FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LAS VEGAS, NV (June 8, 2005) – JVC PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTS COMPANY today introduced the DLA-HRM1, its first reference monitor that utilizes its innovative 3-chip Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier (D-ILA™) technology that packs 1920x1080 pixels to deliver outstanding image quality. This 48-inch reference monitor is the most recent addition to JVC’s already impressive line of display products for HD post-production, broadcast and corporate installations.

The DLA-HRM1 features superior digital processing, with a color gamut that exceeds Rec. 709 and a remarkable contrast ratio of a 3000:1. The case’s design allows users to mount the monitor upright or inverted to achieve optimum screen height of either a standing or seated workstation.

“With our fine pitch D-ILA™ technology, the DLA-HRM1 can resolve all 1920x1080 pixels, which is not typical of the CRT products currently available and being used for HD reference monitoring,” said Gary Klasmeier, D-ILA™ product engineering manager for JVC PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTS COMPANY. “With its bright and extremely vivid display, the DLA-HRM1 brings another high quality product to JVC’s existing lineup of HD displays.”

Designed with a custom high resolution and low geometric distortion lens image clarity is maintained even at the extreme edge of the image. The DLA-HRM1 offers a high contrast, high resolution, anti-reflective non-glare screen to achieve superior imaging performance. In addition, its larger viewing area allows the operator to easily manage film grain or other fine details in the source material while enabling viewers observing around the monitor to see extremely accurate and high quality images.

Its low operating cost 2000 hour 250 W NSH lamp makes this reference monitor a cost effective and ideal solution for HD Post Production, HD surveillance operations, animation suites and high resolution computer workstations. In addition, the DLA-HRM1 is lightweight and measures 30 inches deep, making it extremely transportable. Excellent geometry and uniformity are maintained even if the monitor is moved from room to room.

The DLA-HRM1 features 170 cd/m² (50 ft.L) with an optional brightness adjust option that allows for brightness calibration. The monitor accepts a wide variety of computer signals and digital video inputs including Dual link HD-SDI (SMPTE 372), HD-SDI (SMPTE 292), SDI, DVI, and HDMI and analog inputs that include a wide selection of computer resolutions, component, S-Video, and composite.

The DLA-HRM1 will be available October 2005. Suggested list price for this product is $42,995. Further information and high-resolution photos are available on the Web at http://pro.jvc.com/newsroom.
