True 1080p 3-Chip D-ILA : JVC DLA-HD350
Introducing the DLA-HD350, a full HD D-ILA front projector with 30,000:1 native contrast ratio, three D-ILA devices, 2x motorized zoom lens HQV Reon-VX video processor,on-screen gamma control, flexible set-up and more. The DLA-HD350 brings Full HD to your Theatre with the 30:000:1 native contrast ratio. The "native" means that it does not rely on an iris mechanism to maximize contrast depending on the average brightness of one scene. This technical sleight of hand employed on other projectors, effectively changes overall luminosity, so that blacks are slightly bleached in bright scenes, while light colors appear duller in dark scenes. There is neither an iris mechanism nor a compromise in the DLA-HD350 projector. D-ILA is a mature technology, perfected by JVC, which can reproduce the brightest, most vivid colors simultaneously with the subtlest shadows, down to the deepest, truest blacks. Only D-ILA can reproduce in full the rich image information contained in a high definition source, be it broadcast or optical disk.

HD-DVD-Player: Toshiba HD-XE1
Toshiba's 1080p-outputting HD DVD player, the HD-XE1, is at last available in the UK. As well as being the first-available 1080p HD DVD player (well, Tosh is the prime mover of the format), the HD-XE1 also betters its cheaper stablemate, the HD-E1, by having the latest version of HDMI - V1.3 - and a number of extras. Both Tosh models can upscale standard-definition DVDs to 720p and 1080i resolutions - output via HDMI - but the HD-XE1 adds full 1080p HD upscaling, as well as play back, and other goodies. There's a 297MHz/12-bit video DAC that supports Deep Color technology - an option added to the HDMI standard in version 1.3 and reckoned by Toshiba to improve colour tones and achieves finer colour gradation.
