Superior color reproduction

■Natural color reproduction

JVC’s unique optical engine produces rich, natural colors with smooth gradations and low noise. With color temperature set to the D65 standard, source media can be faithfully reproduced with the same gradations as the original. As a result, all color gradations are natural and consistent, ensuring optimal cinema reproduction.

■ Analog gradation technology

JVC’s exclusive AG (Analog Gradation) technology

produces highly accurate gradations with low noise,

particularly in darker areas of less than 20% brightness.

■ High contrast ratio of 1500:1

High contrast ratio of 1500:1 for full range gray-scale

reproduction enables the display of subtle details in

the blacks and shows the depth to the image even

■DLA-HD2K color coordinates

3-chip superiority

■Full-color image on the screen

Lower-priced, single-chip models rapidly project the picture one color at a time and rely on the viewer’s eye to blend alternating flashes of red, green, and blue images into desired colors. 3-chip projectors, on the other hand, simultaneously produce images on separate RGB panels inside the projector and then combine the light beams, projecting a full-color image on the screen.

■JVC’s original D.I.S.T.

(Digital Image Scaling Technology)

JVC’s exclusive D.I.S.T. technology consists of IP conversion, pixel density conversion, and enhancer technology. D.I.S.T. fully exploits the advantages of progressive scanning by converting interlace signals to progressive signals. This increases image information relative to the number of pixels to provide smooth, high-definition images.

■DVI-D plug and play (HDCP)

Enables digital-to-digital input for high-quality image reproduction without signal degradation.

■480i, 480P, 720P, 1080i, 1080/24, 25

and 30PsF, and HDTV format compatibility

In addition to DTV signals, analog signals including 480i, 480P, 720P, 1080i, 1080/24, 25 and 30PsF, and HDTV formats can be accepted.

when the scene is dark.

■ True black reproduction

As the D-ILA’s liquid crystals are aligned vertically,

the pixels are “normally black” when no voltage is

applied. As a result, D-ILA technology reproduces

blacks that are truly black. It also offers a uniform

response, irrespective of brightness, which displays

a wide range of intermediate tones.

■ Three chips project a full-color Image

■4-color profile mode

The DLA-HX2U is equipped with a 4-color profile mode to ensure color reproduction with greater fidelity to the original. In addition, it supports a wider variety of colors, enabling it to render image colors that closely match the original source.

■More stable image

Three chips produce better, more stable images, free of flicker and annoying “rainbow effects.”

■Superior color reproduction and smoother images

When compared to single-chip models, 3-chip D-ILAs offer superior color reproduction, better gradation, and smoother images at a competitive cost.

User-friendly design

■Easy installation

Extremely compact and weighing a mere 13 lbs. (5.9 kg), the DLA-HX2U is easy to install and set up. An NSH (high-pressure mercury) lamp keeps running costs to a minimum and lasts for about 2,000 hours of operation. The lamp and air filter can be easily accessed and replaced without removing the projector from the mount.

■GUI on-screen display

A GUI on-screen menu lets you make quick adjustments to various settings. Two menu layers ensure simple, systematic setting operation.
