DLA-X550Rby JVC
PROS
- Despite being a 1080p-resolution model, the JVC DLA-X550R can accept 4K input signals and HDR10-format high dynamic range content, with its onboard e-shift enhancement for pseudo 4K display.
- The JVC DLA-X550R delivers excellent picture contrast, along with enough brightness to make pictures look good in both dim and dark rooms.
- JVC's Multi Pixel Control feature improves image clarity, particularly with lower-resolution streamed content.
CONS
- The JVC DLA-X550R's Clear Motion Drive setting can give film-based programs an unnatural video-like quality when set to certain modes.
- High-resolution sources such as Blu-ray and streamed Ultra HD programs sometimes take on a slightly enhanced look when the DLA-X550R's e-shift4 up-conversion is enabled.
- The JVC DLA-X550R shows occasional crosstalk when displaying 3D images, though it's no worse in this respect than competing models.

Unlike some other areas where the jump from $1,000 to $4,000 is hard to discern, the JVC makes it easy. Those dark, inky blacks are something that no other projector can do today. Even if you wanted to spend $20,000 on a model, it might beat a JVC in other areas but not in black level.
