Runco revolutionary LED cinema projector range hits the UK
QuantumColor Series provides unsurpassed movie performance

Runco, market leader in luxury video solutions for more than 20 years, has changed the landscape of custom home theatre projection once again with its QuantumColor Series projectors. The revolutionary Q-750i and Q-750d models pair game-changing, energy-saving LED technology with proprietary Runco engineering to create unsurpassed performance and unrivaled customisation. Utilising Runco proprietary InfiniLight, Personal Color Equalizer and Runco Smart Color, Runco has created products that will revolutionise home theatre projection.

Distributed exclusively in the UK by Pulse Marketing, the Runco QuantumColor Series Q-750i and Q-750d maximise the benefits of Runco’s new InfiniLight lampless LED illumination technology to provide an infinite light source that creates an energy-efficient projector with the widest colour gamut ever seen in home theatre projection.

In addition, Runco’s revolutionary new Personal Color Equalizer, allows colour adjustment that includes settings exactly matched to the definition of Hollywood’s cinematographers and the colour preferences of each individual viewer for each source. Finally, Runco Smart Color (RSC) provides a hue compensation curve and gamut mapping that allows for lifelike, accurate flesh tones while increasing colour saturation – without sacrificing the purity of other colours.

The Q-750i and Q-750d can also be paired with Runco’s award-winning CineWide and CineWide-with-AutoScope technology. CineWide provides uncompromised widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the CinemaScope 2:35:1 format. It maintains constant vertical height on the screen just as in a movie theatre. When a viewer transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to super wide 2.35:1, the image simply gets wider while full screen height is maintained – eliminating useless black bars on the top and bottom of the screen.

Key features
• Lampless, solid-state illumination, with no colour wheel or mechanical iris, enable significantly enhanced reliability
• Never-before-seen colour gamut, Runco’s Personal Color Equalizer proprietary color management and Runco SmartColor hue compensation curve.
• The Q-750i and Q-750d use 70% less power than lamp-based projection with Runco InstantOn,eliminating the need to leave projector in power-consuming “standby” mode
• Only Runco has harnessed LED illumination “properly”, to deliver a projector that has it all – no lamp to replace, never-before-seen colours, high reliability, low power consumption
• Runco Red Carpet: advanced exchange service plan, offering industry-unique, added-value support

Review: LG 15EL9500 OLED HDTV

OLED TV, it’s the future. Well that is what we’ve been told for the last 5 years, at least. However, it seems to have taken longer than anticipated for the technology to mature and develop and yet, even now, large screen sizes are still technically difficult to manufacture, with an acceptable lifespan and failure rate. [...]

Review: Philips 37PFL7605 LED LCD HDTV

Philips has had a habit of doing things their own way and releasing TVs with features not seen from any other manufacturer. Just look at their 21:9 LCD TV, for example. But doing things your own way can sometimes fly in the face of how things should be done. So with that in mind we [...]

Review: Onkyo TX-SR608 AV Receiver

Everybody wants everything these days. Each year the consumer electronics industry feeds us with new reasons to render our latest pride and joy obsolete, which gives us ever-lengthening lists of features that (we think) we need. The problem is that expectations are so high we get upset when we don’t get it. Receivers seem to [...]

Review: Sharp LC-40CT2E LCD HDTV

With all the ‘Quattron’ advertising in the press and online, and with Sulu on the TV, you could be forgiven for thinking that Sharp were repositioning themselves as a high-end, high price, brand. But as you can see from the model we have here for review, the Aquos range of TVs for 2010 also includes [...]
