I’d be surprised if there are NZ to be found full stop let alone discounted. But ok on an even basis there probably isn’t much between them. Better motion and quicker handshake / input switching on the Sony? Better contrast on JVC?Out of interest, what makes that such a slam-dunk for you? I'd be surprised if you couldn't get an NZ7 for close to that after a couple of calls around. Native contrast should be better on the JVC, the brightness is similar, you have the option of using the JVC DTM, probably wider colour gamut, more forward looking input capabilities with HDMI2.1, etc. About the only thing on paper the Sony has going for it at the moment is a bit more installation flexibility and you can actually buy it today, maybe a bit more intra-scene contrast.
I think lumagen plus 790 would be a better value combo than lumagen plus NZ7.
Also I’m a tad narked at JVC and their rush to abandon the middle market not to mention UK pricing. I’m not sure I want to support that.
Oh and I do need fairly flexible installation.
