You pick up a small increase in resolution that only benifits a small minority of content and lose contrast with ALL content. The rest is just fluff. Edited November 16, 2018 by Owen

poppybob Posted November 16, 2018 Posted November 16, 2018 I’m in the same boat, couldn’t hold off any longer and pulled the pin on a 7900 as was looking at the N5 but can’t justify $9000 on it when I got the 7900 for $5150, so was a no brainer. The size of the 7900 and the lens cover were also a big factor. once I work out what screen size I can fit, I’ll be getting one of Rich’s 2:37 screens as my last 1:85 screen from him was amazing.You won’t regret that the x7900 is a fantastic machine. I just had my x9900 calibration done after 140hrs and it’s bloody magnificent. I have a mate who has the x7900 and I can’t tell the difference. Sooo happy [emoji2]. 1
Spizz Posted November 16, 2018 Posted November 16, 2018 (edited) Looks like woofer will be doing a comparison soon- Quote I will have an NX9 here in my own theatre room VERY shortly and will be comparing to my current Z1/RS4500 and X9900 and my friends Sony 760ES and X9500.. I guess than means local stock is soon here or a pre-production model that JVC Australia is lending out? Edited November 16, 2018 by Spizz 3

Davo1972 Posted November 17, 2018 Posted November 17, 2018 Although not official, I’ve been told that $11999 for the N7 is legit. Should arrive in December. Looking forward to it! I’m ready! 2 1

I’ll use it to calibrate my various desktop and laptop pc monitors in addition to the projector. The difference between the versions is the Elite has better calibration software on the PC than the Express. If I was just buying it to calibrate the projector I would have only got the Express.

Yeah makes sense. I’ll be using mine just for the projector so think I’ll save some money and get the express then 2
PerryV Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Does anyone know whether JVC are planning to continue the 7900 model until March and whether there will b pice like in the USA. Same model retails for $3999 there

Same model retails for $3999 there From what I understand they will be, but the dollar ( USD ) will make the pricing different here. NX9 in the US is $17990 but apparently $27000 in Australia so I wouldn’t think it will change terribly much to the current pricing, which is still very good value for what your getting. Still a guessing game but.

Yeah have to agree with you there. @:) al Personally, one of the new models isn't even on my radar, but watching the AVS "Anticipation"thread which is hitting close to 10000 posts is doing my head in. It's like watching a traffic accident. You know you shouldn't, but you can't look away. People with way too much time on their hands having a nervous breakdown about a delay in the release of a good damn projector range. Threats to cancel pre-orders of $US18000 models because they might not land for another 2-3 weeks. "I'll just have to buy the Sony instead because I can't wait that long." Not only must they have way too much time, but shed loads of money as well. ( Actually, that was probably confirmed when Javs briefly de-railed the thread with a photo of his Audi and all of a sudden about 3 pages were filled with photos of peoples Ferrari's and an Aston Martin. LOL) First world problems. 3
