Toshiba 35A44 35" TV description
The 35-inch Toshiba 35A44 FST Black direct-view CRT TV delivers a big, beautiful picture using several unique technologies to give you the best viewing experience. Toshiba's Flatter Squarer Tube (FST) significantly reduces screen curvature on the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal axis of the panel. The FST Black picture tube supplies an increased viewing angle along with improved linearity compared with conventional tubes. A special darkening compound is added to the glass before the tube is formed that reduces ambient light reflection while improving contrast and depth of field.

A 3-line digital comb filter with Vertical Contour Correction virtually eliminates dot crawl or cross-color interference--producing a superior picture. While digital comb filters improve the vertical edges of images, Vertical Contour Correction works with the comb filters to improve the horizontal edges for complete image enhancement. Color temperature controls allow you to adjust white balance. The "Warm" setting reduces the color temperature to an NTSC standard 6,500 degrees Kelvin and delivers a redder image that is ideal for display in a dimly lit room. "Medium" and "Cool" provide a progressively bluer image for the best picture as room light levels are increased. The Black Level Expander increases the black threshold level, so blacks are pure black, not dark gray. This improved contrast makes the picture appear sharper and more 3D.

The 35A44's double-baffle speaker design uses side-mounted, front-firing speakers to deliver the most stereo sound reproduction available from a television's internal speaker system. Aside from the 5-watts-per-channel stereo speaker system, the 35A44 uses MTS for programming with stereo sound, SAP for receiving a second audio track in another language. And if you really like to be immersed in the environments on screen, the set's surround sound abilities let you enjoy an enhanced home theater experience without connection of external speakers.

The 35A44 has plenty of inputs for all your audio and video components. In back you'll find one RF, two composite, one S-video, and one ColorStream component, as well as video and fixed audio outputs. ColorStream component video inputs split the video signal into its base components--Y (the black and white part of the picture), Pr (red minus Y), and Pb (blue minus Y). The signal remains pure and unaffected by the TV's comb filter or NTSC decoder. The result is higher resolution and improved color purity. A front composite input makes hooking up a game console or camcorder a snap.

Many convenience features have been incorporated into the 35A44's design. A four-item glow universal remote with DVD controls give you access to the trilingual (English, Spanish, French) icon onscreen display, sleep timer, noise muting, and channel return as well as basics like channel changing, volume, and picture and audio adjustments. There are also parental control options, including V-Chip and channel lock.

♥♥♥♥♥ Good large screen TV at a very reasonable price
This TV has a large sharp picture at a very reasonable price. (Although Toshiba lists this as a 35" TV the screen actually measures a full 36".) Sharp pictures at reasonable prices are typical of Toshiba TVs, which may well be the best buys currently available.

Yes, this model -- despite it's very good large picture -- is not high-definition and it has the traditional 4:3 aspect ratio rather than a widescreen 16:9 ratio. But my cable system currently broadcasts 175 channels in the traditional 4:3 aspect ratio and only 9 widescreen high-definition channels. Isn't this similar to your situation? If so, please note that widescreen 16:9 TVs show smaller pictures with gray bars on the side when displaying traditional 4:3 channels. Furthermore, because the screen on this TV is so large, the picture size with letter-boxed widescreen DVDs is quite acceptable.

Widescreen high-definition broadcasts and widescreen high-definition TVs will be the norm in a few years, at which time the prices of such sets will be significantly lower than they are now. However, with the current situation where most channels still display traditional 4:3 pictures and only a few are in widescreen and high definition, a large screen 4:3 TV is a good economical choice for many people at this time.
