As it turns out, the Z9D is nice and neutral after calibration.

Good to know then. I have great results after HD Calibration with our old Bravia, but then it doesn't have the new chip.

Of course, there will be those who criticize before asking pertinent questions about calibration, etc. I'm ok with how the set performs pre-calibration, displaying the quality that is not yet maximized.

Colour
This was probably the one rare occasion where we wished Sony had implemented a more advanced colour management system (CMS) on a Bravia TV beyond the basic [Colour] and [Hue] controls. As you can see from the CIE graph below, our 65-inch ZD9 sample painted most colours in a slightly oversaturated manner. Theoretically, lowering the global [Colour] setting could work to rectify the oversaturation, but unfortunately in practice, doing so also increased the colour luminance errors, making it a no-go.
Nevertheless, potential owners will be pleased to know that despite this mild oversaturation, only 1 out of 140 patches measured in the Colour Checker SG chart exceeded the humanly perceptible threshold of delta error (dE) 3. In other words, colours would mostly look accurate and realistic in real-world content.

Chuck, did you have a good deal on your Sony model 4K front projector?
