LAS VEGAS, Jan. 9, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Maxent, a leading provider of value-priced flat-panel display solutions for consumers, today announced the expansion of its line of feature-rich flat panel digital televisions with the addition of the 22- and 32-inch WXGA LCD TV/DVD combination televisions (ML-2251HLT, ML-3251HLT) at the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Delivering value and performance to the price-sensitive consumer market, these full-featured, widescreen HDTV-ready LCD TV/DVD combination displays combine a high-performance LCD television with a full-function DVD player and incorporate bottom-mounted speakers into a single, compact, ultra-sleek all-in-one portable video entertainment solution.
Value-priced at $899 and $1,099 both the ML-2251HLT and the ML-3251HLT boast physical native resolutions of 1366 x 768 pixels and incorporates 4H filters, provides 3:2 and 2:2 pull-down, adaptive motion de-interlacing, variable aspect ratio and an IIS(tm) (Intelligent Image Scaling) Engine to provide outstanding video quality and edge smoothing. The value-packed ML-2251HLT and ML-3251HLT widescreen LCD TV/DVD combo televisions feature standard NTSC and ATSC tuners, infrared pass through, image shift burn-in protection, advanced audio processing, and a wide variety of connectivity options including HDMI picture-in-picture, RGB input, composite AV/S-video, dual HD component video input, discrete audio inputs, and advanced black level extension. The DVD player plays multiple digital media arrangements and supported disc types include but are not limited to CD/R, CD/RW and DVD-R/DVD-RW.
"The adoption rates of compact flat panel televisions have grown exponentially in the mainstream consumer market and consumers are beginning to look toward the next step in technology advancement - the convergence of complementary technologies into more compact, all-inclusive solutions," explained Brian Ballard, Vice President of Maxent. "Our new ML-2251HLT and ML-3252HLT TV/DVD combinations address the desire of our customers to have a complete, portable video solution that can be used to bring video entertainment into places that are too small for traditional video entertainment systems such as in dorm rooms and bedrooms, and even to locations such as kitchen and bathroom counter tops. The combination of the robust feature set, outstanding video performance and budget-friendly pricing allow consumers to enjoy alternative and contemporary HDTV solutions. As we push forward we will continue to provide enhanced picture quality, drive into new regions of esthetic design and add larger screen sizes to provide our consumers with a wide variety of flat-panel options to customize their home theaters."
