MOTION PICTURE FILM QUALITY IMAGES / Sony’s Silicon Crystal Reflective Display (SXRDt) technology was
designed to perform like 35 mm movie film. QUALIA 004 has virtually vanquished the “screen door effect” (the
obscuring of images due to the areas that surround each pixel) by using small, inter-pixel spacing. While most 
projectors use defocusing to lessen the effect, the SXRD actually makes the space between the pixels smaller. The
result is a tremendous increase in clarity.

THE CLOSEST THING TO SUNLIGHT / The ideal light source for a projector is absolutely neutral, balanced, pure
white light. In order to get as close as possible to this theoretical perfection, QUALIA 004 uses a gas that radiates
most like real sunlight: pure Xenon. And that’s why Sony designed an Equal-Length Optical Path for the red, green
and blue SXRD panels. As a result, you’ll enjoy uncommonly natural color with brilliant reds, bright blues and skin
tones just like life itself.

COOLING SYSTEM / The pure Xenon lamp is a crucible of electricity and light requiring an exceptional cooling
system.The unique QUALIA 004 employs massive, aluminum heat sinks with radial spokes that efficientlyconduct
heat away from the lamp. QUALIA 004 incorporates low-resistant airflow, providing stable operation, effective
cooling and ultra-low noise.

POWERFULLY SIMPLE DESIGN /The design of QUALIA 004 is a masterful example
of perfect harmony between form and function.The arrangement provides Y-shaped
airflow to cool the great heat created by its pure Xenon lamp. Simultaneously, it
creates geometric accuracy, ensuring that all optical components, from lamp to lens,
are in a pure, straight line.
