The JVC DLA-HD550  joins it’s “bigger brother” the JVC DLA-HD950 as a praise worthy model for Home Cinema usage.

 

In summary the HD550 is “A simply superb picture, majoring on detail, contrast and sharp edges”.  This projector offers 1080p resolution, motorised lens, shift and zoom controls.

 

We have this unit on demo and expect a lot of phone calls to see it in action!!

We have had these two units in demo now for a couple of weeks and we still remain as impressed with their performance as we were on initial review.

 

The NAD  M15HD has transformed the picture quality of our Runco RS-900 projector and boy does it give our Triad Silver In-Wall speakers a workout steering the sound through the 160 watts per channel by the NAD  M25 - effortless!!

 

 

You have to demo these.

We were given a demo of the Optoma ThemeScene HD86 Projector today and for the first time I didn’t suffer rainbow effect from a DLP projector.  Suddenly the demo became more interesting!

 

Optoma-HD86

To start with it has a very good 700:1 ANSI Contrast ratio, which is backed up by PureMotion2 frame interpolation and extensive CMS and color gamut control.   It also provides fluid and natural moving images by eliminating judder and motion-blurring.

Supplied in two formats one version offers a traditional 1.25x zoom whilst version 2: without standard lens; will offer the choice of three optional lenses. In addition to short throw (0.77:1) and long throw (1.93 -2.9:1) lenses.  ThemeScene will offer an anamorphic lens for fully automated Constant Height Projection

The features list continues:-

  • Optoma ThemeScene HD86 Key Features Unsurpassed 1080P DLP picture quality
  • Full Lens options and lens shift for ease of installation.
  • Realistic Measurable Contrast Performance of 700:1 ANSI Contrast.
  • Pure motion 2 eliminating motion judder and blurring
  • Optoma ThemeScene HD86 Specifications Native Resolution 1080P (1920 x 1080)
  • Price shown with standard lens option (1.54-1.93:1). Can be supplied instead with short throw (0.77:1) or long throw (1.93-2.9:1) lens, see option below
  • 3 x HDMI v1.3

Well, all of the above seems to have worked.  The picture was naturally coloured and with the adjustment available, pin sharp.  Overall, everyone here who saw it agreed it was a very good performance.

We now have the new JVC DLA-HD550 and JVC DLA-HD950 for a couple of days to show to client interested in purchasing one of these leading projectors from JVC.

Demonstrations of the white HD550 and black HD950 will be available throughout today and this evening by appointment and during Saturday 18th Sept between 10.00 am and 5.30 pm. A final chance to have a demonstration will be on Monday morning for a couple of hours after opening before the projectors are sent on to another dealer.

There are many other products to see in out fully fitted lifestyle demo rooms including two ranges of art wall speakers from Artcoustic and Image Audio and the latest wireless plasma from Panasonic the Panasonic TX-P54Z1B.
