This typically results in a shift in the colors, particularly green, which comprises For the past two years, Marantz has set the standard by which all other solid state home theater video projectors are judged. over 50% of the picture content. Marantz engineers, in a bold stroke, developed a color correction filter called First, we introduced the VP-12S1 with its 1200:1 contrast ratio, Minolta optics and Faroudja DCDi® video processing. Next ORCA (the Optical Reproduction of Color Accuracy), that filters out the excess yellow, creating a very neutral came the award winning VP-12S2, which improved the contrast ratio to 2600:1 and reproduced the kind of black levels that white light that passes through the color wheel. This results in the most accurate color palette ever achieved made even CRT lovers stand up and take notice. By adding a DVI (Digital Visual Interface) connection, the VP-12S2 was in a video projector and has been balanced to meet the HD color space (ITU-RBT709). This is an industry able to take advantage of today’s digital video sources such as DVD and HD, to their fullest capacities. But we weren’t content first and a Marantz exclusive! The light itself is generated by a new bulb that is DC powered. This 200 Watt to just sit back and enjoy the accolades. With our newest DLP Projector, we are proud to introduce the latest invocation of bulb is brighter and less prone to flicker than any other lighting technology available. Texas Instruments’ DLP® technology and Marantz innovation to bring you the VP-12S3. With even better black levels, higher contrast, and a slew of other unique technologies, the VP-12S3 might be the last video projector you will ever own. Faroudja Video Processing Today’s video sources have two different configurations: interlaced and progressive. They also have many different resolutions: from 702 x 480 pixels of interlaced video in the NTSC format all the way up to 1280 x 780 pixels progressively scanned or 1920 x 1080 pixels displayed in an interlaced fashion for HDTV. In order to fill the screen on a fixed resolution device like the VP-12S3 with it’s 1280 x 720 pixels and maintain HD picture quality, extremely high quality video processing is required. For the VP-12S3, Marantz turned to the best resource: Faroudja Laboratories, the inventor of the first high quality line doubler, the originator of inverse telecine processing (better known as 3:2 pulldown), and three time Emmy® award winner for excellence in video imagery. Suffice to say, that the VP- 12S3 has the best video processing available today in an all-in-one product. Custom Optics by Minolta All of this excellent picture circuitry won’t do any good if you can’t get the image to the screen properly. For this reason we chose custom ground optics by Minolta, long known for its incredible lenses in its professional and consumer cameras. These optics feature a sealed light path so that the normal dust and smoke that exist in a typical home environment won’t ever intrude on the image. There is even a special long throw version of the VP-12S3 which allows for “back of the room”, or even “out-of-the-room” installation options. In addition, the VP-12S3 has an iris with two settings. The F3 setting (open) allows more light to pass through the lens at the expense of the absolute black level, for situations where high brightness is desirable. The F5 setting (closed) lowers the brightness slightly, but offers the most three-dimensional, lowest black level image in the industry. Auto Calibration System One of the areas of concern to the “videophile” is making sure the color of gray is accurate. Texas Instruments HD2+ DLP® Technology Because gray is a mixture of all of the other colors, if gray is wrong, everything else will be too. The VP-12S3 is one of the first video projectors to take advantage of Texas Instruments’ newest evolution of their DMD We have had very accurate grayscale reproduction in the past, even offering fine tuning controls. These controls were best used by professional aftermarket technicians using very technology with the new HD2+ DLP® chipset. This series of technologies combines to bring the viewer unprecedented black levels, contrast ratio, and even better low level accuracy than before, making shadow details more visible and rivaling film in specialized color analyzation equipment. To simplify this procedure, Marantz has developed a its dynamic range. special auto calibration device. This is a special color analyzer that fits over the lens like a lenscap. The user will connect the cable that is attached to the analyzer to the RS232C port on the projector and the VP-12S3 will project a series of test signals that when finished will yield perfect grayscale reproduction, even as the bulb ages. This is an industry first! Smaller Pivot Post By decreasing the size of the pivot post in the middle of each of the 921,600 micromirrors, more New - Lower Noise Mode light is reflected through the optical assembly and less is scattered internally, resulting in a mind Because of our aluminum diecast chassis with ductwork specially designed to reduce noise, the boggling 3800:1 contrast ratio! VP-12S3 is already one of the quietest devices of its genre.

  • High Definition DLP Projector VP-12S2
    High Definition DLP Projector VP-12S2 Out Of This World! Marantz set the standard in Home Theater video projection with the revolutionary VP-12S1. Now, we raise the bar with the introduction of the incredible VP-12S2. While physically similar to the VP-12S1, under the skin this new projector is worlds apart from everything else. With digital input capability, full Faroudja DCDi™ video processing, custom ground Minolta optics, and an amazing 2600:1 contrast ratio, the VP-12S2 will project an image that is out of this world. www.marantz.com VP-12S2 Video Projector Marantz Raises the Bar…Again! Through improved design techniques and the introduction of the new HD2 “Mustang” chipset from Texas Instruments, we have achieved what “others” thought impossible. With a measured contrast ratio of 2600:1, Marantz has more than doubled the best contrast of any of the previous generation DLP projectors. The result? Deep rich blacks that rival even the best 3 gun CRTs. DLP™ Technology The VP-12S2 is one of the first video projectors in the world to make use of Texas Instruments’ new HD2 1280x720 DMD™ chip in DLP™ technology. This new chip has many benefits over previous attempts at using DLP in home theater. Earlier DLP™ projectors were technically 4:3 devices that were primarily designed for commercial applications. While they had many advantages over LCD, the fact is that they were still 4:3. While this aspect ratio is more than adequate for standard NTSC and PC display, it creates a whole new set of problems when attempting to display widescreen images.
