Screen Specs
All include NEC's Capsulated Color Filter technology that offers realistic color reproduction and AccuCrimson technology that creates the "purest reds possible in a plasma display," according to NEC.
The monitor's MASS technology is designed to eliminate jagged lines and correct color bleeds. Enhanced scan conversion technology offers text clarity with small font sizes and 3/2 pulldown enhances the appearance of content originally produced in film.
The displays' color tune technology allows for individual color adjustments without altering the white balance, and gamma technology. All can be configured in either a 2 by 2 or a 3 by 3 matrix without an external processor. The units come equipped with 9W by 9W stereo audio (8W by 8W for the 42XM2) and a programmable timer.
The 42XM2, 50XM3 and 61XM2 run at 22dB and can be wall-mounted. What's more, they can operate in either portrait or landscape orientation.
