SIM2 Multimedia Grand Cinema C3X LITE DLP Projector

The core and most critical component in a Home Cinema Front Projection unit has always been its light engine. Image accuracy of a projector is governed by the quality of this piece of precision optical engineering. A delicate balance is required between light engine, DLP™ chipset and control electronics, in order to optimize the performance of each. Building on its heritage of high-end light engine design, SIM2 developed a new innovative system to re-size the illumination optical path whilst maintaining BOTH its length (necessary for correct picture aberration control) AND its compactness (required for installation and interior-design constraints). This folded light path, patented and named ALPHA Path™, is the result of SIM2's advanced R&D optical and thermal analysis. Perfect management of the internal light path, without any kind of scattering or thermal dispersion, is achieved by utilizing a special coating on the inner surface, together with the prisms' TIR (Total Internal Reflection) control and optimized Relay Optics. SIM2 customized optical components: lenses and prisms. This combination defines the amazing contrast ratio achieved by the C3X.
