Features & Benefits

With VIErA CAST™ technology, you can enjoy online content such as videos and photos through an easy-to-use web interface that's built into the Home Theatre. The new Panasonic VIErA CAST allows you to access popular sites YouTube and Picasa utilising your Blu-ray Home Theatre System

BD-Live

BD-Live functionality is available on this product BD-Live* lets users access the Internet to download data such as images and subtitles, and join in quizzes and multi-player interactive games that are linked to bonus movie content contained on Blu-ray DiscsTM. BD-Live also supports BONUSVIEW.

(Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for HD)

To get the best HD images from a BD-Video disc, you need a player that renders high-quality progressive images, expresses motion smoothly, and draws sharp diagonal lines. P4HD processes more than 15 billion pixels per second and applies the optimum processing to every pixel in the video data on the disc. The result is images with exceptional resolution. This is Blu-Ray, this is high definition.

Precise Pixel Generation

BD-Video supports a number of formats. For example, highest-quality format 1920 x 1080 pixels, 1080P can be recorded at any of four different frame rates - 59.94i, 50i, 23.976p and 24p - and the compression format can be MPEG2, MPEG4 AVC or VC-1. The BD-Home Theatre must detect these instantly and perform progressive conversion where necessary.

Both for the de-interlacing and scaling, super-high-speed P4HD generates each pixel correctly according to information obtained from up to 60 surrounding pixels. Applying progressive processing to huge amounts of data, it delivers images of striking beauty.

148.5MHz/12bit Video D/A Converter

SC-BT207 incorporates a 148.5MHz, 12bit Video D/A Converter from Analog Devices Co. Ltd. that provides high-quality 4x oversampling for 1080i/720p output. NSV (noise shaping video) processing shifts the noise component to an unused band to further boost the signal-to-noise ratio. And finally, we added extremely fine 12bit signal processing that renders ultra-fine images with smooth gradation. Thanks to technologies like these, the SC-BT207 can theoretically reproduce up to nearly 4400 billion colours.

SD Card Slot with AVCHD Support for Photo & Video Viewing

You can view your photos and video images on your television from SD Card. AVCHD Playback means your SD Card High Definition Camcorder SD card can be quickly and easily viewed on your TV from your SC-BT207 Blu-ray Home Theatre

192kHz/24bit Audio D/A Converter for All Channels

The SC-BT207 uses a 192kHz/24bit D/A converter for each of the eight channels to achieve truly superb surround sound. The D/A converter uses Advanced Segment D-A processing, which applies multi-bit processing to establish the audio reference and 1bit processing to render the delicate nuances. These combine to create a remarkably beautiful sound that has both power and purity.

Bamboo Diaphragm Speaker

Use of rigid, low-density bamboo in the woofer and tweeter cones of the center and front speakers helps achieve a highly responsive sound.

Auto Spreaker Set Up

Optimum Speaker setting is easily achieved without any cumbersome setting procedures.

Kelton Subwoofer

Thanks to a Kelton subwoofer, the SC-BT207 outputs deep, thunderous bass sounds that make viewing a truly awesome entertainment experience. The Kelton subwoofer has two internal chambers. A drive unit mounted in the rear chamber vibrates the front chamber, causing a large, 25cm Passive Radiator in the front chamber to vibrate and produce bass sounds. Because the front chamber functions as an acoustic filter, there is minimal unwanted noise. The thinness and high compliance of the passive radiator help achieve an extremely clean, powerful and responsive bass sound.
