Product Specifications

The Sony KV-27V66 is a super TV on its own. But once you start plugging your DVD, satellite system, laserdisc player and more into the S-Video slot, the system gets even better. The Digital Comb Filter ensures maximum picture detail and resolution. Freeze Memo lets you freeze what's on screen and view it in PIP window, while programming continues on the main screen. Speed Surf allows for quick scanning of channels at the touch of a button. And the DAC Speaker System provides resonant bass, clear midrange and separate tweeters designed to balance out the sound. Plug into Sony and see how good TV can really be.
