Epson PowerLite X9 Specification

The Epson PowerLite X9 is a versatile LCD projector designed for both educational and business environments, delivering reliable performance and vibrant image quality. This model features a native XGA resolution of 1024x768 pixels, providing clear and detailed visuals suitable for presentations and multimedia content. With a brightness of 2500 lumens, the PowerLite X9 ensures bright and vivid images even in well-lit rooms, while its contrast ratio of 2000:1 enhances the depth and clarity of displayed content.

The projector is equipped with 3LCD technology, which ensures accurate color reproduction and eliminates the rainbow effect commonly found in DLP projectors. This technology utilizes three separate LCD panels to produce a full range of colors, resulting in smoother and more natural images. The PowerLite X9 offers a range of connectivity options, including HDMI, VGA, S-Video, and composite video inputs, making it compatible with a variety of devices such as computers, DVD players, and gaming consoles.

The Epson PowerLite X9 also features a quick start-up and instant off, allowing users to begin presentations without delay and pack up quickly afterwards. Additionally, it includes a built-in 2W speaker, which provides adequate audio output for small to medium-sized rooms, though external speakers may be preferable for larger venues. With its compact design and lightweight build, the projector is portable and easy to install, suitable for ceiling mounting or tabletop use. The lamp life is rated at up to 4000 hours in eco mode, reducing the need for frequent replacements and contributing to cost-effective operation over time.
