The light output is a stunning 1500 ANSI lumens with a contrast ratio up to 12000:1, so your family and friends can experience the thrill of top quality digital theater in your home at any time!

What used to cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars, full factory calibration is included in each HDP420. ISF Certified Calibration Controls allow for professional set-up of 14 individual settings. Once programmed these cannot be deleted or altered unless intentionally modified. An all glass 12 element lens, DNX video processing by Pixelworks, Darkchip3 light engine by Texas Instruments, and proprietary software by Knoll, the HDP420 has all the best features, packed into one projector!

The high-speed color wheel virtually eliminates “rainbows” and disturbing motion artifact problems. Packaged in an aesthetically pleasing chassis, it can be ceiling or floor mounted.

Most movies are filmed in 2.35:1 to 2.40:1 aspect ratios (also known as Cinemascope). The HDP420 features built in scaling support to allow these images to be viewed at the highest possible resolution (30% or more higher resolution than a 1080p plasma or direct view lcd) called anamorphic (requires anamorphic lens, available separately). We recommend the Panamorph brand of anamorphic lens. Click here to go to the Panamorph web site.

The HDP420 delivers perfect high-definition images that light up the screen. It’s easy to indulge yourself, simply contact your local Knoll dealer for a demonstration.
