Product Description

The Toshiba SD-2150 DVD player features ColorStream component-video output, which allows the video signal to be transferred and processed in separate elements. The result is the highest level of picture quality with remarkable detail and enhanced resolution. The TV you currently own may not have component-video inputs, but your next one probably will, and this player will allow you to take full advantage of this capability (most of Toshiba's current TVs include component inputs). S-video and composite video outputs provide more connection flexibility, and parallel video outputs allow for the transfer of the video signal to two different monitors simultaneously--ideal for multiroom locations. Video Black Level Expansion with Pluge is an important image-enhancing feature. This enhances contrast and deepens blacks, providing more vibrant colors while helping set proper brightness levels. Other important video features include 10-bit, 27 MHz digital-to-audio conversion with a high-resolution filter that provides rapid processing of the digital video, double-speed playback with audio, and multiple-viewing-angle capability (when used with appropriately encoded DVDs). Also included are a bit-rate meter, and A-B repeat to allow you to program a certain segment for repeat playback. The SD-2150 also offers Spatializer virtual surround sound, an effect that creates a simulated surround sound from a Dolby 5.1 channel or two-channel Dolby Digital soundtrack. A 24-bit D/A converter provides a rich sound and clean audio texture. Dolby and DTS coaxial digital outputs, along with a stereo audio output, provide superior connectivity options for home theater audio. For convenience, Toshiba has included a dual-disc, twin-tray system with direct-disc access. You can insert or take out one disc while another is playing, and have them play back-to-back for uninterrupted programming. It's VCD/CD/DVD playback capable, includes an onscreen menu display for easy picture and sound adjustment, and comes with a full-function remote control. Toshiba offers a 90-day warranty on labor and a one-year warranty on parts.
