JVC's DLA-RS2 gets a Cinemascope update

JVC DLA-RS2 projector
JVC's 3-panel LCoS 180p DLA-RS2 is a natural fit for the Richie Rich CEDIA crowd, so it's natural to throw this bit in while we're still coming down from the show. At the $9,000 price point, doing a constant-height 2.35:1 projection setup on the cheap isn't exactly an option, so JVC has thrown in an RSAL2 anamorphic lens and an RSVP2 processor (which does look an awful lot like a DVDO VP50) for your viewing pleasure. Other than those features, things look pretty much the same, which is no knock on the well-respected pj known for bright (and dark), colorful images.

Runco now shipping its THX certified, 1080p Video Xtreme projector lineup

Runco -- those folks who make the mesmerizing projectors that only A-class celebrities, former Gizmondo execs, and foreign leaders can afford -- are offering yet another bevy of luscious PJs for us to drool over. Touted as the "world's first 1080p HD video display products to achieve THX certification," the Video Xtreme lineup of DLP projectors have survived the rigorous testing necessary for any product to get that oh-so-coveted THX logo slapped on it, and now they're all ready to jazz up your home theater (and drain your wallet). Each model boasts Runco's own CineWide (with or without AutoScope) technology, which reproduces 2.35:1 films with "unparalleled accuracy," eliminating those pesky black bars without taking a hit in the quality department. They also sport the firm's DHD controller, HDMI inputs, and a variety of CinOptx zoom lenses to fit nearly any application. You can grab this highly prized goodness for just $16,995 if you shoot for the low-end VX-2000d, while the more luxurious units will run you $34,995 (VX-6000d), $44,995 (VX-22d), $79,995 (VX-44d), or $99,995 (VX-55d).
