Deep Colour
1131 831 531
Pioneer AV receivers support 36-bit Deep Colour, featuring
smooth gradation steps with more accurate precision of
brightness and colour information, resulting in superbly
detailed, natural colour.
"x.v.Colour"
1131 831 531
Pioneer AV receivers support "x.v.Colour",
which almost doubles the range of colours
(known as the "gamut") that can be accurately captured, and
reproduced on a compatible display, thereby more closely
matching the natural characteristics of the human eye.
* "x.v.Colour" only available for playback of discs recorded with AVCHD
devices. "x.v.Colour" and the "x.v.Colour" logo are trademarks of Sony
