Incorporating superior technology and advanced features, Yamaha’s latest DLP projector, the DPX-1300S delivers film-like performance guaranteed to impress discerning home cinema viewers.

Worthy successor to high-performance projectors such as the DPX-1200 and DPX-1100, the DPX-1300S, equipped with the 720p DarkChip3TM DMD, uses narrow mirror gaps and an improved coating for superb contrast and colour uniformity to deliver a memorable home entertainment performance.

Designed for discerning home theatre enthusiasts, the DPX-1300S provides an incredible 5000:1 contrast ratio and brightness levels of up to 800 ANSI lumens with sharp yet natural colour reproduction. The projector uses newly-designed 10-bit video signal processing from A/D conversion through to DMD output. The digital video processing device features high performance HQVTM (Hollywood Quality Video) technology with ultra-speedy operations processing and a programmable video array processor from Silicon Optix, providing 3:2 Pull-Down detection type IP conversion that can handle 1080i HD signals.

Other noteworthy technologies include highly detailed scaling processing; jaggy reduction for HD sources by Multi-Direction Diagonal Filter (MDDF); highly advanced noise reduction, which judges the noise by pixel through Temporal Recursive Noise Reduction (TRNR); and high quality keystone correction by geometry engine (eWARP-2). In addition, Yamaha has incorporated two new technologies to further improve DVD picture quality: Mosquito Noise Reduction and a newly developed Yamaha Overshoot Suppressor.

The projector has a high-resolution lens (F = 2.7-5.0) that maintains resolution sensitivity to the edge of the lens. Four anomalous dispersion glass components have halved chromatic aberration while maintaining a short focal point and high magnification zoom.

The DPX-1300S’s colour wheel has seven segments with an ND filter-equipped green segment that provides a more true-to-life picture than ever before. Green resolution is 10-bit, which also significantly improves the representation of black tones.

Installation of the DPX-1300S is easy and versatile. A short focal length of 3m (100” 16:9) and high magnification with a zoom ratio of 1.6x facilitate installation. Motorised vertical lens shift is ±50% of projection height and iris, zoom and focus adjustments are also motorised.

The projector is user-friendly, and offers a one-line menu with a graphical menu configuration that keeps operation simple. Other features include Smart Zoom for projecting 4:3 sources onto a full 16:9 screen, Cinema Zoom for eliminating black bars on images wider than 16:9, six memories for each input, variable lamp power control, operation lock function, automatic aspect conversion, powerful trigger out (12V, 200mA) for flexible custom installation system design, and HDMI and DVI input for digital video connection.
