InFocus X9 Projector Calibration

The X9 has no separate R,G,B controls to fine tune grayscale balance, just a color temp slider. That adjustment has virtually no effect with Brilliant Color of, and isn't needed with Brilliant Color on.

And this set is for PC mode (Game mode is almost identical, within the error range of our equipment). Again,

Both of these are very much "good to go", a good thing, due to the lack of separate controls to adjust.

For sports and some HDTV viewing in PC (or Game) mode, you may want to increase the color temp setting by one, to reduce red a small amount. I suggest trying that out. I recommend not changing the color temp for Movie mode.

Bottom line, is that with Brilliant Color on, in Movie mode, the InFocus X9 really does have extremely good color, without a calibration of grayscale.

Lamp Mode: Full power for all measurements, and settings.

As is typical, there is a slight shift in color in Eco-mode. We did check out Eco-mode's effect on color temperature. Based on our measurements for 100 IRE, in low power, Movie mode, with Brilliant Color off, was slightly cooler (more blue), at 6238K instead of 6118K at full power.That's a slight shift, but in the right direction, toward 6500K. That means Movie mode is a tiny bit closer to ideal when in low power. With Brilliant color on, since those numbers (except dark gray (30 IRE) are all around 6550K, again, no harm and maybe a touch better in low power - not enough to really consider.
