JVC DLA-HD1 review

Licence to kill off DLP

Fantastic contrast ratio ; Great features ; Superb picture quality

The future of home projection as arrived. The DILA engine is a revelation, especially with hi-def images. Simply stunning.

Hook up a kick-ass PC to the HD1, fire up Left 4 Dead or World of Warcraft and you will never, ever, leave your house ever again. Seriously. They’ll have to bring in an IV drip and a catheter to keep you alive. It won’t be pretty. JVC DLA-HD1 is tagged...

JVC DLA-HD1

JVC's DLA-HD1 is a ground-breaking projector that beams out images with extremely natural colours and black levels. That said, it's not quite as sharp or as bright as some of its cheaper rivals.

Extremely deep black levels ; Very natural-looking colours ; Quiet fan

Pictures look a tad soft ; Pricier than some of its 1080p competitors ; Large and bulky

It's a big and bulky machine, though, so it'll be hard to place in the average home, and it's not as bright as some of its rivals. As the images aren't quite as sharp as those on some similarly priced 1080p machines, it doesn't quite get the full...

JVC DLA-HD1

The JVC DLA-HD1 is one heck of a projector, with the best blacks I've yet seen. Detail is exceptional and shadow detail is better than many displays can manage. Aside from the frustrating menu system, I'd be very happy living with this puppy.
