Reference pages 38,39, 40,41,42,44, 45, 46, 48,49, and 50 in the June 2009 Home Theater magazine.

Quote from page 39
"They all accept a 24-fps input and display it at 96 fps (a refresh rate of 96 hertz)."

The Sony VPL-VW70 SXRD Front Projector beats the JVC DLA-HD350 in overall picture quality

Last year JVC LCOS Front Projectors had a better picture quality when compared to the Sony LCOS Front Projectors. This year in the June 2009 Home Theater magazine the Sony VPL-VW70 was compared to the JVC DLA-HD350. The Sony has a better overall picture quality with deeper blacks when compared directly with the JVC. To be fair the Sony VPL-VW70 lists for $8,000 and the JVC DLA-HD350 is only $4,500. A more fair comparison would have been for Home Theater magazine to compare the JVC DLA-HD750 that lists for $7,500 to the Sony VPL-VW70 that lists for $8,000.

Quotes regarding the comparison between the Sony VPL-VW70 and JVC DLA-HD350

"None of these projectors is a single-chip DLP model, so the color separation artifacts -rainbows -that are occasionally visible with such designs are not a factor here." (quote from page 39)

"The only thing I had left to do was compare the Sony to the JVC DLA-HD350. Both projectors performed beautifully with essentially equal resolution on the smaller and larger screens. Interestingly, the Sony appeared to have more pop in bright scenes, even with the JVC's higher brightness. But when I tweaked the gamma settings on the JVC a bit, this difference changed from obvious to subtle. The JVC's blacks were a hair less deep than the Sony's, but this was hard to spot on most material and not obvious even on the most challenging sources. Both projectors had good shadow detail, but JVC had more punch in dark, low-contrast scenes. The Sony clearly had better color, but the differences in flesh-tones, in particular, were much less obvious than expected given the measurments." (quote from page 50)

"The Sony has the deepest blacks and an image that often pops and comes alive a little more than the others." (quote from page 50)
