Lumagen Radiance Pro

[bmoney]

The best is about to get better 

“With its color-preserving nature (with some exceptions for highlight desaturation toward white), optimal transfer-function, and with the newest desaturation algorithm in this test release, the best DTM now even better.”

It would update on the fasted baud rate for me. Had to do the second fastest one. But updated without a hitch. Haven’t been able to test it out yet tho

I always use the 2nd fastest 115 setting. Updated last night - took a while. I left Dpad on 1 - Lucy looked great ( watched the entire movie - been a while ), watched parting of Alita, watched the beginning of Bladerunner 2049. All looks outstanding.

 My I ask a question out of complete ignorance?
 
Would a Lumagen Radiance Pro noticeably improve my system, my image?
 
I have a JVC 4100 projector. It is position about 14 feet from my 110 inch Stuart StudioTek130 screen.  Would there be a significant improvement adding this to the system?
 
If it is added, does every input, Cable, 4K Player, Apple TV get plug into this first and then to my processor, or can I just have it connected to the processor and the projector?

I see a big improvement both picture wise / HDR wise and with a scope screen, auto aspect ratio handling wise.  Frankly, I couldn't be without one at this point. I have my sources routed to the Lumagen, and video out of the Lumagen direct to the RS4100, audio direct to the Denon A1H I have. I love it.

I second this. It made my pj look like I bought a new one. And with auto aspect. It’s a no brainer. The lumagen will outlast any projector i have. So its price is over a very long time. And they keep improving it to boot. .

watched John Wick 4 last night w the new firmware.  woah!  its friggin impressive!

just when you thought it couldnt get better...

"Yes, the latest beta is very good...way better than the last official beta released in Sep. You will see some UI changes to the maxlight figure which makes it much easier to access - all in one place."

Lumagen - the gift that keeps on giving! I'm looking forward to yet another improvement.

Newest beta is out. Looks great. 

Does trigger it’s a virus on windoze. But easily worked around
