Description
The Epson EH-LS970B is Epson's flagship ultra-short-throw laser projector, built to turn an ordinary living room into a genuine 4K home cinema. Sitting just inches from the wall, it casts a huge picture of up to 150 inches, with class-leading brightness, deep contrast, built-in Sound by Bose and smart Google TV. No ceiling mount, no dark room, no compromises.
Up to 150 inches from inches away
With an extreme 0.16 to 0.40 ultra-short throw ratio, the EH-LS970B sits on a console right against the wall and still fills it with a screen of up to 150 inches. There are no cables across the room and no ceiling installation, you place it, switch on and watch. It's the ideal answer for living rooms and apartments where a traditional long-throw projector was never an option.
Brilliant, detailed 4K PRO-UHD picture
Powered by Epson's 3-chip 3LCD technology and 4K PRO-UHD processing, the EH-LS970B produces a crisp, vivid, true-to-life image. At 4,000 lumens with a 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio and HDR support (HDR10 and HLG), it stays bright and punchy even with the lights on, while dark scenes show real depth and shadow detail. Reviewers consistently praise just how bright and contrast-rich it looks, with fine detail that holds up beautifully across a 150-inch wall.
Long-life laser light source
The laser light source is rated for up to 20,000 hours, so there are no lamps to replace and no bulb costs over the life of the projector. It reaches full brightness almost instantly and keeps its colour and output stable for years of viewing.
Room-filling Sound by Bose
Where most projectors send you shopping for a separate sound system, the EH-LS970B builds in a Sound by Bose audio system for rich, immersive, room-filling sound straight out of the box. Reviewers repeatedly call out the powerful, full-bodied audio, so you can enjoy films and shows with real impact without adding any extra speakers.
Smart streaming and gaming ready
Google TV is built right in, so Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, YouTube and thousands of other apps run directly on the projector with Chromecast and voice search included. Gamers are looked after too, with support for 4K at 120Hz for smooth, responsive big-screen play.
Discreet design, effortless setup
Designed to blend into a living space rather than dominate it, the EH-LS970B looks more like a piece of premium furniture than a projector. Between the ultra-short throw, built-in sound and smart platform, setup is genuinely effortless, place it, point it at the wall, and you're watching within minutes.
In short: as Epson's flagship ultra-short-throw, the EH-LS970B brings together a giant 4K picture, premium sound, gaming-ready performance and zero installation hassle. If you want the best big-screen living-room experience without a dedicated theatre, this is it. Backed by 3-year Epson Australia warranty, fast Australian delivery and local support.
