The QB1000 model delivers 3,300 lumens, while the QL3000 and QL7000 models offer up to 6,000 and 10,0003 lumens respectively, ensuring vibrant, true-to-life visuals.  

Epson releases new Q-Series 4K laser projector lineup poised to redefine home entertainment viewing experiences.

Designed for custom integrators, architects and interior designers looking to create captivating big-screen entertainment in today’s great rooms, the QL3000 and QL7000 combine proprietary 4K Display Techology4 with HDR105 and true 3-chip 3LCD thermal-controlled and Double Micro-Lens Array technologies to produce a full 8.29 million pixels on screen up to 300 inches. When combined with the Epson QZX Picture Processor, the projectors optimize incredible brightness, color accuracy and black contrast to faithfully display content the way the director intended it to be seen. Certified for use with major smart home control systems, from Control4® and Creston®, a virtually maintenance-free 20,000-hour laser light source6, and the capability to support 4K HDR gaming at up to 120 Hz, the family of Q-Series projectors brings immersive home viewing experiences to new levels.

Catering to premium home theater enthusiasts, the QB1000 delivers a full 8.29 million pixels on screen with proprietary 4K Display Technology3 with HDR10+ and 3-chip 3LCD laser array technology to deliver the ultimate premium viewing experience. Equipped with UltraBlack™ technology, Epson QZX Picture Processor and Epson VRX Cinema lens, the QB1000 produces outstanding contrast, color accuracy and image clarity.

The QL3000 and QL7000 come as “Body Only” – without a lens – as they are compatible with the entire family of Epson High Precision Lenses to design an optimal projection solution for nearly any application.
