Hello All,
After a long wait and research I picked up Epson TW7100. It has been a day and I am not happy with overall image in terms of saturations, colors and I have been trying to do lots of tweaks in settings to overcome it. My setup includes Denon AVR X1500h, Nvidia Shield Pro, 120 inch normal screen on which Epson is projecting from distance of 15 feet.
Here are some of the problems i see.
1. When source movie is 4K HDR (Tried Avatar, Black Adams, Avatar way of water), colors looks quite artificial like greens are too greens, blues are too blue... Its far far far away from theater quality. Tried working with color saturation, Gamma and what not... Some scenes looks good and some scenes are pretty bad (To my taste even though i was using pretty old NEC XGA res projector earlier). In Black Adam some scenes were showing too black ( I reduced HDR levels to 1 to make it little brighter But its not practical to do changes with scenes by scenes or a movie by movie)..
2. When movie source is YouTube (Full HD), images looks too soft and not at all punchy. Apart from that some of the scenes/songs its too Reddish.. I have set NVidia shield to do AI enhancement upscaling with Highest details.
3. If source is Dolby Vision (Kodi + Ezra has a lots of it), image becomes completely washed out and reddish and its unwatchable actually.. I believe this projector does not support Dolby vision.
4. Do we need to do any color calibration ? Installation guy just installed and set it to Cinema mode and said its works great in this mode and can be changed to other modes for better brightness...
I also set Denon 4K signal to Enhance mode mode. Tried playing around with almost every settings and but unable to find a setting which works great across all the scenes and source.
I read immense praise about this and 9400 model and this model, I was expecting a lot but its let down.. I tried Apple TV 4K as well and was not happy with that output..
With so much of deep expertise of forum members, I am looking to tweak the settings to get the best theater quality picture experience from this Projector.
Experts, may you Please share your settings of projector and source settings (nVIDIA shield, Apple TV, AVR) for different type of movie sources (4K , 4K HDR, Full HD).
Thank you in advance for your attention and read..
