3 Native 1920 x 1080p
D-ILA Chips
Thanks to the newly developed HD D-ILA
devices, the native resolution of the DLA-HD2K is
1920 x 1080p, the extreme HD resolution
available today for home theater projector
applications. This makes the system suitable
not only for high-end home theater use but also
for critical viewing venues such as museums
and postproduction screening rooms.
Cost-effective NSH Lamp
To ensure lower running costs, the DLA-HD2K
uses a 250W ultra high-pressure mercury
NSH lamp, which should be replaced after
approximately 2,000 hours of operation. And in
most applications, the homeowner can easily
change the lamp without removing the projector
from its mounts.
D-ILA. The Most Advanced LCOS
Technology On The Market Today
JVC pioneered the use of LCOS (Liquid Crystal
on Silicon) technology and is the world’s leading
supplier of LCOS projectors. JVC’s patented
D-ILA chips are the most highly refined form
of LCOS, offering unique performance
characteristics not found elsewhere. The DLA-
HD2K also boasts optimum color illumination
and a newly developed projection lens for its
optical system that is explained below. This
combination of advanced technologies allows
the DLA-HD2K to realize a high contrast ratio of
2000:1 and breathtaking color reproduction.
■
Optimum Color Illumination
is achieved from an economical ultra
high-pressure mercury NSH lamp that uses
illumination optics to optimize the f-number
for each primary color. This exclusive JVC
process ensures optimum contrast of
individual colors and a D65 color
temperature that provides vivid, natural-
looking color reproduction.
■
Newly Developed Projection Lens
employs a 10-group, 13-layer 100% glass lens
with an aluminum tube and anti-flare finish.
This high-quality construction embodies
JVC’s no-compromise approach to answering
the performance potential of HD-compatibility.
The optimized lens aperture is also carefully
calibrated to match the zoom position.
Finally, a home cinema
projector with such stunning
resolution, it will “wow”
even the toughest critics.

Exclusive Digital Video Processor
The DLA-HD2K is equipped with a digital video
processor co-developed with Faroudja
®
, a
company renowned worldwide for creating
powerful processing technologies. This
exclusive JVC digital video processor can be
connected to various sources including 480i,
480p and 576i SD signals, as well as 720p and
1080i HD signals. Faroudja’s color matrixing
provides accurate color profiles for NTSC and
HDTV, allowing the processor to convert
standard analog and digital DVI video signals to
a high-resolution digital video signal that can be
transmitted via the DVI-D connector to the
projector and is fully HDCP compliant. This
processor also allows for detailed video
adjustment to suit viewer preferences, and user
setup between it and the projector can be
profiled. Furthermore, the processor features
motion adaptive de-interlacing with DCDi and
3:2 pull-down technology to ensure error-free
progressive signals.
Convenient, Space-Saving
2-Piece Design
Unlike bulky one-piece units, the projector head
of the DLA-HD2K is only 11.75" W x 5.25" H x
14.1875" D and weighs a mere 13 lbs. This
smaller size allows for less conspicuous and
more flexible installation as well as easier ceiling
mounting. The projector head is connected to a
standard rack-mountable electronics unit by a
single zero-loss digital cable (DVI-D) transmitting
the 1080/60p signal. The projector head and
electronics unit can be separated by up to 160 feet
— an ideal configuration that keeps the cabling
to other electronic components to an absolute
minimum while preserving full digital quality at
the projector head.
JVC Exclusive 3-Chip D-ILA
(Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier)
■
Three D-ILA chips:
JVC’s exclusive
3-chip D-ILA technology produces rich,
natural colors without the annoying flicker
or “rainbow effect” that plagues single-
panel projectors. Images are as smooth as
film, boasting incredible detail and vibrant,
breathtakingly natural colors.
■
Cinema-quality picture with no
visible grid:
There is no visible grid or
“screen door effect” with JVC’s D-ILA.
Since the gaps between pixels are not
noticeable, the picture is extremely
smooth. You can enjoy the benefits of
both film-like resolution and accurate
reproduction of natural colors.
■
Superior Color Reproduction:
JVC’s
unique optical engine produces rich,
natural colors with smooth gradations and
low noise. By setting the color temperature
at the D65 standard, source media can be
faithfully reproduced with the same
gradations as the original picture. D65
color temperature is the home theater
standard. This makes all color gradations
natural and consistent, including absolute
black and absolute white. Furthermore,
JVC’s exclusive AG* technology produces
highly accurate gradations with low noise,
particularly in darker areas of less than
20% brightness.
*Analog gradation
■
True black reproduction:
One
important characteristic of D-ILA devices
is that the crystals are aligned vertically,
meaning that the D-ILA technology can
reproduce blacks that are truly black. It also
offers a uniform response, irrespective of
brightness, so it can display a wide range
of intermediate tones.
