Three chip D-ILA projector with a native 4K imaging device, 8K/e-shiftX processing and a BLU-Escent laser light source rated at 20,000 hours. 2,500 lumens, 80,000:1 native contrast and a 65 mm all glass lens. Privately owned and offered through Dreamcrest Audio, individually or within the complete collection. The JVC DLA-NZ8B is a three chip D-ILA projector built around a native 4K imaging device, 8K/e-shiftX processing and a BLU-Escent laser light source rated at 20,000 hours. It is a dedicated cinema room projector rather than a living room unit, and it rewards a dark, properly finished room. This projector belongs to a private client and is offered for sale through Dreamcrest Audio. Mint condition, approximately 250 hours of use, supplied in its original packaging.What it doesThree 0.69 inch D-ILA devices, one each for red, green and blue, run at a native 4096 x 2160. JVC's 8K/e-shiftX stage shifts the image on two axes to place more pixels on screen than the panels alone provide, and the two HDMI inputs run at 48Gbps, so 8K60p and 4K120p sources are accepted directly. A 65 mm all glass lens handles the optics with motorised zoom, focus and shift, which means the projector can usually go where the room allows rather than where the screen dictates.How it performs and where it fitsNative contrast is quoted at 80,000:1, and that figure shapes how a picture reads far more than peak brightness does. Blacks stay black in a darkened room, so this belongs in a space with dark walls, controlled reflections and a screen chosen for the throw. At 2,500 lumens there is comfortable output for roughly 100 to 130 inches on a screen of ordinary gain, and much less headroom where daylight is involved. Frame Adapt HDR reads the content and maps it to the projector, removing most of the manual tone mapping that HDR used to demand.Key featuresThree 0.69 inch 4K D-ILA devices at 4096 x 21608K/e-shiftX processing with 8K60p and 4K120p input supportBLU-Escent blue laser light source rated at 20,000 hours80,000:1 native contrast ratio65 mm all glass lens, x2 motorised zoom and motorised focusPowered lens shift of ±80% vertical and ±34% horizontalHDR10+ and HLG, with Frame Adapt HDRTechnical specificationsBrightness: 2,500 lumensHDMI: 2 inputs, 48Gbps, HDCP 2.3Dimensions: 500 x 234 x 505 mmWeight: 23.1 kgPower consumption: 440 W in use, 0.3 W eco standbyCondition and what is includedMint condition, approximately 250 hours of use, supplied in its original packaging. The owner bought it new about three to four years ago. This unit belongs to a private client and is offered for sale through Dreamcrest Audio, which is not the owner. It is not new dealer stock, and no manufacturer warranty is offered or implied. Condition and inclusions are confirmed to you in writing before purchase.Frequently asked questionsIs this a native 8K projector?No. The three imaging devices are native 4K. The 8K/e-shiftX stage puts additional pixels on screen and the inputs accept a full 8K60p signal, which is why JVC calls it 8K/e-shiftX rather than native 8K.What screen size suits it?In a dark room, 2,500 lumens covers roughly 100 to 130 inches on a screen of ordinary gain. The right answer depends on your throw distance, seating and screen gain, and we are glad to work that through with you.Can I buy it on its own?Yes. It is sold individually, or as part of the complete Home Cinema Collection bundle from the same owner.To ask about condition or arrange a viewing, use the enquiry button on this page.
