HD Features

You get a lot more than an amazing picture with our HD service.
Breathtaking picture quality

Why have the best TV and not the best picture? High-definition television is a high-resolution, digital, wide-screen TV format that delivers twice the color resolution and a picture that is six times sharper than traditional analog television.

Crisp, clean sound

Just like a movie theater, HDTV provides enhanced Dolby Digital 5.1 audio. Just hook up one of our HD receivers to your HDTV and surround sound speaker system, and you'll be immersed in true digital sound!

All the best, from near and far!

Enjoy HD programming from all the locals – ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC and more – plus the cream of the crop with programming from National Geographic, ESPN, CNN, A&E and a whole lot more. All this programming is yours FREE when you have one of our HD receivers.

See more of what you're watching

Thanks to HDTV's larger 16:9 aspect ratio, you'll see 33% more than you would on your old analog television!  New movies and the newest shows from your favorite networks retain the width they are originally shot in, enhancing your home theater experience. Imagine seeing more of a football field or a scenic panorama!
 
Plus, the staggering image quality you get with 1080i resolution that's redrawn on your screen every 1/30th of a second means your picture is sharper and clearer than any picture you're ever experienced.

You don't need to buy anything at all

Simply subscribe to Cox TV with HD service and we'll get you everything you need in one set-top box - there's no need to buy any additional equipment to enjoy everything HD brings home!

Need help? We're here for you

All this new stuff can be confusing, that's for sure. But we're here for you – and we mean right here for you – with local technical support standing by, ready to help you figure things out so you can enjoy your HDTV to its fullest.
