Whats the word ; I start talking about the high lumens bluescent LZ NZ3 coincidentally and its hi lumens for HDR and JVC get the hint Or it could be the popularity of this model I read ; yeah lets go with that Seriously they werent kidding when they said the large "N" chassis was for future iterations .. Theyve already been fine tuning the tech between the 2 dlp models released ; which phosphor plate version will they go with ? Hmm ; the dla z1 also has 3000 lumens so maybe stationary ? Quote The new projector is exactly twice as expensive as the company’s first DLP model, but the demand for it turned out to be even higher – people made an advance payment, although there were no reviews yet. The reason for this is the magic word “laser”, or rather the proprietary laser-phosphor light source BLU-Escent, an analogue of which JVC uses in the top model DLA-Z1. It is an analogue, because in DLA-Z1 the phosphor plate, which is illuminated by lasers, is stationary, and in JVC LX-NZ3 it rotates – that is, it is a phosphor wheel. This makes it easier to cool and the entire assembly can be made more compact. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweaky Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 The BLU light thing seems a marketing ploy to me. As a OLD 3 lens CRT PJ owner and calibrator, the best convergence of the 3 different lenses [And resulting in the highest sharpness and definition with a Image] was to De-Focus Blue when converging the the lenses together.....this is the same thing, just with different technology and marketing stuff....nothing special here me thinks, except it's new to the [Laser] technology it's using. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP1 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 If the pricing mentioned in the article is correct, JVC will not be able to keep up with demand. 10K Euro for a 4K, 3 Chip laser - I think it will dominate sales for some time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, it seems like a bargain. Would be interesting to see how it performs against JVC's other models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the N7 to become the entry level machine and still lamp based, hopefully a reduction in price to justify the laser models. And the existing chassis to handle a big lens for the Z1 replacement? If they don't do a spectacular big lens on the 25K euros model (that's 140K aud ha) then I'm not sure what the selling point will be? Hard to know what prices will be here but they are normally pretty good in reference to US and EU pricing. So perhaps 12K for the entry laser but at what contrast cost? then 20-25K for the 15K euro one and 35-40K for the high end one.. They're getting up there, I hope they price them aggressively here we will see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betty boop Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 JVC love their teasers looks like the N9 with a laser and keeping the 4k shift for 8k ? if it has a hdmi 2.1 8k chip set it could technically go beyond 4k for those wanting to do that sort of thing... will this replace the Z1 ? as they say this is the new ultimate ? or will the Z1 get an update as well.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping the punters hooked Al Or [as JVC is a developer of dila with finer and finer pixels over time ] they have moved from 4k upscaling to true 8k ?? They would need a carrot to tempt nx9 owners It must play on their minds that mediatek have done the deed for teles Quote MediaTek’s 8K digital TV system-on-chip (SoC) manufactured with 12nm technology, the MediaTek S900, has entered volume manufacturing with TSMC, according to the companies. Would give a trickle down technology to the cheaper lines over time as the laser models will have a good markup initially . dual iris models we have now lose a bit when we have instantaneous laser brightening and dimming so thats what will be their marketing no doubt ?

[QUOTE="Kris Deering, post: 60960314, member: 45946"] Also, got a box tonight containing a certain something from a company that is spelled with three letters for review. Looking forward to sharing more down the road!! [/QUOTE] seems JVC like few others have pulled out of cedia... so that probably wont happen... and there is this... all from the AVS 4k projectors coming thread... [QUOTE="thtdadav, post: 60959559, member: 9558720"] I heard from a reliable source that JVC will be holding a small event to announce their new projectors around the same date they were to be at CEDIA. Most likely delivered virtually via a prominent AV dealer and YouTube Channel. [/QUOTE] 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the timing of Cedia isn't always convenient for manufacturers. JVC rushed the the release for the current projectors for Cedia 2018 before they were ready and had a number of issues. At least this way they can do the release when all the bugs have been ironed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucmor444 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I wouldn't assume the new JVC wasn't ready for Cedia. Everything simply points to Covid 19 concerns. Seeing it appears JVC have shipped at least one unit to a reviewer then they may be confident its ready now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP1 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Covid could be a factor but I wouldn't assume any product is ready for world wide distribution just because a test sample has been made available for review. It is the manufacturing and supply chain issues that cause most problems as they did last time. But since JVC seem to be taking control of the release date, they will have most likely have ensured by then that production bugs will be minimised.

betty boop Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 from that thread, jvc is not alone... also others exiting cedia ..... "Sound United, JVC, Lutron, Crestron, Trinnov" many more apparently ... delta being in full swing probably doesnt help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucmor444 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 It has been reported on AVSforums by respected posters that if JVC has a pj at a show like Cedia then it is a production model and not a test model. In noting that it is also recognised that it may be some time before units are available to the public. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucmor444 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Many are expecting Cedia to be cancelled. Storm Audio has also pulled the plug. That means the 3 updates I was looking forward to (JVC, Trinnov and Storm Audio) will not be announced at this show. I am sure we will get the updates anyway though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
