Leica Stand for Cine Play 1

The stand for the Cine Play 1 transforms Leica’s compact 4K projector into a true centerpiece of your entertainment space. This dedicated support solution, crafted from brushed metal, raises the projector to around 80 centimeters from the floor while completely concealing the cabling thanks to an integrated pin-contact system. Beyond its primary function as a stand, it turns the Cine Play 1 into a contemporary decorative object that blends naturally into modern interiors.

A design created to enhance the projector

The stand for the Cine Play 1 is the result of extensive thought about how to integrate a projection device harmoniously into a contemporary home. Its brushed metal structure reflects the characteristic expertise of Leica, the German company whose origins date back to 1849, when Carl Kellner founded an optics institute in Wetzlar.

The 80-centimeter height has been calculated to provide an optimal projection angle in most home setups. This elevation positions the bottom of a 100-inch projected image at around 90 centimeters from the floor, creating comfortable viewing conditions in any type of space.

The clean lines and metallic finish extend the projector’s aesthetic, creating a coherent visual ensemble that transcends mere functionality. This approach echoes the Bauhaus philosophy that has long influenced Leica’s creations. The base of the stand provides perfect stability despite the projector’s 6.7 kg weight, ensuring the absence of vibrations that could compromise the sharpness of the 4K image.

The pin-contact system: a discreet but fundamental innovation

The stand’s most innovative feature is its integrated pin-contact system. This technology powers the projector without any visible cable between the stand and the device. The power connectors are hidden within the structure of the stand itself and automatically align with those of the projector during assembly.

This system eliminates unsightly cables while securing the electrical connection. Power is routed through the base of the stand, where the mains cable plugs discreetly into the rear. A mechanical keying system ensures the projector can only be mounted in the correct position, guaranteeing perfect alignment of the electrical contacts and eliminating any risk of error during installation.

Installation and adjustments: simplicity and precision

The stand has been designed so that anyone can install it. The supplied mounting kit includes a rod with connector, a base plate, two M6 screws, one M8 screw, and the corresponding Allen keys.

The process begins by removing the projector’s circular base, then attaching the stand’s rod in its place. The keying system ensures correct positioning, and the supplied screws firmly secure the assembly. Once everything is mounted, the electrical connection is established automatically. You simply plug the power cable into the rear of the base and the setup is ready to use.

The stand allows you to adjust the projector’s tilt through 90 degrees vertically, so it can accommodate different screen heights. This flexibility guarantees optimal projection regardless of the room layout.

Exclusive compatibility with the Leica Cine Play 1

The stand was developed specifically for the Leica Cine Play 1 projector. This exclusivity guarantees perfect compatibility both mechanically and electrically.

The Cine Play 1 uses a 3000 ANSI-lumen RGB triple-laser light source and a Summicron lens manufactured to Leica standards. Its native 4K resolution and full BT.2020 color space coverage ensure remarkably precise images on diagonals from 65 to 300 inches. The combination of stand and projector creates a system where every element is designed to integrate harmoniously, reflecting Leica’s holistic approach, inherited from its century-old expertise in precision optics.

Transforming the space and enhancing aesthetics

The stand for the Cine Play 1 plays a decisive role in enhancing the aesthetics of the projection area. By raising the projector and eliminating visible cables, it turns a technical device into a fully assumed decorative object, in line with the trend of audiovisual equipment becoming an integral part of the interior design.

The stand’s height frees up floor space, creating a sense of openness. The whole system has a minimal footprint while still providing optimal projection, a valuable advantage in interiors where space is at a premium. The absence of visible cables contributes to the clean look, illustrating the attention to detail that has characterized Leica since it was founded by Ernst Leitz and since Oskar Barnack developed the first 35mm camera in 1914.
