Sony updating the 4k SXRD projectors
by Matt Burns on September 17, 2008

In case you are in the market for a projector that cost more than the average, oh, Porsche, Sony has two new 4K SXRD projectors. The SRX-T110 and SRX-T105 both retain the previous generation’s 4096 x 2160 native resolution, but get a bump in lumens. The big boy T110 now spouts out 11,000 Lumens, with a contrast ratio of 2,500:1, with the T105 now at 5,500 Lumens and 2,500:1 contrast ratio. These high Lumens projos generally are geared towards large, outdoor venues, or trust fund babies media rooms. Price? Oh, you don’t wanna know.

The Sony VPL-HW10 SXRD makes an IFA appearance

Rumors and leaks about Sony’s latest SXRD projector has been floating around AV forums for some time now so this unit might be old news to some. Even still, Sony brought the VPL-HW10 out at IFA for the whole world to see. For those not aware, this guy’s calling card is based around x.v.Colour performance for a low, but yet unannounced, price. Sony claims that there isn’t a screen door effect, and the Advanced Iris 2 dynamic contrast adjustment always provides the best picture. The rest of the specs round out with 1080p24 HDMI input, 22dB fan, 1.6 zoom lens, 30,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio paired with 1000 ANSI luman brightness and powered by a 200W lamp. Just like you, I would like to know how much cake this new unit cost, but for some reason, Sony hasn’t released pricing for most of their IFA releases, including this one. Sorry.
