There are movie theaters. And then there are IMAX movie theaters. Anyone who’s watched a film in an IMAX movie theater never forgets the breathtakingly large screen, bright and vivid visuals, heart-pounding audio, and expanded aspect ratio that delivers more picture than standard theaters.

What if you could unleash the power of IMAX at home? While your private theater won’t have a 50-foot tall screen and seat hundreds of people, you can bring IMAX’s signature picture and scale to your Bellevue, WA home with a Sony premium 4K projector. All Sony 4K projectors are IMAX Enhanced, making them ready to deliver the bigger and better IMAX visuals you love in compatible content.

What Is IMAX Enhanced?

IMAX Enhanced is a home theater certification program and performance standard created by IMAX and DTS (aaudio technology company known for its namesake surround sound audio format) to empower movie lovers to enjoy films to the fullest in the comforts of home.

To qualify as IMAX Enhanced, select high-end AV devices must go through an evaluation procedure and meet specific performance standards established by IMAX, DTS, and select Hollywood Studio technicians. IMAX determines whether submitted components meet the stringent video certification standards while DTS does the same for audio performance.

Why Choose Sony?

As an approved IMAX Enhanced projector line, all Sony 4K projectors have an IMAX mode that displays the expanded aspect ratio of IMAX Enhanced movies and allows you to enjoy the sharpest, highest-quality 4K HDR images of compatible content with reduced levels of noise and graininess.

Not only is Sony one of only three IMAX Enhanced projector lines, but their premium 4K HDR projectors lead the industry in performance. With selections for rooms large and small, you’ll never have to limit the design of your entertainment space. Choose the ultra-short throw projector model for flexible installation or go big with the luxury VPL-VW5000ES model, which is known as the world’s most advanced home cinema projector. We can help you find the right solution for your space and budget.
