JVC DLA HD1 D ILA projector 700 ANSI lumens 1920 x 1080 widescreen High Definition 1080p




The JVC DLA-HD1 is a full HD front projector with a native contrast ratio of 15, 000: 1, a level that ensures outstanding black reproduction without sacrificing picture brightness since there is no iris mechanism.The high native contrast ratio is achieved through the combined use of a new 0.7-inch full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) D-ILA device and a new optical engine. Like all D-ILA-based JVC front projectors and rear projection televisions, the DLA-HD1 uses three D-ILA devices – one each for red, green and blue color reproduction.It offers a 2x zoom lens, a lens shift mechanism, and front fan intake and exhaust for placement flexibility, so its use is not limited to a dedicated home theater room. In addition, the ultra high pressure mercury lamp is easily accessible from a side panel.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars High Marks for JVC, What an awesome product the DLA-HD1
My family is in agreement, This projector is awesome. It delivers everything promised. Black levels are great. Picture is bright and crisp, especially with the Sony Blu-Ray player. This projector is a technological breakthrough to reproduce the picture and contrast of film cinema. We use in a controlled theater environment and it provides stunning performance. Although we are not video geeks, we appreciate fine filmmaking and this projector delivers the resuls we were looking for, although it is a bit expensive. After viewing for a couple of weeks, we are completely satisfied we went with the extra expense of this model.

5 Stars Incredible projector!
I have been watching different content on this projector for a few weeks now. I paired it with a high contrast gray screen to improve blacks. The first few weeks, I watched standard def TV, HDTV, and DVD’s. Obviously, the HD material looked great and even the DVD’s had a nice look.

I finally added a Samsung BD-P2500 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player and grabbed The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe [Blu-ray], Speed Racer (Three-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy) [Blu-ray], and Iron Man (Ultimate Two-Disc Edition + BD Live) [Blu-ray].

Speed Racer is full of color and apt to test the color gamut of most projectors. Red is one of the hardest colors to reproduce and this projector did an outstanding job.

Narnia has an incredible full spectrum of white snow and black and dark gray mountainous areas at the same time stretching the native contrast ratios. I could not have been more impressed being able to see fluctuations in the snow as well as detail in outcroppings of stone.

Iron Man is full of dark scenes and helps to separate the adequate from the amazing when you can see full detail in these clips. It makes me anxious to watch Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy [Blu-ray] in the near future.

I like the range of movement on the lens but the thumb controls for that are loose but since it is more of a “set and forget” type of item, I’m not worried. The added feature of front mounted air intake AND exhaust is a nice touch for those using enclosures.

I fully recommend this projector to anyone that enjoys watching movies. It might be a little overkill for watching TV right now but as the price keeps coming down, there isn’t much reason to look elsewhere.
