JVC Projectors, Home Theater, a division of JVCKENWOOD USA Corporation, has launched the industry’s smallest native 4K projectors, the DLA-NZ500 and DLA-NZ700, offering superb 4K HDR images and JVC’s proprietary advanced technology in a new compact design and expanding options for top-tier home theater installations.
“They say good things come in small packages, and this is a perfect example”, said Jamie Pasley, General Manager of JVC Home Theater. “With a 35% reduction in size, we were able to bundle several of JVC’s most recognizable features in a much smaller footprint, allowing for easier installation in confined spaces. With an all Blu-Escent Laser Projector line-up at multiple price points, we’re extending our reach to a larger audience.”
The new DLA-NZ500 and DLA-NZ700 offer a completely redesigned optical unit, lens, and circuit board. With JVC’s exclusive 0.69-inch native 4K “D-ILA” devices, both projectors achieve higher resolution and increased brightness.
Additionally, JVC D-ILA projectors offer fully motorized lenses, pixel adjustment, masking, multiple installation styles, and adjustable aspects. With motorized horizontal/vertical lens shift and extensive zoom, JVC makes it easier to perfectly align the image to the screen regardless of where the projector is mounted. Adding to the flexibility of installation is the redesigned air intake and exhaust setup. This new layout pushes the heat source exhaust at the rear, eliminating the potential impact of the image on the projection screen.
JVCʼs proprietary “BLU-Escent” laser light source technology uses a blue laser diode as its light source, and allows you to experience full-scale high-definition images in a compact design. The DLA-NZ700 achieves a high brightness of 2,300lm, and the DLA-NZ500 at 2,000lm. Both models have a laser life expectancy of approximately 20,000 hours, about 5 ½ times that of the average lamp.
JVC Home Theater Projectors are most recognized for excellence in contrast and deep blacks, and the latest models continue this trend. The DLA-NZ700 features 80,000:1 (with the DLA-NZ500 providing a 40,000:1 ratio) native contrast by simultaneously improving alignment control and pixel flatness, which provides even further realistic darkness with the Deep Black Tone Control feature. When paired with JVC’s “Vivid” picture mode for SDR content, animation appears lifelike and details pop even more..
Although JVC D-ILA Projectors are ready to be used right out of the box, they also offer the ability to personalize them to specific viewing preferences. Using JVC’s intuitive menu options makes changes and installations easier, and settings can be stored and recalled for future viewing quickly and easily. In addition, Control4 is compatible with JVC D-ILA projector models, allowing users to easily stay connected to their home automation systems.
“We are very excited to deliver this unique compact 4K D-ILA Laser Projector to our users across North America and look forward to everyone’s reaction!” Pasley concluded.
