Marantz VP-12S4MBL DLP Projector

Can anything be better than earlier projectors in our VP12S series? We think you'll find the VP12S4 simply jaw-dropping. We began with the newest "Dark Chip 3" version of Texas Instruments DLP processor augmented by a seven-segment color wheel for minimal pixelization and better dither and video noise reduction. We added a new lens to the already legendary array of Konica-Minolta optics. And we improved flexibility by increasing vertical lens shift adjustments to allow more flexible mounting. But the crowning achievement is a completely new video processing engine co-developed by Marantz and Gennum. It is the most powerful video processor ever included in a consumer or professional video display device and offers true motion adaptive deinterlacing of all non-progressive sources HD included with inverse telecine (3:2 pulldown), jagged edge reduction circuitry, true 10 bit color depth (over 1 billion colors!) and a new level of installer flexibility. Until you?ve seen the VP12S4's smoothness and film-like realism, you simply aren't equipped to select a video projector.
