Sony’s Component Composite Processor (CCP2) digitally cleans the input signal for further processing in BRAVIA Engine, while Sony’s Digital Reality Creation (DRC) takes the clean signal and generates High Definition picture. Sony’s Multi-Image Driver-X (MID-X) then enhances the High Definition picture by sharpening the vertical and horizontal edges. Sony’s BRAVIA Engine also boasts the industry’s first 14-Bit panel driver for enhanced reality and depth in picture dimension. As a result, you enjoy stunningly sharp images, brilliant contrast and less noise distortion - whatever the signal source - for the most realistic picture you’ll ever experience!

This is in addition to the crisp details, outstanding contrast, eye-popping colours and dramatically fine detail reproduction that DRC-MF circuitry is known for.
