Hey everyone, thank you so much for watching and feel free to comment your thoughts. Please take the review with a grain of salt. These are not calibrated Projector’s, we simply did as many adjustments as we could with the factory remote controls. Both projectors will be greatly impacted by professional Calibration. This was done at an event where we were limited on time. The Jvc is on display in our Frisco show room and as soon as we get our 6000 ES, we will Calibrate each unit and do another calibrated review comparison. One of these projectors is not better than the other, they each have their pros and cons and they are both phenomenal units in this price range. You will not be unhappy with either Projector. That is guaranteed. I would highly recommend professional Calibration services for each. If you’re looking to purchase one of these units and get it professionally installed and calibrated, feel free to reach out. Divineavinc@gmail

Hey guys. Will the cheaper 5000 model have the same black level as the 6000 model? That's what I'm interested in. Improved black floor
Thx for this. Have you done this with both calibrated? Can you add link?
@@pconyc sorry for the delay on that video, we have done over 100 installations in the past three months. We plan on filming more videos ASAP.
Excellent! This is the way all projector reviews should be performed.
Thank you very much!!
Great comparison. Love the side by side half screen method! Please keep it up.
Thank you very much boss
This is by far one of the best comparison video. Since all variables are equal, it clearly shows side by side performance. Sony wins the game. Thank you for your hard work. your contents are great!
What a wonderful review of what we need to see. Thanks.
That's amazing! All of these shootouts over the past 5 months, and this is the only one that revealed some of these key details. THANK YOU! Think I'll be going for the 6000ES. My 295ES keeps shutting off, so time for an upgrade.
Thanks boss, the 6000 is a great unit. We still love the JVC though :)
We would love the chance to earn your business. Feel free to call the office or email and we will get you taken care of. We have them in stock. We also offer professional Calibration prior to delivery and or setup. Thanks 214.600.4144

Well done. You are excellent pro people. Thank you for this content. Kudos
Really well done. Please do the new Sony 6000 vs the JVC NZ8 very soon.
Great video! Both very very solid projectors!
For sure! Major benefits to both
Well done gentlemen. I now have to sell my 715 for sure.
Wow!!! Beautiful units. That JVC lens is a beast 😳
JVC wins in the physical appearance of the unit for sure
Awesome video, can you do XW5000 vs NZ7 ? I would like to see how the cheaper lenses perform compared to XW6000. Thank you so much
Thanks, I'd like to see the 5000 against the 6000, considering the 6000 is 2x the price it would nice to see if it's 2x as good in PQ.
Great idea!
@@DivineAV Seriously keen to know if the 5000 has the same great black levels as the 6&7 models with better lenses? Do you notice any difference?
@@davo01BKK The black level is not as good on the 5000. It’s still very nice but the 6000 definitely beats it out. We will be doing video comparisons when they come out. Stay tuned
@@DivineAV Hi, is it still planned to compares the Sony's ?
Because of your in depth comparisons I choose the Sony VPL-XW5000ES!
There are not many or any that do comparisons quite like you guys do!
Matter of fact that ya'll are the only ones doing a 1 on 1 comparison without pushing the JVC too much!
Too many times I see others over adjust the JVC to try and make it look better than the Sony vs doing like ya'll are doing Apples to apples.
Please keep it up on these comparison videos 🙏
Thanks for your support! We love what we do!
I own a non- laser JVC,but man that Sony really kicks ass. And doing so with a comparable price point to the JVC too.
Nice compare, many thanks
Thx for the great comparison! What type /model AT screen did you use?
Thanks for the review appreciate it! In my opinion both are great but I think the Sony wins by a tiny margin based on what I saw in the review. Of course both are amazing!
Ready for your next home theater install video
We got 3 or 4 in the making. One 9 channel with all Bowers and Wilkins and another with RF-7s my friend. Stay tuned and we'll have those videos out shortly.
Thanx guys wow wow I want the Sony now
email us wher you are ready. We are here for you. divineavinc@gmail.
You guys did a superb job of pointing out the differences between the two projectors in this comparison and review. However, currently own the Sony VPL-VW915ES and I was really interested in knowing whether to exchange it for the VPL-XW7000ES or just keep it. Also you've mentioned that you had a Sony VPL-XW7000ES in the studio, but that was for a presentation for another day. OK fair enough, when is that other day coming though? I'm really wondering how well the VPL-XW7000ES does against the JVC DLA-NZ9R?
Excellent! And FINALLY someone does a meaningful comparison of fan noise.
What was each projector's output level set to for the noise comparison?
Thanks boss. Both units in the highest brightness mode. JVC does quiet down in the lower cinema modes. Sony is always pretty quiet
This my dear is not a meaningful comparison
Thanks for the comp! Would love to see a 6000 v NZ8 comp! The JVC colors looked really pushed on greens -- especially in the forest. But there was an overall green tint even in the rocks and other sections. Is that something you saw in person or just in the way the video captured? Also, edge focus and overall sharpness and detail seemed to heavily favor the Sony. Did you just change my mind on my next PJ?!? :-)
Fantastic observation. We did see that in person but I can tell you that after spyder X Calibration on our last NZ7 installation, we found out to be corrected. I think that out of the box the Sony is a little bit more dialed in but the Jvc can definitely step up a couple of notches with professional calibration. We have an installation with the JVC coming out soon on our channel.
Not sure if we will do the NZ eight comparison anytime soon but it’s possible.
Feel free to reach out when you’re ready to make your purchase, I’d be glad to go into the specifics on these units. We’d love to earn your business. Take care Boss

So yes it does look more detailed but the thing i worry is I like a cinematic film look to my movies it’s cool having a super clean image but I don’t want my PJ setup to look like a flat panel TV just something to think about cheers
@@hddanman7263 Then why bother with 4k? Wasted resolution if you want cinematic. Watching in 24p should give you all the cinematic you want. Or just stick to a very good 1080p.
You can watch Fomo’s video on a full on comparison… Sony 6000 is not there yet, especially shadow details and HDR.
@@hddanman7263 it's not resolution that gives it a "cinematic" feel or not, but rather the motion. If the motion is an janky and soap opera-ish then yeah it won't look cinematic.
But the sharpness doesn't affect that.
Take for example the Christie Eclipse, currently best projector money can buy. It's sharpness, colors and contrast will make an OLED look bad, even on a 300" screen. And it looks very cinematic
Great comparison guys. It was very helpful as I was tossing between NZ8 and the Sony 6000. I believe the NZ8 has a better lens than the the NZ7 which you have used in the video. I believe the image will be very close if the comparison was between NZ8 and the XW6000. It will awesome if you can do the comparison between those 2 projectors.
Yeah I think you’re right, that’s probably the real comparison. We will see what we can do to get our hands on an NZ8 sometime soon. If there’s anyway we can earn your business when you’re ready, feel free to shoot us an email or give us a call. We’d love to build a package for you and assist in anyway that we can with system design.

Divineavinc@gmail
@@DivineAV the NZ8 is $4k more than the Sony 6000 if I am correct so the comparison would be is it $4k better than the sony 6000?
I’m also torn between the nz8 and Sony 6000 but for 5k diffence this may push me to the Sony
Sony engineers are definitely doing something special with the image processing. The only thing that bothered me-in terms of color accuracy-was the pink tint on the Sony is very noticeable, especially on skin tones and the rose-color pearls. Is that something that can be corrected, or was it a result of the camera exposure? What did you guys see? Anyway, I really enjoyed the side to side comparison.
That was a little bit of camera exposure but we definitely did see a bit of a pink hue on the Sony and a bit of a green hue on the Jvc. They will both definitely benefit from actual color calibration using something like a spider X elite. All we did was gamma, brightness, contrast, reality creation, E shift and a few other minor things. These are not calibrated projectors. We just made a few hand adjustments. From our experience with the 715 ES and previous generation JVC models, with proper Calibration, we don’t see any of those issues
Great video, very interesting for sure. On the JVC did you have the 8k shift on? On the Sony did you have RC on? What lamp modes did you run each at? And finally, why did the JVC look a touch warmer in color tones vs the Sony if both images were calibrated? What sort of gear did you use to calibrate the images?
Thank you so much for watching, yes we had the 8k Eshift on. As for the Sony we did have reality creation on at about 40%.
All hand calibration with a few verifications with an x-rite pro. These are all basic settings and no color calibration was done to the units. Both of them could benefit from some thing like a Spyder X elite. These images are what you should expect on a 1.1 gain acoustically transparent screen and minor adjustments by hand.
@@DivineAV Have you turned the shift off? The 8k shift causes a slight softness or almost blur to the image with upscaled content. I have seen it in person myself and it nearly put me off purchasing the JVC. I asked them how they had it setup and they said it had 8k shift on and when it was turned off the difference in sharpness was noticeable. A few other reviews had mentioned it which was why I asked. Try turning it off and see if you also notice the difference? I am curious.
Amazing video! Can you compte the W5000 with the Np5?
We will try to get them together for demo
Can you tell us how the 5000 compares to each of the projectors in the video. I love the shelf you are using in the video. Did you custom build that or is that available to purchase?
The 5000 es is a great unit but not in the same league as these units. The contrast is much lower and the features are not as rich. Video to come.
Great comparison! Are you using 8k e shift in this video on the JVC?
Yes my friend it was turned on and cranked all the way up. It definitely does better with a Blu-ray disk though. If you’re interested in buying one of these things, feel free to give us a call and we’re happy to set up a consultation. We have a lot of experience with both brands

The best projector comparison video I have seen. Thanks for uploading and please keep posting such videos. Please compare between xw5000es and xw6000es. I will get one of these projector. I am located in India.
Thanks so much for your comments my brother. We actually have many Indian clients here in Frisco TX. Tons of Telugu and Tamil guys. Absolutely amazing community out here. We will try to have more videos out soon.
In india where to get sony projector , do you know any authorised dealer with latest models , kindly help i am from tamilnadu
@@venkatesanjb284 I’ll ask my Sony representative. Otherwise you may be able to get a service that can work with a dealer in the states. Try googling authorized Sony dealer India. The pricing is probably higher out there though
@@DivineAV Thanks a lot.. B4 6000sony i was almost fixed to nz7/nz8 now sony 6000 is best bang for buck ..
I have a JVC NZ7. Three tips. 1. Turn the laser diode power down to Medium and the fan noise will get quieter. 2. Turn off the 8K e-shift (which is really not needed) and it will get quieter still. 3. Get Spears and Munsil UHD HDR Benchmark or some equivalent calibration material and use it to tune the projector for your theater’s environment. I made noticeable improvements in black levels and color accuracy by spending some time tweaking some of the JVC’s settings. I’m sure these new Sony’s are great, but I don’t have any regrets with the JVC.
It’s a phenomenal Projector, congratulations and thanks for the tips. People appreciate those
Hey Guys I saw in the comments you were going to do a follow up comparison with both units calibrated. did that happen ? were the results the same?
Glad to see your in the DFW area. Currently have the Sony 915ES. Wonder how the 6000 would look like compared to the 915ES. Might have to stop by.
We actually just sold the 915 but I’ll see if I can get a hold of another one. Honestly, I think the 6000 has it beat. We’d love to have you come by and get a demonstration. You have to see MadVR on a 6000es with kaleidescape. It’s ridiculously good. Feel free to reach out and we can set up an appointment. Thanks! Divineavinc@gmail
@@DivineAV thanks. About to send you an email. Keep up the great content.
Thnx
Great job guys! Exactly the two projectors I was deciding between. Is there any benefit to the JVC having the hdmi 2.1 other than gaming? In your opinion, is the lack of dynamic tone mapping on the Sony a deal breaker? Ty all so much. Which of the two should I pick everyone??
They are both awesome projectors and from my experience, the 4K 120 is pretty cool on PS five. You’ll see a video coming out soon on our channel about that system we installed. I don’t think that’s a dealbreaker because the 1080 P 120 input lag on the Sony is faster. From our experience, the dynamic tone mapping is cool but with the new XR processor in the Sony, I definitely don’t think it’s a dealbreaker. We’d love to earn your business, feel free to give us a call or shoot us an email.

@@DivineAV The XR is in the new Bravia TVs, projectors are using their older X1 Ultimate.
@@John-qq3uq Yeah, we didn’t have a production model during this filming. This was awhile back. We had the video done way before the press release date. We should have a production unit soon so we can do more testing and calibrated comparisons.
@@DivineAV Thank you looking forward to it as I am upgrading from my 5040. Stuck between LS12000, NP5 and XW5000, so far even for preproduction the Sony looks awesome, however I am really skeptical about the whole SXRD panel degradation thing, Sony claimed that they've fixed it yet, calibrators are still reporting massive drops in contrast after just few hundreds of hours. Sony is silent, not really a good way to do marketing as this holds me from buying one. 6k is a lot of money for me to spend on possibly flawed technology.
Looks like the Sony beats the JVC in almost each comparison... great video and one I was hoping to see after the Sony announcement... others just talked specs you have shown actual screens so we can make a more learned decision... cheers!!!
Yeah, just keep in mind that this is not a calibrated comparison, you can certainly improve colors and contrast not to mention things like panel alignment with proper calibration. As soon as we get our actual Sony in our show room, we will do a calibrated comparison on both. If you’re interested in purchasing unit, feel free to reach out and we will help you out
Please do a calibrated comparison when possible.. Can you give us an idea when could be possible??
Yeah, that will be done as soon as we get our unit. Probably in May

Very interesting and good information. I see that you have a Nad M-17 v2i under the Sony VPL-7000ES AND JVC-NZ7.
Is it the home theater processor that your using in your theater show.
We are fans of NAD and Audio Control. We have those and others on display. If you need information or a consultation, we are here to help with your system.
Divineavinc@gmail
@@DivineAV hi, I have a Nad M-17 v2i, I was wondering if and Anthem avm 90 would be and upgrade sound wise, plus the 4 independent subwoofer output on Anthem processor. At the same time I'm doing some surching on laser projector. I always was a Audiophile. But I always use big screen TV with the best pictures.
Good video. Are these calibrated? Because it looks like there is a clear difference in white point on this video. The Sony projector is clearly much more intense in the high white areas.
They are not calibrated. We will be doing this video again after we get our production model. Calibrated comparison.
YES, exactly what I am after ( just subscribed ) could you tell me, how the Sony VPL-XW6000ES compares with the Sony VPL-XW5000ES ? Thank you
Hey there, yeah we will have a video coming out on the 5000 Es shortly. We didn’t compare the two but just from what I saw, the 6000 is tremendously better as far as black contrast goes. Colors were still great on the 5000, sharpness was very nice, brightness is obviously quite a bit higher on the 6000. We did lose powered lens shift on the 5000. Other than that the 5000 is a slightly upgraded 325 ES. Same physical design as the 6000es
Another reviewer who took measurements has all 3 of these new Sonys at about the same 12000:1 contrast ratio. So I don’t know how the 6000 has blacks that are “tremendously better” than the 5000 since they both measure the same.
Love your vids guys. REALLY stupid question from a TV person moving to Projector.. I know what eShift is but what is reality creation from Sony? I'm looking at the NZ7 since it can scale up to 8k using E-Shift but is Sony the same thing (upscaling)? On your demo the Sony definitely looks better but I'd like a bit of future proofing and the HDMI 2.1 port is pushing me towards the NZ7. Thanks!
It’s not the same thing, but they both affect the image dramatically. Each shift is actual shifting to emulate 8K resolution and reality creation sharpens the image in certain areas using artificial intelligence. Reality creation tends to help more when watching content like Netflix or UA-cam etc. That’s why sometimes it appears that the Sony is sharper but when you’re watching proper content, the JVC will match or surpass in clarity. If you’re not too far away, feel free to send us an email and we can schedule a phone call to discuss the two units with one of our consultation experts. We can get you either one. The Sony is a bit delayed. We have the JVC in Stock. Thanks buddy. Divineavinc@gmail

@@tatejr21 The decision is probably between the new Sony 5000 ES and Epson LS12000. I would use a screen innovation black diamond screen. We will be doing a review on those two projectors. Perhaps just hold off for a little bit, feel free to reach out when you’re ready. Divineavinc@gmail
Hard to judge the images while we don’t know the tone of the videos played (especially with the wedding with a big blue/magenta difference and looking way more accurate in skintone on the JVC). For reliability, staying on JVC :) The difference between SDR/HDR on JVC is impressive.
Jvc is doing a phenomenal job right now. Sony has some really big positive attributes as well. It’s really good to see both brands finally competing on the same level.
It would be interesting to see a side by side comparison of the Epson Pro - Cinema LS12000 vs the SONY VPL-XW5000ES. there's only a $1,000 difference between the 2 units, I think it would be epic.
The Sony would blow the pixel shiffter of Epson away...Native new 4k chips too..X1 processor for projectors..I have (2) projectors the Panasonic ae 8000, 1080p with 3d great picture and a optoma uhd 65 4k pixel shiffter that is great with a dalite 150" matte white screen ..I am very happy with my setups..If I came into some big money, I would get the spny 6000..Thanks..
@@billhennigan3773 So I'll say it again, I would love to see the Epson vs the Sony.
We will be doing that video. Stay tuned
Epson does not have native 4k. So that's already a loss.
@@igbolady7481 yeah but it has 4K 120 input and the Epson upscaling is very good.
Thanks for the video. Was the JVC focused correctly? The detail / clarity on the Sony seems way too much higher for this grade of device!
Yeah we worked really hard to focus both projectors. I literally checked Multiple times. The Jvc definitely looks better than the demo with a Blu-ray disc though
@@DivineAV well, then this JVC unit has either a slightly inferior lens or not good enough pixel convergence.
Small request: Would it be possible to show how long it takes for some of these projectors to turn on from standyby/off and then also how long the sync takes between source input changes? Almost no reviewers seem to show this and I'd love to see the comparisons.
Hey there, we actually filmed that as well but the footage was corrupt. It was only about 45 seconds start time on both projectors. Switching inputs is relatively fast but that’s also going to depend on the type of source and AVR that you’re using. We would definitely recommend fiberoptic HDMI cables for faster handshaking. Feel free to shoot us an email if you’re looking for Products and we will help you out. Thank you very much
Divineavinc@gmail
The Sony is so, so much better (much more difference than 10-15% as stated), so much sharper in the details - and not any "strange" colors in the nature scenes for ex. the JVC ... no question which one I will choose - thanks for the review.
They are both very good projectors. We have since calibrated our JVC and the panel alignment made a big difference in the color accuracy. Thank you so much for watching and for your support. Let us know if we can help you out with the purchase of any products.
Divineavinc@gmail
Just the comparison I was looking for - thank you. The JVC seems to show green fringing - did you notice that as well? Is that a misaligned lens issue (just the one unit you got)?
Yeah we noticed that, I think it’s panel alignment. I wouldn’t expect to see that on any other units. Thanks my friend
Let us know if we can help you with any products
I really need a TV mounted. Do y’all do that sort of thing? 😂
Haha!!!
Yeah perhaps we can fly a technician out there :)!!
Thank you for the NZ7 vs xw6000es comparison. I have follow up regarding light dimming on both projectors. It has been said laser dimming on the xw6000es is not yet enabled on the pre-production samples. Was dimming enabled on your review xw6000es? Was laser dimming on the NZ7 enabled? Also, when it comes to test content, were you able to evaluate these projectors with any other content you could not publish? If yes, any observations would be welcome. Thanks
Hey my brother, yeah the laser dimming was turned off on the Sony and I tried it both ways on the Jvc. In the video it’s off. Yes, we watched some Blu-ray content and the JVC is definitely improved when it has proper meta-data. Slight improvement on the Sony as well. When we get our actual production Sony, we plan on doing a full calibration on both units and a follow up video.
@@DivineAV You turned the laser dimming off for the JVC in this video?
@@TJ-po9ol We tried it both ways but it was on in the video
I would like to hear about the 3d performance on both of these.
I was considering the JVC but now I'm torn the Sony has definitely the edge on details which I love

Awsome can't wait!
I enjoyed the comparison, keep up the good work.

Will this amazing sony projector be good for a 170" wide screen??
It will work well in SDR and decent in HDR. Feel free to email with any questions or for help with system design. We can get you what you need. Thanks buddy
Divineavinc@gmail
The image on the Sony looks better overall.
Is the HDR comparison using the JVC wide color gamut filter? Is it true that Sony doesn't need a filter for wide gamut? Hence not lowering light output
Yes on the JVC. I think only the really high end units from sony dont need it. Pretty sure the 6000es does. Ill check on that.
@@DivineAV My bad on the JVC, it looks like only NZ8 and NZ9 actually have the filter to reach full DCI-P3
How big of a 2.35:1 screen can I get with the new Sony before I start losing brightness?
You lose brightness with every inch that the screen increases, I would recommend keeping it under about 150-160"
Feel free to reach out if you need products. Thanks. divineavinc@gmail.com
Both brilliant prokectors, but I suspect the Sony has the edge because of it's lenses and it's video processing is second to none.

This is a great comparison and the sony is incredible but both are a little bit out my price range how about doing this with the epson ls12000 and the Sony xw5000es for us guys with a smaller budget
Subscribe. We will be shooting that video soon
@@DivineAV can't wait to see it
Firstly, thank you for the review - I am in RI, and without traveling 4+ hours to New York or similar, there isn't a showroom around that I could see either of these projectors in person...
That said, I am very interested in your perception of the black levels - other shootouts have praised JVC's black levels being far superior to that of the Sony, but you see the opposite. In general, those reviews have made me worried the Sony would fail to impress... I am coming from a non-SXRD or D-ILA (coming from Optoma projectors) so my initial thought was, "it will all be way better" but then I got worried the Sony would still leave me wanting.
Other shootouts have given the nod to JVC based on their impressive built in tone mapping, where apparently the Sony lags behind... however, I am building a Capture PC that will run MadVR (i.e. similar to the MadVR Envy... just homemade) so tone mapping isn't a deal breaker for me. The greatly improved sharpness of that lens on the Sony though...
In the end, what matters most is going to be the Sharpness, the contrast, the brightness, and the color reproduction. So in your opinion, taking the tone mapping out of it, you are thinking Sony over the JVC it would seem. (for all those that said NX8 would be a tighter comparison, it just so happens that there seems to be a subconscious line that is drawn for me somewhere between the $11,500 price of the Sony 6000, and the nearly $17,000 price of JVC NX8... I just can't do it... so the NX7 to XW-6000 to me is the proper comparative, both within the same price range, and one that both my subconscious and conscious mind will actually let me proceed with.)
I also appreciate you running this on an acoustically transparent screen, as I am in the same boat and worried they would not be bright enough for this application. I will be on a 150" fabric XYScreen SoundMax 4k - very similar to Elite AcousticPro UHD, so figure about 80% brightness. Were you on a Microperf or a fabric screen?
Thanks Again for the review!
Hey boss, I think we should schedule a call with one of our sales experts. He will answer all of your questions and see if we can assist in getting you the products you need. If that sounds good, please email us at divineavinc@gmail.com and our office staff will book a call or Zoom meeting. Thanks buddy.
Holy Moly! I was about to buy the JVC NZ7 but now I shall wait for the Sony XW 6000. I don't know if it was just the calibration or something but everything seemed better on the Sony: Colors, dark/black levels, image sharpness and details, and even the fan noise 😅. Well thanks a lot for the video
This is not a proper comparison
Absolutly Fake
I was about to order the NZ7 but after this wow it has to be Sony
What is the gain of the screen used for this demo ?
1.1
is the camera having a hard time focusing both images? i say this because the JVC side looks oddly unfocused. I find it hard to believe, as someone who has seen this projector before that it is really that blurry.
Perhaps, It really didn't look out of focus in person. I know that JVC unit itself was in focus. I spent 30 mins tweaking it. Calibrated comparison video to come.
The jvc looks totally blurry next to the Sony. There must be a problem…
@@cedricpelzman9551 There’s no problem, it’s just the edge of the image. The projectors have been lens shifted over. Sony is using 40% reality creation which sharpens that stuff up. Also the projectors are not calibrated, Sony does a little bit better out-of-the-box and Jvc needs Calibration to shine. We are going to do a calibrated review when we actually get our production model of the Sony. We own the Jvc but the Sony was not ours
I agree with Kay Cee. The JVC side was CONSPICUOUSLY softer in focus throughout the comparison, when viewed on UA-cam. So much softer that I put my order for an NZ8 on hold (it's replacing the venerable Sony VPL-VW1000ES). If you spent 30 minutes tweaking the JVC, that speaks volumes: what we are therefore seeing in your comparison is JVC at it best (focus-wise), and the Sony, frankly, is far better. IMHO.
@@stevejohnson3724 The NZ8 is a whole different ball game. That thing is an animal. Focus is definitely sharper on the NZ8.
I had a zoom call yesterday with Chris from JVC. We discussed that we think the panels are a bit out of alignment on my unit. We are going to be comparing it to the 6000 ES again during our calibrated comparison once we receive the Sony. Thanks so much for watching!
What atr your thoughts on the jvc np5 vs the Sony 5000es?
The sony is $1000 cheaper, but ive heard rhe jvc black levels blow the sony out of the water, ive also heard its not good enough to warrant the extra money?
Hey buddy, they’re both very good projectors, I would say the NP5 has a slight edge on dark tones, but it is definitely not a massive difference. The Sony it’s probably 10 or 15% sharper. There’s pros and cons to both and it kind of depends on your individual environment. We sell both units if you’d like to speak to one of our professionals, feel free to reach out and we would be happy to help.

Watching this comparison on my iPhone the Sony has a significant better overall picture. It appears the colors, blacks, details, and whites pop more and true to the image shown.
In the wedding scene I saw more skin tone on her arm and better clarity of the lace on the Sony better contrast?
Yeah in that particular clip the Sony was definitely better. We did find that the Jvc frame adapt HDR tends to work better with Blu-ray Disc
@@DivineAV What about with Kaleidescape and streaming sources (Netflix, HBOMax, Disney+ etc.)?
Well, if I can give advice .... the projectors should be calibrated first .... then the comparison can begin ...
An interesting comparison would be from jvc nz9 and sony xw7000 since, in America, they have a similar price…
Which projector would be better at 150 inch image?
6000es will do well. Feel free to give us a call or send an email.
Divineavinc@gmail
I’m not sure you got the prices correct on these units and that would be the only way you could compare these two considering one is the midline and one is the entry level thanks for the content
10999 JVC and 11999 for Sony. Pretty close
So 1199 for the sony mid line ok that’s awesome i herd it was around 18000 msrp thanks that makes this comparison video legit
is the XW6000 the XW5000? In Germany we only speak about 5000(manual lens shift and objective Focus)and 7000..
No, it’s a model in between. Perhaps they don’t have that one there
@@DivineAV this is the model people want here;) so stupid ,a 5000€ and 15.000€ ,the 5000 Manual optic..no comment :))
@@DivineAV From what I've seen about the Europe versions of the Sony, they sell the xw5000 and the xw7000 models. That being said, they sell the xw7000 for the same price as what the xw6000 sells here in the USA.. Looks like the American consumer is getting ripped off.
You mentioned the Sony was utilizing the laser dimming feature to get better blacks. Was this not being used on the JVC? I think the NZ7 had that feature.
Yeah, it’s been a while but I think we have them both set at 80%
The JVC looks a lot better in our store, using a 0.8 gain Acoustically transparent material.
Thanks for the comparison. Just want to point out that this comparison is the jvc bottom line laser projector vs the sony middle line laser projectors. To even the playing field this sony should be compared to the nz8 not the nz7 or the es5000 vs the nz7. On top of that if these projectors were calibrated correctly the color would not be that different. You mentioned in your comments below that the color was not calibrated on either projector. If not why try to talk about colors that are crushed. This video just seemed very heavily weighted towards the Sony. Is the true motivation because the jvcs are hard to come across and you can't sell them or is the sony actually better.. I usually enjoy your content but this one was a little off to me.
Hey boss, I see your point but we compared these two units because the price point is almost the same. People don’t care which model in the line up, they care about what they get for the money. We have a lot of experience in the industry. Over 4000 clients in dfw. We did not calibrate the colors because we wanted to show what they are capable of out of the box. Also, colors and contrast may be improved with calibration but certainly not resolution.
Your theory on inventory is a bit off. The Sony units are not even released yet… we can’t get them until May or June. We have the JVCs now and installed one yesterday. With calibration it looked great at the clients home but there is no hiding that the Sony has better overall clarity. We don’t push any particular brand and we are no BS which is why we just gave it to you how we saw it. Thanks for the comment brother.
I am of the same opinion. You can't compare colors if they don't have the same calibration. Moreover, the calibration won't change the sharpness but the parameters linked to the processor will. It is enough that an option like the clarity motion is engaged on the sony and not the equivalent on the JVC. In short, a comparison is not made out of the box, but by going through a calibration and settings for the 2 projectors.
@@Wallaswilliam without a doubt, everyone needs to take this comparison with a grain of salt. This was done at an event and we did our best to quickly adjust the projectors with the provided remote controls. Sony is trying to cater a bit towards an out-of-the-box solution like a TV. The JVC certainly benefits more from Calibration. We will do a calibrated review of both units together once we get our physical Sony in the showroom. We do own the JVC unit and it is currently on display in a Frisco Showroom. It’s one of our favorite projectors and is truly a quality piece of equipment in this price range. Excited to see these two big companies duke this out over the years
What camera did you use to film this?
Sony A6500 with a Sigma 16mm Prime
Interesting but without knowing how the calibration was done, I'm skeptical. The color differences were too large for a properly calibrated projector - something is amiss. That said, the detail of the Sony was off the chart better than the JVC.
Both projectors have basic hand adjustments using the factory remote controls, no color calibration was done to either unit. The Jvc would definitely benefit a lot from a spyder elite calibration using auto cal. The Sony would also benefit from similar Calibration. Reality creation was set to 40% on the Sony and 8KE shift was on for the JVC and turned to the maximum setting. We had the gamma set to Cinema 2 on the Jvc and made it look as good as we could. The Jvc is on display in our show room and the settings have not been changed since the video. Anyone is welcome to come and check it out in person. It is certainly better in person. We literally just sold one and the client is very happy. There’s definitely benefits to both projectors. You will see a video coming out on our channel with the NZ7 installation. Sony is doing a phenomenal job and out of the box their unit looks fantastic. Very minor adjustments made to it
@@DivineAV sorry, but talking about or comparing color accuracy on an uncalibrated projector is a little like talking about the performance of a race car without tuning up the engine. Color differences were vast, and your video made the JVC's colors look horribly inaccurate.
@@patrickmartin4482 i’m not sure what your motive is but there’s no need for you to make such a silly claim. We sell Jvc‘s all the time. This is just a UA-cam comparison. Neither one of the projectors are calibrated with any equipment. They were just adjusted by hand. The Jvc was certainly in focus. Keep in mind that it’s a split screen and we are showing the edge of the image. cameras tend to focus in the middle so this is partially the fault of the content itself. As many people have stated, Jvc’s need pretty extensive Calibration to shine. The NZ7 is an absolutely fantastic product. The Sony does a very good job out of the box. Anyway, we plan on doing a calibrated version of this review once we have both units in hand. We never said the Sony was better in this video. Both companies are making very good products
Nice comparison but I don't really see the point in comparing them out of the box. Anyone who is spending this much on a projector will get it calibrated. After both are calibrated that would be an interesting comparison and likely much harder to tell difference between the two.
This comparison is very interesting, because the outcome was much different at the mwave (Midwest Av experience) event. The jvc did much better then the Sony in the side by side, especially regarding black levels.
But then again although those are both the mid tier projectors from both companies in that lineup, the jvc is $4000 more then the Sony, so Sony has clear advantage there.
Yeah, I did notice that they had some different results. Keep in mind that environments were totally different, the screen sizes, the Screen Material type, calibration settings etc. We will do more testing and more videos on these units. We also have other comparisons planned. Thank you very much for watching and for your feedback
I’d take this video with decent grain of salt. Review after review after review that sets up the projectors and measures them shows the JVC stomps the Sony in native contrast in scenes with ADL brightness from 0-3%. Doesn’t sound like a big deal on paper, but if you love Sci Fi flicks you’d have to be blind not to see the difference between the Sonys and JVCs. Now if Sony had the more sane pricing of their European models, you can start justifying some things, but you’d have to be crazy to buy a Sony 7000 over the JVC NZ9 in the US.
@@ryankramer yep, you can’t really select a projector off of a UA-cam video. Anyone in DFW that wants to check out any of these units. Schedule a demo at our showroom. We will never pressure you to select a certain brand
@@DivineAV And that's good to hear. :-)
I recently sold my JVC X790R with the intentions of upgrading very soon. At first I thought about purchasing the JVC RS3100 but the new Sony VPL-XW6000ES is pretty impressive at its price point. I’d love to know how the 6000 stacks up against the RS3100. Something tells me the subtle differences wouldn’t justify spending the extra money on the JVC. Would you guys mind comparing the two for me, or providing me with your thoughts? My screen is a 120” Black Diamond 1.4 gain zero edge. Thank you.

@judd nguyen, JVC frame adapt HDR is something really inportant that Sony doesn’t have. Sony can’t do 4K/120 either.
Tough choice. The processor on the Sony is far superior. The clarity and detail on the Sony is far superior. The Sony can now match the JVC brightness and based off of this showdown, the Sony is the clear winner. Can't wait for more head to head between the two. Competition between companies only benefits us customers.
@@ha1l2th3king6 without a doubt, it’s very clear to me that Sony has worked extremely hard to get this unit out quickly. The 715 ES is only about a year old and here we are with a new unit. I can’t help but to think that Jvc pushing the envelope with their new laser projectors has pushed Sony even harder. These guys will continue to duke it out and the customers will reap the benefits.

Looking forward to seeing the version of this video, with two properly calibrated units. This video is interesting, but isn't overly useful if the units weren't calibrated. Was the JVC unit just not focused correctly? I mean the details were just so much worse than the Sony one, that it almost seemed like something was off on the JVC one.
Both manufactures state that the projectors do not need to be calibrated. We made all adjustments by hand, such as brightness, contrast, color, tent, image, enhancement settings etc. The Jvc did not love that particular, Screen Material. It was a Stewart screen. It looks better in our show room. We will be doing another video though. Jvc was in focus.
@@DivineAV thanks for the reply. Looking forward to seeing that video.
I have to admit, I've seen other videos on them; one of which showed some dark scenes of the 1917 movie. Sony was horrendous... which makes me think I should wait for a firmware fix, or the next revision.
Would be nice to include such scenes in your follow up video.
@@enriquebenedicto9429 the problem is, a lot of the other UA-camrs don’t even sell these products and the ones that do only sell JVC so they try to come up with any reason they can to squash Sony. Sony, Epson and Jvc are making very good products, and they each have their benefits and drawbacks. We will try to showcase more of these in future videos.
Sorry Noob question but if the JVC is 8K pixel shifting surely the image should be better than the Sony thats showing native 4k? what am I missing because the Sony looks incredible the details and colours are amazing
And I was set on getting the N7 now not so sure!
The Sony has reality creation, which essentially can sharpen any content. E shifting upscales and it definitely does a good job but I don’t think the sharpness is the top selling point on the Jvc. It has very good colors, contrast and frame adapt HDR. If you’re looking for pure sharpness, probably the Sony. If you’re in the market, feel free to reach out and one of the gentleman from the video can advise and get you pricing. Thanks
Divineavinc@gmail
@@DivineAV Thanks for the clarification! I was set on the N7 but after seeing this I am favoring the Sony, its such a tough choice now though, I need the 3d support, want low latency and with 8 support the JVC would seemingly future proof me but that Sony image was crazy great! oh well western problems right - which expensive movie projector do I want to spend 15k on :)

Sony wins. Even on my Mac laptop, the image details the Sony brings out are very noticeable.
looks 4K while the JVC looks 1080p or something. shame cause JVC the one for gaming with 120hz "4k"
The Sony looks better IMO just more true colors. JVC looks a little too dark IMO. How about the fan noise com for each ?
The JVC panel alignments seem to be out... Can see obvious green pixels edge on the right of any white colours. Obvious on the closeup on the diamonds..
Yeah, take the comparison with a grain of salt. The projectors are not calibrated. All of that kind of stuff can easily be corrected with proper calibration. We will do a proper calibrated review when we get a Sony unit in our show room. That was done on limited time at an event
Nice review, however the comparison is a bit quick in my opinion and does not take into account certain technical aspects:
Sony was parameterize with RC at 40% (strong sharp).
RC is a software sharp, not natural sharp (optical). You like or not, personally I don't. I think RC is to strong and give an overly numerical image with noise and artefacts, a harsh picture, sometimes artificial if it is set to high. Sony owners spend their time fiddling with sliders following the movie. I prefer something natural and very precise.
Without RC, I think JVC is in front in term of natural sharpness. Textures are finer and the image is homogeneous over the entire surface. It's very easy to realize it on a windows desktop for example. It's clear everywhere.
It is certain that JVC's internal image processing (sharp) should be improved but with a good scaler like madvr it is clearly better than Sony from my point of view and once the right sharp values have been found, it works on all films.
You also activated Eshift on the JVC but you should not on the Nz7 because it is blurring the picture (On Nz8 and Nz9 it is different because it use eshiftX).
No 120hz, smaller matrix than previous models (0.61") and 54mm lens on Sony // 120hz, 0.69" and 65mm (full glass) + 8K inputs for JVC.
No 100% DCI capable for Sony (95% for XW7000) // 100% DCI capable for JVC
Still no DTM for HDR on Sony! // Perfect DTM for JVC (JVC frame adapt HDR - one of the best for projectors)
No autocal software on Sony // JVC autocal software for SDR AND HDR on JVC (On AVS there also exist a tweak to use the i1d3 instead of the datacolor SpyderX which give you far better results, near perfect!)
Manual lens focus and shifting on Sony for XW5000 but motorized for X6000 and above // Fully motorized lens on JVC
Only the price of the Sony is very interesting but my global opinion is that previous generations have better specs. There is clearly nothing new. From my POV it's a downgrade to sell a projector at a correct price due to the current context.
If I have the money, I go for JVC. it's a more durable purchase
Just a small suggestion for next comparaison, could you please calibrate both projectors? It is impossible to correctly compare without a correct calibration.
Also the image of the JVC looks really blurry, that's clearly not what I saw. Are you sure everything was correctly setup?
I also see that you didn't do the convergence setting on the JVC. It is very noticeable on the "4K HDR" logo in the part with the bride. Bad focus + bad convergence = bad sharpness
Also keep in mind that you are comparing a stock JVC with a pre-demonstration model sorted from Sony which therefore offers the best of what you can hope for in reality ;)
Anyway I liked your review, especially the dual screen setup! Keep going ;)
Fantastic comment! We appreciate the time you put into this one. Very accurate information. Yes, are planning to calibrate the units and do another video as soon as we get our production model Sony.
@@DivineAV if you need help for the calibration of the JVC (with i1d3) and also if you want to give a try to madvr (free version on PC), feel free to contact me.
JVC have produced a new firmware recently and the autocal process is now automatically calibrating the three laser power mode. It is also measuring WRGB now 👍 W for white (peak nits) which is very important for the Dynamic Tone Mapping of the HDR. By this process everything is very accurate
@@Francoisl76 Thanks for the offer my brother. Don’t worry though I own the same calibration equipment. We’ve been doing this for 13 years and have thousands of customers.
@@Francoisl76 I’d love to chat at some point. Always enjoy a good conversation with a fellow enthusiast!
@@DivineAV With pleasure!
Thats interesting I've seen several demo reviews and JVC in therms of black level was beating Sony...
Yeah it’s definitely going to depend on the screen, The content, the meta-data in the content, and of course the environment itself. Both projectors are very good and definitely comparable when calibrated. Keep in mind that this was not a calibrated review. They were just adjusted using the factory remotes. We will do a calibrated review when we receive our production Sony unit
@@DivineAV Also, this (black levels) only really matters if you have complete light control. Better blacks just don't translate in a room with white reflective ceilings and or walls, or ANY ambient light in the room. It's funny how people get all excited over seeing what amounts to a whole lot of nothing and they are not set up for it.
@@nebtheweb8885 The room actually plays a bigger role in the audio visual system than the equipment does. A properly designed room can make a mid range system seem absolutely amazing. Great comment. Thanks for engaging.
Your comparing the entry level jvc $8k vs the mid tier Sony $12k. Could you do another video using the nz8 ? The Sony is a clear winner in this shootout. But would be great to see side by side with the nz8 which is same price. Btw great video but too exp for me 🤣
The NZ7 is not their entry level projector..
Also its at a 11k price point, these two projectors are of the same class..
Entry level would be their DLA-NP5 coming in a 7k. That would compare to the VPL 5000es which is at a close price point and the entry level from Sony.
Lastly the NZ8 would be compared to Sonys top model which is the VPL 7000es. If we get the opportunity we'll compare the two top tier models.
@@DivineAV my apologies , im obviously too confused with all the models ,numbers and prices of everything 🤣.
@@festgnob it’s all good, it’s really hard to keep track of all of them. Especially when they’re changing them every year or two. It’s good to see that the companies are in healthy competition with each other. Jvc was quite a bit better quality and it looks like Sony is finally catching up. Both brands are doing a really good job right now
Why is there a greenish hue on the JVC?
That’s just how it was out of the box with no color adjustments. After pro calibration, should be corrected
Also keep in mind that we are filming the screen with a good 70 4K camera but it’s not a 100% accurate representation of the image quality for these projectors. We highly recommend coming down to our show room in Frisco to get a proper demonstration of both
@@DivineAV JVC looks a little blurry, almost like it's lower resolution 1080p or something
It’s better in person but when compared, the resolution did seem a bit down. We had Eshift on and all. Using $700 hdmi cables and a very high end switch
which is better if the price is not an issue. jvc dla-rs3000 or Sony VPL-XW6000ES
That would be a battle right there! Both great units. I’ll try to arrange for a video comparison. I would say that the 6000 may be slightly brighter but they are pretty equal overall. Contrast is probably very very close. Frame adapt HDR is a benefit on the RS 3000 for a bit better HDR. I would probably go with the 6000 as it’s a laser just for the maintenance aspect. Feel free to reach out if you’re interested in picking one of these up, we will take care of you
By the way, I may have a client interested in selling his RS 3000 as well. He wants a 4100. Let me know if interested.
Divineavinc@gmail
From your demo, I feel the Sony is hands down the better image. My only hesitation with the Sony is that it doesn’t not offer HDMI 2.1, and at $12,000 it seems a blunder on Sony’s part. Does the lack of HDMI 2.1 make this projector a non starter in 2022 and forward?
This is a skewed comparison deliberately showing Jvc in bad light
Honestly it does a really good job as long as you’re not a gamer. Even if you are, if you don’t mind 1080 P120, it’s got some of the fastest input lag on the market. Feel free to reach out if you’re looking to pick one up. We will help you out
JVC ❤️
The comparison should use factory default settings, not the calibration, or use best calibration setting in each one. I think the videos shows Sony better is the calibration problems, making JVC worse. JVC color is way too saturated at that particular calibration setting while Sony looks more natural in that particular setting. In the same calibration setting eg 50, Sony is much better, but if the setting all set to 80, JVC may looks far better. So, you should use different settings that gives best pictures for each projector and compare best pictures, or just use the factory default setting for comparison.
thanks for your comments, very minor adjustments were made to the projectors, but I agree, we will try and do another video with fully calibrated units. We’ve had many comments asking for the same.
Also wanted to ask, did the Sony had Reality Creation on? Maybe that's the sharpness cus JVC should have phenomenal lenses so no way it's the lenses doing it.
Yes reality creation days artificial sharpening. That is certainly playing a major part in the clarity with low quality content. BC certainly does better with something like a kaleidoscape or Blu-ray Disc. Reality creation was turned onto 40 out of 100
Also we weren’t a fan of that screen. The JVC did much better at our show room on the original comparison with the 715 ES. We will do another video on our screen when we get our 6000. The NZ7 is ours but the other one was a loaner at the Sony demo
Is the JVC calibrated? The Sony looks calibrated and the JVC of
Both projectors have been adjusted by hand. The 8KE shift is on for the Jvc and reality creation is at 40% on the Sony. We adjusted brightness, contrast and a few other minor settings. No calibration with a spyder x was done on either unit. You have a very valid observation, The Sony seems to be a bit more dialed in out of the box and Jvc definitely benefits a lot from the auto Cal Calibration. We wanted to make it very fair and we did everything we could using the factory remote controls and hand adjustments. We have more than 10 years experience with projection systems and thousands of installations completed. We did our absolute best with what we had. You can definitely expect improvement from both units with computer Calibration
@@DivineAV one has a green cast, one has a pink hue. the calibration by hand was utter crap.
@@aaronao1 Dude, we literally didn’t do any color calibration.. We’re just talking about brightness, contrast, reality creation, E shift, gamma. That’s what hand calibration is. We’re trying to show people what these things are capable of out-of-the-box. Sure you can make colors more accurate using a spyder X elite or something similar. But that wasn’t the point. So I don’t really follow what you mean by utter crap. There’s nothing that we did to cause that hue on the screen
@@DivineAV can you share a definition which is universally accepted for 'hand calibration'? Never heard this before and I've been int he AV industry for a long time. This sounds like you just took them out of the box as an average consumer and did qualtiative very subjective assessments.
what were your contrast measurements for both devices on/off without dynamic iris or dynamic dimming fully open iris?
were the projectors not even brightness matched?
for SDR what was the standard nit target? 12-16fl?
I am struggling to understand the point in evaluating very expensive projectors in such a way.
What number was the brightness and contrast set to on the JVC?
Calibrated by hand...not sure what that means. Can you elaborate? Also, the 6000ES and NZ8R are more in line competitors from a specs perspective.. I think I'd take the JVC NZ7 and save some money, plus get HMDI 2.1 future-proofing, 8k shift, and the excellent frame adapt feature. The Sony looks very nice...just curious about what tools were used for calibrating. The SDR blooming seemed off.
Hey my brother, literally just hand adjustments using the factory remotes. The Sony was a loaner unit and the JVC is owned by us. We were not going to fully calibrate someone else’s projector. We will do a calibrated review using proper display units when we receive our actual Sony unit. Both projectors will dramatically benefit from proper calibration. We compare these units because they are only $1000 apart in price range. I agree with you spec wise.
Thank you so much for watching and let us know if we can help you out with any products. Divineavinc@gmail
@@DivineAV Makes perfect sense and thanks for the clarification 👍
One thing you might consider... since you have the NZ7 in store, why noy calibrate the unit to see if you achieve overall improvements? One of the criticisms I'm hearing repeated, was the test was not fair because the NZ7 was not set up properly and required some more advanced calibration attention. Then again, maybe that particular NZ7 demonstrates some undesirable unit variance. Please consider working on that NZ7 to see if you can achieve any improvements over your previous setup. Maybe you want to wait for your official xw6000es production sample? Either way, I'm looking forward to seeing a rematch. ;)
Yeah I totally agree with you. The JVC units shine with Calibration. I do plan on doing a calibrated review on both projectors as soon as we get our 6000. One thing I’m a little irritated about is that I can’t use my i1 basic Pro 3 for the JVC. I’ll have to dig up my pro2 or Spyder.
The 4K 120p on JVC is a killer tho (for us gamers at least).
Indeed. We have sold many JVC‘s for that reason. We were testing at the other day on call of duty PS five. It was pretty sweet
@@DivineAV wait… you sold!? I cant find it anywhere on sale!!
@@shadowfallenable He means when they have them. WORLDWIDE supply chain problems have created a backlog of most any brand of anything electronic including TVs. You can find them but they usually sell out pretty quickly due to the wait lists most of these sellers have.
