Barco TruePix TP1.2-E vs Sony Crystal LED ZRD-CH12D

1.27 mm against 1.27 mm · specifications from both manufacturers' datasheets

This page puts the two sheets side by side, then builds the same wall from each tile, so the comparison is in panels, kilograms, circuits and data runs.

Whole cabinets rarely hit an identical size, so each wall is the closest build to a real video format (16:9 or 16:10) near 8 m wide for that tile: 7.93 × 4.46 m and 7.93 × 4.46 m respectively.

What the numbers say

• Both resolve to about the same density (619,351 and 619,414 pixels per square metre), so pick on weight, power or what your shop already owns rather than on image detail.
• Weight is close: 40 kg/m² for Barco TruePix TP1.2-E against 41 kg/m² for Sony Crystal LED ZRD-CH12D, so the rigging plot looks much the same either way.
• Barco TruePix TP1.2-E draws more: 712 W/m² against 574 W/m² at full white. For this wall that is 25.2 kW versus 20.3 kW, and 13 versus 13 circuits at a 16 A/230 V supply with an 80% derate.
• Both come out at 52 data runs for this wall, though they carry 4 and 4 panels per port respectively.
• Different cabinet formats: 609.92 × 343.08 mm against 610 × 343 mm, so 169 tiles versus 169 for the same wall. Fewer, larger cabinets build faster; smaller ones give finer control over wall dimensions and are easier to handle alone.
