Reaching New Levels of Brilliance
Reviewed By Our Editors
You’ll be getting the full picture with the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV.
Combining some of the most advanced HDTV technologies available and a feature set that’s on par with the best, it’s so easy to fall in love with the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV. Simply put, it’s one of the best deals out in the market today, and one that should merit serious consideration from consumers.
It takes a single glance to tell that the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV is going to look good in your living room. Its beauty lies in its simple design. It is sleek, fresh and modern. Furthermore, the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV features slim dimensions and a relatively light weight of 83 pounds, which means finding room and positioning it properly won’t be too hard.
Simply describing how beautiful the images look on the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV is not enough to do it justice. To see is to believe, and in the case of this particular HDTV, that phrase holds some real meaning. Watching an intense action movie filled with so many special effects on the TV’s beautiful 46-inch screen is a spectacular experience. Everything comes to life with the vibrant range of colors and hues that the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV is capable of displaying. The sense of realism is simply staggering.
With the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV’s cinematic 16:9 aspect ratio and full 1080p display, viewing your favorite DVDs or playing the latest videogames with all their fancy graphics becomes a totally awe-inspiring experience. It feels like you’re not in your living room anymore, and instead, you’re visiting new worlds that you’ve never been to in your entire life. The level of detail you will find will literally take your breath away.
With its 8000:1 contrast ratio and 550-nit brightness, images on the Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV never look flat. A low contrast ratio results in muddy images that look lifeless and dull. Thankfully, that is not the case with this HDTV. Instead, everything looks as if it’s ready to pop out of the screen in a moment’s notice. Additionally, 178-degree viewing angles ensure that you’ll be able to see the action from anywhere in the room.
The Sceptre X46BV FULLHD LCD HDTV has a fast response time of 6ms, which lets it display fast-moving images found in intense movies and games smoothly. Image ghosting can be attributed to a slow response time that prevents smooth transitioning from image to image. With the fast response time found in this HDTV, you’re afforded a ghost-free viewing experience.
There is no lack of connectivity options as well. The unit includes a 5.1 digital audio output, an all-in-one ATSC/NTSC/QAM tuner and most importantly, 3 HDMI inputs for receiving high-fidelity audio and video signals.

| Just boxed it up and am awaiting an RMA from Sceptre which is already late. They claim to send an RMA back within 24 hours and also told me they would send UPS to pick this package up (i.e. no cost to me) but still I haven't heard anything. That said, the picture was very nice except for the Yellow line down the right half of the screen. Honestly, it wasn't that noticeable except on Blue backgrounds but that's NOT the point. The unit has a defect and I paid for a new unit so expect them replace it at no cost to me. I gave it 3 stars for now but if I don't hear back from them in a day I will be returning this to TD and buying from a major manufacturer like Phillips or Sony and this rating go lower. |

| We bought this HDTV back in November 2007 (from another source, a mass market retail membership club). Without the benefit of an HD capable source (ie HD-DVD, Blu-Ray or HDTV), we have not 'exercised' this beast to its fullest. Except my son - who figured out how to use this as a 1080p 46'' digital monitor for his SLI capable computer. Leave it to the kids...Anyway, his images are fantastic and the screen easily keeps up with the most strenuous game. The annoying power supply buzz is in this unit also - only an issue at start-up, really. The 5.1 surround of our home theatre masks the noise, anyway. Seems to dimish with age and power-on time. Definitely a nice unit - more so for the price. We've had Sceptre monitors before - a 19'' CRT which died after 5 years. Hope their LCD technology lasts longer, but in 5 years, who knows what will be the standard for HD? |

| I bought the Sceptre 46'' after a long and through search process. The tv arrived in less then 2 days from purchess. I have everything hooked up to my Yamaha RX-V663 A/V receiver and my Dayton Audio 10 speaker surround sound. I put in a really good action movie, sat back in my chair and nearly cr@@@@@ myself at the full HD picture and full HD sound... The picture is incredable!!! |

| After researching for a long time I finally pulled the trigger on this TV, and was I not disappointed. This is the best value for a 1080p Tv out there. Great picture, tons of inputs, and easy to use. I had none of the buzzing from the power supply people complained about. The tuner is a little slow, but for a TV this size I expected it. The only complaint I have is the adapative contrast is not the best, but can easliy be turned off so that the TV isnt constantly trying to lighten and darken the screen. |

ATSC - Means 2009
Digital TV Ready
Buy with confidence that ATSC TVs are designed for the future!
The ATSC Standard for Digital
Television (DTV) encompasses a number of Standards, Practices, and
Guidelines for Digital Television. What it means for today's television
consumer is that ATSC TVs are ready for the future! They comply with
the requirements for the transition to Digital TV sets and all digital
transmission to occur by February 17th, 2009. ATSC Digital Ready TVs
have digital tuners already. TVs and related Tuner products that are
not ATSC will require a separate digital tuner after the transition date. |

How Compatible Is HDMI?
HDMI is fully backward compatible with PCs, displays and consumer
electronics devices incorporating the Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
standard. Both HDMI and DVI were pioneered by Silicon Image and are based on
TMDS®, Silicon Image's powerful, high-speed, serial link technology. HDMI
supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel
digital audio on a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and
supports 8-channel digital audio, and with 5 Gbps of bandwidth, HDMI can
accommodate future enhancements and requirements. Because HDMI was designed
specifically for consumer electronics applications, it offers an array of
additional consumer enhancements. As digital content can manifest itself in
a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, HDMI-enabled systems will
automatically configure to display content in the most effective format. In
addition, if implemented in a specific device, HDMI enables a single remote
point and click, allowing manufacturers to deliver home theater systems that
automatically configure from a single command from a remote control --
turning on or off the components necessary to view a DVD, listen to a CD, or
watch cable or satellite TV.
What is the difference between HDMI 1.3 and HDMI 1.3a, or 1.3b?
For consumers, there is no difference between HDMI version 1.3 and 1.3a or
1.3b. These minor revisions to the specification typically relate to
manufacturing or testing issues and do not impact features or functionality
in a specific product. In addition, HDMI Licensing, LLC is actively working
with manufacturers to reduce confusion for consumers by de-emphasizing
version numbers and focusing instead on product features and functionality.
How can I identify which HDMI products
support a specific feature, such as DVD Audio or Deep Color?
The key for consumers to remember is that HDMI has consistently enabled a
variety of the most innovative new technologies (whether they are DVD Audio,
SACD, 1080p/60, etc.). However, in many cases, it is up to each manufacturer
to choose which features to implement in any given product. The manufacturer
can choose the mix of features that makes sense for its customers and
products. So, customers must choose devices that have the features that they
want (instead of focusing on which version of HDMI is implemented by the
device.). Consumers interested in confirming whether a particular consumer
electronics product supports DVD-Audio or any other feature over HDMI are
urged to review users’ manuals and product reviews, or check with
manufacturers directly.
What Is Firmware Upgradeable?
Many of today's electronics product are designed for today's standards.
Yet like personal computers, they have advanced capabilities that will let
them be upgraded for use with new technologies and standards. The
ability to upgrade the firmware of an electronics product allows you to
extend the useful lifespan of the device you purchase, and be able to expect
support for many (if not all) of the emerging new standards.
What is the difference between Active HDMI and Passive HDMI?
There is no active or passive HDMI in the HDMI specification. These terms
apply to cables. Active cables have built-in electronics to enable long
cable runs, and typically these cables require a power supply. These cables
use active electronics to help push the signal farther than typical passive
cables. |
| What Is
High Definition And How Is It Different From Standard Definition?
High Definition or "HD" is a
technological leap forward from standard definition, with up to 6x the
picture resolution, so that what you see is sharper and more realistic. Regular TVs and the TV channels you watch
at home are typically in standard definition (unless you watch HD channels).
DVD are also in standard definition. Standard definition (480i & 480p)
is lower quality than high definition. Many older TV sets are standard
def, and can only show standard def content (programming). Many new
TVs are called High Definition TVs (HDTV). They are capable of showing
high def content in: 720p, 1080i, and 1080p, all high definition
formats, but 1080p provides the highest picture quality of them all.

A Quick Guide To TV Definition Terms
HDTV - (High Definition) television monitors reveal either 720 progressive
(720p), or a minimum of 1080 interlaced lines, known as 1080i. An HDTV will
show 540 lines at a time. These resolutions create extraordinarily sharp,
lifelike images as well as the truest and most vivid colors ever seen on
a television screen.
EDTV - stands for Enhanced Definition Television. EDTV monitors display
at least 480 progressive lines (480p). Because EDTV shows more lines simultaneously
than SDTV, its pictures are sharper, richer and more realistic.
SDTV - Standard Definition TV is what’s rapidly becoming old-fashioned television.
Although SDTV offers a decent picture we’ve grown accustomed to, it
features up to 480 interlaced lines (480i), but can show only 240 of them
at any given time. Although SDTV produces a sharp picture and good color,
its performance is dramatically inferior to HDTV or EDTV.

About HDTV Viewing Angles
The Viewing Angle of any TV is an important specification. The wider
the viewing angle, the more enjoyable your experience. Viewing angles
above 150° means you can view your TV from a reasonable range - from the
front and off to the sides. However, viewing angles above 170° are
best! Many of today's Plasma and LCD HDTVs offer viewing angles of
178°, and their images do not suffer from degradation at very high viewing
angles. LCD TVs were originally designed for a one user
experience, as a computer monitor, but the technology has kept pace with the
demands for ever increasing viewing angles, and most offer excellent viewing
experiences. Between LCD and Plasma; Plasma TVs have the advantage,
but by a small margin.
Viewing angles are not an issue with
projectors because the light source is coming from in front of the screen,
and not from behind. However, the surface on which you project (screen or
wall surface) may have a slight impact on viewing angles, so it is important
to choose the best screen possible. |

TechTip:
Cleaning Your LCD Monitor or TV
Now that you have your new LCD Monitor or Widescreen TV, it is important to
use the right products to clean it. The wrong cleaner can damage the
surface of your display. However, there are many new cleaning products on the market designed especially for
LCD displays. We recommend using a soft, lint-free cloth and a special LCD
cleaner. (You can also use a cleaner that
contains any of the following: Water, Vinegar (mixed with water), or Isopropyl alcohol). BUT Do Not Use cleaners that contain any of the following agents: Acetone, Ethyl alcohol, Ethyl acid, Ammonia, Methyl chloride!
Important:
Do not spray any liquids directly on the LCD screen. Always apply the
solution to your cloth first, not directly to the parts you are cleaning.
Always use a soft cotton cloth. Some materials, such as paper towels or old
rags can cause scratches and damage the LCD screen.

LCD Technology: Response Time - Enabling
crisp full-motion video
With the recent widespread use of PC and online games, and PCs equipped with
DVD drives give users more opportunities to see moving images such as those
in 3D games or action movies on screen. This increase in motion picture
content means computer monitors must be able to display not only still
images, but moving ones as well. Manufacturers and IT publications often
cite a fast response time as an indication that a display can play videos or
games with little or no blurring. Hence, we would like to share with you
what response time is, and how helpful it is in determining how well an LCD
display (TV or Monitor) can portray moving images.
