Unique and complete with a built-in DVD player
Trademark looks and actions stick around for a reason. From the recognizable startup tones of a Microsoft operating system to Prince doing the splits in tight purple pants . . . the examples go on and on. In the TV realm, LG has added to the trademark tradition with the LG40 series. All of these TVs feature an elegant red and black design that extends across the back of the chassis, kinda like a classy scarf (come on, use your imagination . . . ). Brilliant high definition 1920 x 1080p images, a built-in DVD player, 24p Real Cinema mode, and an AV mode (which automatically tailors its settings for movies, sports, or games), make this LCD HDTV an all around extraordinary addition to your home.
HDMI connectivity and SimpLink™
Bringing you some of the most functional technology in the industry, LG's 26LG40 features four HDMI connections. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i, and even 1080p. Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions, and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format.
Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI. LG's SimpLink technology allows for convenient control of other LG products using the existing HDMI connection.
AV and Expert Mode
Like choosing different sound effects on your stereo like opera hall, bar, or concert, your 26LG40 gives you image options that enhance whatever you're watching. AV Mode optimizes the picture into Cinema Mode, Sports Mode, and Game Mode. And Expert Mode has been certificated by the ISF (Imaging Science Foundation) picture quality calibration institution, making it possible to finely tune the picture at a professional level. The result is a dynamic HDTV that is adaptable to many different modes and settings.
Invisible speakers
The 26LG40's unique sound system further accentuates the beauty of the product, incorporating speaker actuators around the perimeter of the entire bezel, and at the same time, eliminating traditional speaker drivers and associated grills. This not only allows for a sleek, finished look, but also creates a virtual "wall" of sound.
Remember the cables!
If you are using a Blu-ray player, a receiver, or anything else that is capable of sending a high definition signal, don't forget to purchase the right cables. Many people don't realize what a significant difference the right cables make, and when they get their new high definition equipment home, they think the equipment itself is to blame when the picture isn't as good as it should be. This is because most components (Blu-ray, receivers, etc) don't come with cables, so people often use whatever they have around the house, or buy cheap cables, thinking "it will do." Another reason people don't buy the right cables is because trying to figure out which cables you need can be daunting, and it's hard to know where to start. Our sales representatives are there to explain all your options, so you can make the best purchase and get the most out of your HDTV.
