In Reply to: DLP or LCOS? posted by LWR on March 16, 2004 at 19:21:13:
Both technologies require the same kind of bulb and both supposedly don't have burn-in issues. However, no one to date has really been successful at bringing out a LCOS RPTV set. The Toshiba sets had to be pulled from the market (reliability problems -- pictures developing strange anomalies, and high rejection rate at the factory for the chips). I saw, at CES, a very reasonably priced JVC rear projection set (1080 x 1920 chip) that looked good, except for black level.As for front projection, the LCOS/DILA sets that I have seen that had good pictures were very expensive and utilize expensive Xenon bulbs. The cheaper projectors have very poor black level and so they looked quite bad in dark scenes. LCOS is inferior to DLP in this respect. The LCOS technology that looked pretty good is the Sony Qualia, but at $28,000, with a $2,000 bulb with a really short life, I will have to wait for the trickle down of techonology.
