It offers up to 1200 ANSI lumens of brightness for the ability to light up very large screens. The black level of the VP-10S1 is extraordinary, with a contrast ratio of over 3600:1 for black level that rivals CRT. The VP-10S1 uses Marantz exclusive ORCA filter for unparalleled color accuracy and the complete Faroudja FLI2200 series chipsets for state of the art video processing using the legendary DCDi deinterlacing system. Finally, the optics are custom ground and coated glass from Minolta including a special exclusive coating on the combining prism for complete control over light scatter. With the VP-12 series, Marantz for three years has defined the state of the art in front projection. With pictures that good, it was hard to imagine what could be done to improve on things. Well, as good as the VP-12 is, a single chip design has certain limitations which are virtually impossible to overcome. By using a separate DMD device for each color, we have improved on several important areas, notably, low noise, color saturation and accuracy, motion artifacts and smoothness, brightness and contrast ratio. In a single chip projector, a filter in a color wheel is used for splitting the light source into the three primary colors, Red, Green, and Blue. Filters are very inefficient, throwing away much of the available light. In the VP-10S1 extremely accurate prisms are used in a two pass method to separate the light into the primary colors. This assures very wide spectrum colors to illuminate the individual panels. In addition Marantz' ORCA filter is used just after the bulb, color correcting the light to create a flat wide spectrum in which to work from. The result? At virtually any level, no matter how complex the scene, the VP-10S1 delivers extremely accurate and vivid colors, using the ATSC colorspace as a reference. In short, this might be the most color accurate video device ever created. A new era of video enjoyment Three DMD HD chip system Amazing colors In a single chip system, since no two colors are ever projected on the screen at any given moment, that fact might be seen during motion sequences. The VP-10S1, because of its advanced 3-chip design, has motion as smooth as the filmmaker intended. This can also be extremely important during sporting events. In addition, since each chip has the full frame (1/60 second) to deliver an image instead of 1/3 of a frame (1/180 second), there are less motion artifacts as well. Silky smooth motion In a color wheel system, much of the available light from the bulb is reflected off of the color wheel and is never recovered. Since there is no color wheel in the VP-10S1, all of the available light is delivered through the lens. This means that the VP-10S1 is exceptionally bright, measuring 1200 ANSI lumens. This projector is bright enough to yield SMPTE recommended brightness levels on screens up to about 200 diagonal. In addition this level of brightness allows viewing in higher ambient lighting conditions. But even though this projector puts out an amazing amount of light, it runs cool, due to its die cast aluminum chassis and complex ductwork for ventilation. Even though there is over 250 watts of heat to eliminate, the fans run virtually silent. The VP-10S1, due to all of its optical advancements, has a contrast ratio of over 3600:1! This is unheard of in the world of 3 chip digital projection, and may be the single most important spec of all. Because it is this number that describes how deep the blacks will be, and it is this black level that gives an image its punch. Furthermore, for smaller screens (110-140), the lamp can be put into economy mode, which will lower the absolute black level even more. The result is rich vibrant images that have a dimensionality previously impossible in solid state projection. Phenomenal brightness and efficiency Velvety blacks

Like the VP-12 series, the VP-10S1 uses custom designed multi-element, multi-coated all glass lenses from Minolta. These lenses are critical to the quality of the image projected by the VP-10S1 and are also partly responsible for the phenomenal contrast ratio. There are three lenses available which cover a tremendous amount of throw distances. New to the VP-10S1 is a horizontal lens shift which, when combined with the vertical lens shift and the incredible amount of flexibility in throw distances, makes the projector impossible not to fit in virtually any installation. In addition, the VP-10S1 has virtually any input that you could want, with composite and Y/C video, two multi-scan component jacks (one with BNC type connectors), RGB (D-Sub 15) and finally, a DVI connection for the ultimate signal quality in digital video (HDCP compliant). Todays video sources have two different configurations: interlaced and progressive. They also have many different resolutions: from 702 x 480 pixels of interlaced video in the NTSC format all the way up to 1280 x 780 pixels progressively scanned or 1920 x 1080 pixels displayed in an interlaced fashion for HDTV. In order to fill the screen on a fixed resolution device like the VP-10S1 with its 1280 x 720 pixels and maintain HD picture quality, extremely high quality video processing is required. For the VP-10S1, Marantz turned to the best resource: Faroudja Laboratories, the inventor of the first high quality line doubler, the originator of inverse telecine processing (better known as 3:2 pulldown), and three time Emmy award winner for excellence in video imagery. Suffice to say, that the VP-10S1 has the best video processing available today in an all-in- one product. The three lenses cover a range of as short as 1.44 – 1.8 times screen width for the short throw lens, 1.8 – 2.4 x width for the standard lens and an amazing 2.4 – 3.6 times the width for the long lens. This makes the VP-10S1 a perfect replacement for three gun CRT projectors or offers the possibility of outside-the-room mounting for the screening room type designs.
