LX65

Flexible, Reliable Performance
Again and Again

The Christie RoadRunner LX65 is the latest in the line of high-

brightness LCD projectors from Christie. The LX65 builds on the

success of the RoadRunner L6, stepping up both brightness and

performance levels to ensure your optimum presentation, no matter

what the environment.

The LX65 provides 6500 ANSI lumens brightness from a dual-lamp light

engine for bright, beautifully realistic images with no worries about

reliability, making this newest addition perfect for both Rental/Staging

and Fixed Installation environments. New 3D digital video processing

produces sharp video images from analog and digital sources, 90%

brightness uniformity and an 1100:1 contrast ratio take your image

presentation to the next level. The new Fast Lens Change (FLC™)

mount is a robust new lens mount system designed for no-fuss lens

changes and easy set-up. The LX65 is easy-to-use, perfect for the rigors

of the road, or in a corporate boardroom for spectacular displays.

The LX65 offers the choice of projecting 6500 ANSI lumens for stunningly

bright images, or 3250 ANSI lumens to extend the lamp life and provide

built-in redundancy for failsafe operation.

Feature-rich and supported by a full suite of optional lenses and

accessories, the LX65 is the perfect projector, whatever the challenge.

Compatible with the new Real Color Manager (RCM) software, users

can target and match the displayed color to specific gamma curves and

reference monitors for a picture-perfect presentation and real-life images.

Through the connectivity of ChristieNET™, you can monitor lamp life,

projector temperature and other vital functions over any network for

ultimate control and preventative maintenance.
