Barco RHDM-1701 – amazing color accuracy in a compact size
Kortrijk, Belgium, 6 April 2010 – Barco will premiere the RHDM-1701 at the 2010 NAB Show, Las Vegas, USA. This new 17-inch high-definition reference monitor is a more compact version of the current RHDM-2301, a display solution that has already proven its color accuracy and versatility. Designed on specific request of broadcasting professionals, the RHDM-1701 now brings high-quality reference images to more confined spaces – including OB vans and camera shading positions.
Although broadcasting and post-production professionals have praised the quality of the 23-inch RHDM-2301 reference monitor, they also requested a more compact version that could fit into 19-inch racks. That's why Barco developed the RHDM-1701 – smaller in size, but not in quality or versatility.
As a true Grade-1 LCD display, the RHDM-1701 provides the color accuracy professionals demand. Advanced calibration and stabilization technology keep the colors lasting, ensuring a perfect reference at all times. The motion handling system prevents motion blur and produces CRT-like quality that is second to none. And a native 10-bit panel, calibrated RGB-LED backlights, and 48-bit processing guarantee the highest color accuracy on the market. The RHDM-1701 is available in B and P versions, targeting the broadcasting and post-production markets, respectively.
“The RHDM-1701 is a valuable addition to our portfolio,” says Goran Stojmenovik, Product Manager LCD Displays at Barco. “It perfectly fits the need for compact reference monitors, bringing perfect color accuracy to more confined spaces. Its reduced dimensions, in combination with the advanced motion handling system, make the RHDM-1701 ideal as a real-time reference monitor for fast-moving actions – such as sports games.”
The RHDM-1701 will be on display at the Barco booth (number SL3314) of the NAB Show in Las Vegas (April 12-15).
