I just read the review of JVC DLA-HX1U in the Jan. issue of Widescreen Review, wow what a great review! I'm sure most of you read this review already and some may own this projector, is this projector that good? I never can find one to look at at CES. I don't remember ever reading a projector review that made me want to go out and buy the product, until now. The author Bill Cushman was very detailed in his evaluation. It appears from the review that just about every aspect of this projector is excellent despite a contrast ratio that is "only" very good on all but the darkest scenes and merely "adequate on those"! About the only thing needed was calibration to D65 to "deliver a smooth, colorful, beautiful image with stunning detail and virtually no artifacts"! Wow is this to good to be true? He didn't use external lens or filters to achieve the great image!
At CES I felt the 3 chip DLP projectors stole the show. The Marantz was absolutely beautiful but to high priced and the Dwin looked wonderful also.
I for one can't handle the distraction of 1 chip rainbow artifacts so I must look to LCD or LCOS projectors for reasonably priced projectors. Love the 3 chip DLPs but way out of my budget.
I will be seeing a Sony HS20 today at a dealer in my area but after being blown away by this JVC review I wonder, can this JVC be that good?
