  SIM2's Description
After the success of Grand Cinema HT series, SIM2 realised the need to apply the projectors technology to a display device that could be utilised in a variety of rooms while fulfilling the need of the Home Theatre enthusiasts. The market is demanding a self contained product which features innovative exterior design and installation flexibility while maintaining the stunning picture the Grand Cinema HT projectors produce. With this concept in mind, SIM2 designed the Grand Cinema RTX line: a revolutionary concept where image quality, technology and design are combined.

Within the cabinet of the RTX, lies the heart of the system. Based on Texas Instruments DLP™ technology (HD2+ chip), the Grand Cinema RTX55H delivers sharp, high contrast (2300:1) images, edge-to-edge definition, an excellent colorimetry and grey scale tracking.

The Grand Cinema RTX 55H far exceeds today’s standards of technology: Features such as a fibre optic link, high speed laser, custom-made lens and engine, latest generation DCDi™ processing by Faroudja and finally HDMI™ input, all create a truly future proof product.

In fact, the RTX 55H integrate perfectly within your existing high-end audio system. All inputs can be conveniently connected via the SIM2 proprietary DigiOptic™ Image Processor, a remote system that channels the input feeds, including the newly added HDMI™ digital connector, along a thin kevlar-coated fibre optic cable to the RTX system. This, together with the RTX simple menus and vertical tilting system, make installation and set-up easy and fast.

SIM2 manufacturers all of their products with foresight and the RTX line is no exception. It can be constantly upgraded via the RS232 connector and is fully compatible with emerging products and technologies.

Also, the RTX line features three custom-made components (SIM2 patent rights): first, a high resolution projection lens for reduced cabinet depth; second, a specific Fresnel lens to match the DMD chip; and, third, an improved and sealed light engine for super-high contrast (2300:1) and black level.

The Grand Cinema RTX’s elegant cabinet (available in different colours) is immediately recognisable: A fancy crystal front, sophisticated shapes, and prestigious material make it a true masterpiece by the award winning designer - Giorgio Revoldini.
