These exceptional projectors are the ultimate expression of Barco Residential’s unwavering dedication to craftsmanship and image quality. Built with the best professional cinema technologies and fully DCI compliant, they have been exclusively enhanced for the home environment. The choice of film professionals.

Pulse series

The Pulse series has two benefits, they are tailored to be used in dedicated theater rooms or controlled light environments. They are designed for the true cinephile who desires accurate images and consistent Rec. 709 or DCI/P3 color performance, as intended by the movie director. But at the same time, some of the models have enough light to be used in environments with greater ambient light, delivering excellent image quality in adverse lighting conditions.
