JVC issues revised specifications, new details on D-ILA HD projectors

JVC has pushed out a release today clarifying some of the claims it made back at CEDIA 2008, and by and large, it's things that prospective buyers will want to hear. The company introduced an HD foursome of projectors in Denver earlier this month, but apparently, some of the specifications it included weren't, shall we say, final. Looking specifically at contrast ratio, we see the DLA-HD750 and DLA-HD20 jumping from 30,000:1 to 50,000:1, the DLA-RS10 going from 17,000:1 to 32,000:1 and the DLA-HD350 doubling up from 15,000:1 to 30,000:1. Also of note, JVC is now highlighting the 16-step fixed aperture in the DLA-HD750 and DLA-RS20 that "helps eliminate extraneous light that can reduce contrast levels and allows adjustment of brightness to suit user preferences." As for updated prices, you can expect to pay around $6,000 for the DLA-HD350, while the DLA-HD750, DLA-RS10 and DLA-RS20 come in at $8,000, $6,000 and $8,000 in order of mention.

Wheres the sub $2k 1080p to compete with the epson/mits?

Errrr, JVC isn't interested in sub 2k. There are enough mfrs out there for that
market.

If you want THE BEST 1080p for the money, it begins and ends with JVC.
Awesome projectors

Sorry Badger, Im sure Runco and Sony both have extremely high end projectors that JVC cannot touch. I understand JVC is great with their RS1 and RS2 but dont make the mistake of saying their the best.

DLA-HD750 and DLA-HD20 jumping from 30,000:1 to 50,000:1, the DLA-RS10 going from 17. What is next, the DLA-HD20 will soon go pretty close to 100,000?
