emitted by the plasma. The result is a full, accurate range of colors and increased contrast.
The Built-in ATSC Tuner provides easy access to high-definition content.
Picture-in-Picture Mode gives you five different PIP viewing options, letting you customize which video content is being displayed where.
HDMI input for the highest-level transmission of digital images from the source.
