DLA-NZ7

I have this and love it, but I think the newer line (NZ500-NZ900) has lower input lag. Gaming is fine on the NZ7 but improved on the newer units.

Other option could be a JVC NZ7, previous generation. Unlike the newest generation NZ700, they did support 3D, 8K eShift and 4K120. One of my distributor still shows it as available.

4k120 already exists on many models... My jvc nz7 has it. The Sony competitor to that model does too. Both under $10k from an installer.

The Sony is the way to go here. The JVC has great black levels, but the Sony is much more balanced. Both will blow away the Chinese DLPs. True 4K with much better tone mapping, color, contrast, processing, optics, build quality, warranty, and support. If you can swing higher the additional brightness and even better optics of the Bravia 8 will be worth it on a screen of that size.

JVC and Sony are the only native 4K options under $100K. Sony is by far the best for gaming with a sub 12ms input lag and excellent all round performance. The JVC can be better for Blu-ray, especially if you’re hiring a 1st class calibrator. However, I find most prefer the well rounded performance of the Sony. The new Bravia 7 (XW5100) has become my favorite bang for the buck projector.

If that starguard service plan doesn't include reprogramming or debugging issues with the remote, I'd say nay. Oh and projector calibration. Otherwise, everything seems pretty reasonable. It's really just that projector and screen driving up costs. Unless you're simply way more of a videophile than an audiophile, I'm not sure I'd ever recommend spending such a huge chuck on the video side of things. Btw, I spent $500 on a silver ticket screen to pair with my ~$9k MSRP JVC NZ7 and I'm blown away by how good it looks. Just FYI. If you're wanting to cut costs, getting a cheaper screen is a good way to go about that.

JVC….end of. My NZ7 blows me away

JVC laser 4K native ——that is all you need to know

Stacked (dual) JVC NZ7 projectors at 150”.

That 150" screen looks small in the first couple pictures, which sounds silly. What are the seating distances? edit: And given the title where is the picture of the projector? I am in the middle of a theater renovation but using the outgoing JVC NZ7. This setup looks nice. Your "rear" atmos speakers look pretty far forward, especially considering the back row.
