Abstract: Sony has been making high-quality 1080p projectors for years, but the BRAVIA VPL-VW90ES is their first foray into 3D. This SXRD projector (Sony's marketing brand for their implementation of LCOS) features a bright, smooth, film-like image in 2D with co...
While I didn't have another comparably priced competitor on hand, I did have a sample of the $4,495 JVC DLA-X3 in house. This was a different sample than the one Kris Deering reviews elsewhere in this issue. I made the comparisons here in 2D. Despite the...

Fan noise is higher than on previous models; The 3D tech adds a significant price premium; Projector is on the largish side
Sony's first 3D projector is a high-end treat. The SXRD light engine is as sharp as a sushi knife, and we didn't spot any picture-spoiling 3D crosstalk effects. If you really want to watch 3D movies at home, you need to buy one of these....
