The Nuvola NP-1 player connects to the JVC 4K e-shift3 projectors via their Native 4K-enabled HDMI inputs to deliver sharp, theater-like images.
The JVC projector lineup includes the DLA-X500R, DLA-X700R and DLA-X900RKT with class-leading Native Contrast Ratios of 60,000:1, 1,200,000:1 and 150,000:1 respectively. What makes JVC projectors unique is the use of three D-ILA imaging chips (one each for red, green and blue) to ensure natural, flicker-free image reproduction with 3840x2160 resolution on-screen. The complete line of D-ILA projectors also features JVC's exclusive 4K e-shift3 technology which accepts Native 4K 60P through the 4K-enabled HDMI inputs and up-converts existing 1080P sources to 4K precision.
"One of the biggest issues facing the 4K projector market has been a lack of available content, " said Roger West, General Manager. " With NanoTech's Nuvola NP-1 and UltraFlix able to bring more than 500 hours of 4K Ultra HD content to our D-ILA Projector distributors, the availability of 4K content is no longer an issue. That creates a compelling value proposition for the JVC distributors we're targeting with this special offer as well as their dealers and their dealers' customers."
"JVC home theater projectors are among the most innovative and most highly rated," said Aaron Taylor, NanoTech's Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing. "We share their commitment to delivering ground-breaking technology with the highest quality and are delighted to bring the world's largest and most diverse library of 4K VOD content to JVC's customers."
