You will find it hard to find a bad review on any of the current projectors, especially if any slight shortcomings are balanced against the price.
The HD1 is certainly a fine projector, but it does have its faults and it depends if those faults, however small, are important to you.
I sold my HD1 and replaced it with the Sharp XV-Z21000, which also has its faults, but overall I am much happier with it. Each to his own.

AVI and jaco5, give the guy a break, he asked if there are any tweaks not faults. Dont spoil his excitment before he has received it.

Klacey, I also have an HD-1 not a lot of tweaks needed its pretty good out of the box as I am sure you know, that is unless your looking for perfection.

Enjoy

Thanks Mick, i appreciate all comments so what Avi and jaco5 had said will not be ruining my day. Im not looking for perfection so i would think this projector will blow my mind, i didnt even get to demo it first, as my local sevenoaks is no more. But i trust and appreciate peoples imput on the forum, it was these guys that won me over.

So its your fault if i dont like it.

I didn't reply to the quote you have selected.
Read the post again and my reply. I said that it is a fine projector, but no projector is faultless.
Most people read these forums to acquire knowledge from other peoples experiences. I could have said, I owned an HD1 and it is faultless. What purpose would that have served?

Only trying to help. I assumed he hadn't demoed the PJ and thought it might be beneficial to read the feedback from another owner. At least that way he can check it out and return it (assuming it's covered by distance selling regs) if it bothers him rather than it becoming an issue later and being stuck with it.

We've sold a few of these and they are a fine projector, you should be very pleased with it.

Treat it to a good power lead. They respond very well to a £100.00 Wireworld mains lead.

To make it truly great, save up for a really good scaler like a iScan VP50 Pro or Pixel Magic Crystallio. Both of these will make it a 10k projector beater.

Enjoy yourself.

Thanks hi-fi man, i was thinking of buying a scaler, i wasnt sure how much of an improvement it would make, is it really worth investing in one?
The power lead is something i will get.

They will allow a higher degree of calibration than can be achieved via the JVC settings alone. That said neither of those VP's will enable the JVC to achieve proper colour calibration. If you want to be able to correct the JVC oversaturated colour gamut the only current solution is a Lumagen Radiance of soon to be released (in the US) JVC VP. If you're not looking for perfection in terms of calibration then it's probably not worth the investment as the internal Sigma VXP processor used by the JVC does a decent job.
