I am looking to replace a JVC X70. I flirted with the idea of the Epson LS10000 but have spent today browsing threads and am back onto the JVC X7000 having also considered other options. Is this a good time to buy or will new models on the horizon result in a drop in price or offer a better option for this price range?
I solved this.
Its basically down to the flaky HDMI on the X7000.
I took the Sky Q Silver and ran it into my Oled, set it to 2160 resolution, then reattached to the X7000 and lo and behold, the handshake happened. Unfortunately, I couldn't revert to 1080 then, so had to follow the same process to reverse in the interests of experimentation.
The handshakes are very temperamental......
Don't do this with equipment powered up (I can't tell if you meant this or not) as this can damage HDMI boards as they don't like 'hot swapping'. I may have killed my old Lumagen Mini3D doing something similar...
