DLA-RS3200

I have a JVC DLA-RS3100

I purchased a JVC DLA RS3200 (same as JVC NZ800) - that is an 8K projector; It is expensive (and heavy) but an amazing projector. There is a 4k version as well which is materially less expensive. I'd get it in a heartbeat again.

Finished my home theater rebuild. Went from a Sony XRD 1080p to a DLA NZ800 8K projector, 150” 16:9; Marantz Cinema 30, JBL Synthesis 7.2.4 speaker set up with two HSU VTN TF1 600W subwoofers. It is amazing. Total spent $50,000 on equipment, custom carpentry, paint, new carpet, and new chairs (September). Still missing a couple speakers due to JBL Backorder.

We splurged on a JVC DLA-RS3200 (same as the NZ800) which currently retails for $19K and a 144” 16:9 Stewart screen which was $3k. Contrast, brightness, and black levels are amazing. For our dedicated theater room it was worth every penny. We watch movies, TV, and play games on Switch and PS5.

You definitely want to consider the SXRD-based projectors from SONY and the DILA-based projectors from JVC. Having come from a long history of owning SONY projectors, I can say the the JVCs have a much better black level and contrast as well as very good tone-mapping – key to getting the best out of HDR sources with a projector. A JVC NZ8 or RS3200 would be what I am currently using and would recommend in that price range.

A 4K projector for an 8K price? No thanks. I'd pick up a JVC DLA-RS3100K and tell that salesman to kick rocks.

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.
