Eclipse G3
Christie Eclipse G3 True HDR RGB Pure Laser Projector
Flagship 6DLP native 4K RGB pure laser projector with 30,000 ANSI lumens, true HDR performance, up to 20,000,000:1 sequential contrast, and approximately 98% Rec.2020 color coverage.
Overview
The Christie Eclipse G3 sits at the absolute top of projection performance, delivering true HDR imaging with black levels and contrast behavior unattainable on conventional projector architectures. Using a unique 6DLP design and solid-state RGB pure laser illumination, Eclipse G3 is specified at 30,000 ANSI lumens with native 4K (4096 x 2160) resolution and up to 20,000,000:1 sequential contrast when paired with supported lens configurations. Christie states the system maintains 100% brightness for the first 50,000 hours, providing exceptional long-term stability for elite private cinemas and mission-critical display environments. With TrueLife+ processing, high frame rate support (up to 4K 120Hz in 2D), wide I/O including HDMI 2.1, multi-DisplayPort, and 12G-SDI, plus optional Christie Conductor fleet management for up to 256 projectors, Eclipse G3 is engineered for the most demanding reference-grade installations.

Integrating Christie Eclipse G3 into Ultra-Reference Private Cinemas
At Kolosseum, Eclipse G3 is reserved for clients pursuing the highest achievable projection performance, where black floor, HDR realism, and color volume targets exceed conventional high-end projectors. This platform is specified only when the room architecture, electrical infrastructure, cooling plan, and acoustic strategy are engineered as a complete system from day one.
Room Requirements
Eclipse G3 projects are designed around dedicated infrastructure, including power provisioning, thermal load management, chiller location planning, and service access. We model projection, ventilation, and environmental stability in early-stage design documentation.
Recommended Screen Pairing
Screen selection is tightly coupled to lens strategy, target luminance, and viewing geometry. In many projects, large premium acoustically transparent surfaces are paired with lens and contrast configuration chosen for the specific room objective.
Acoustic Considerations
Although projector noise is controlled for this class, best-practice installations isolate both projector and cooling components. Acoustic separation is typically integrated into architectural and mechanical design at concept stage.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Christie Eclipse G3 True HDR RGB Pure Laser Projector.
Its 6DLP true HDR architecture enables genuine black-level performance and contrast behavior that conventional projector systems cannot replicate, while also delivering 30,000 ANSI lumens and very wide color coverage.
It is generally specified for elite, purpose-built rooms with substantial infrastructure planning. Most standard home theater projects do not require or accommodate this system class.
Yes. Christie specifies support up to 4K 120Hz for 2D and active 3D up to 60Hz per eye.
Eclipse G3 uses an external chiller architecture, allowing significant heat and noise management to be decoupled from the projector head and integrated into the room design strategy.
Eclipse G3 is typically quoted and delivered through specialist channels with design, integration, commissioning, and calibration as part of a complete project scope.
