Bring the Magic of 3D Movies Home with JVC

(PR.co.nz) Bring the ultimate 3D movie experience out of the cinemas and into your living room with the new range of JVC 3D-ready projectors.

The new JVC Direct-Drive Image Light Amplification (D-ILA) projectors help you to recreate the thrill of big screen blockbusters in 3D – all in the comfort of your own home!

With a new generation D-ILA Optical Engine, JVC has dramatically improved projector picture performance. All three top of the range models have native contrast ratios that are unmatched in the industry, with the top model, DLA-X9, delivering 100,000:1 native contrast ratio for unrivalled image clarity.

Each of these projectors is stylish designed and will take centre stage in your lounge or media room, with a centre mounted lens, symmetrical shape and rear input terminals that allow more versatile positioning and mounting options. A glossy black finish cabinet is standard on all models, with white available as an option on the DLA-X3 model.

The D-ILA Device Driver and Wire Gird have been redesigned to reach the purest black level ever, as well as the smoothest gradation of colours. Using a combination of a new Short-Arc High Efficiency UHP Lamp with a 16 Step Lens Aperture (DLA-X3) and 16 Step Lens and Lamp Double Aperture (DLA-X7 and DLA-X9), the native contrast ratio is significantly increased.

The brightness has also been increased to 1,300 ANSI lumens. In addition, Adobe RGB, DCI and sRGB colour profiles allow more accurate colours. Plus, JVC’s double-speed Clear Motion Drive has been further improved to reduce motion blur, with the choice of Frame Interpolation and Black Frame Insertion.

The DLA-X7 and the DLA-X9 have been designed to achieve THX® certification and are in the process of being tested by THX. These projectors have also been designed for ISF certification and will include an ISF C3 mode for professional calibration and 99 screen correction modes to help maximise viewing environments. Together with a 7 Axis Colour Management System, these new models allow the widest range of calibration for the user.

The new flagship projector, the DLA-X9, is built using hand-selected, hand-tested components and achieves an incredible 100,000:1 native contrast ratio that no other three-chip projector in the home theatre market can match. The DLA-X7 offers a 70,000:1 native contrast ratio, while the DLA-X3 offers a 50,000:1 native contrast ratio.

As with previous models, JVC’s contrast ratio numbers are not artificially inflated by electronic circuitry or a dynamic iris, so every frame consistently reproduces peak whites, deep blacks and everything in between.

All three models are compatible with JVC’s PK-AG1 Active Shutter 3D Glasses and PK-EM1 3D Signal Emitter (both sold separately) for 3D presentations. For 3D content, each projector includes HDMI 1.4a inputs and supports Frame Packing (Bluray), Side-by-Side (broadcast) and Above-Below 3D transmissions. An external 3D Signal Emitter (PK-EM1) synchronises the projected image with JVC’s Active Shutter 3D Glasses (PKAG1).

The external 3D signal emitter ensures reliable signal transmission to the 3D glasses for a superior 3D experience, no matter what type of screen is used or how the home theatre has been configured.

The JVC range of 3D-ready projectors are available from electronic stores nationwide.
