I still dont get those not informed enough these days to know projectors and even more to advise on them. It can cost far less for a pro and screen compared to larger wall displays, just remember nobody ever says "I wish I had gone with a smaller screen". There are few reasons that a projector is a absolute no go, and it certainly is no longer cost.
Projector question
I want to install a projector in our "media" room and get rid of the plasma tv. It would be used almost exclusively for movies. Maybe a little gaming and a little watching sports. Here's the thing, I know nothing about projectors. Budget of $1200-$1500. Do I want LCD, DLP, screen, painted "screen", etc?
Thanks

For 1299.00 this is a very good model: http://www.projectorcentral.com/Epson-PowerLite_Home_Cinema_8350.htm I saw it at CEDIA and was very impressed. |
I bought the Epson 8350 a few months back to replace my old Infocus X-1 projector....I'm very happy with the Epson. I paid $1,199 for mine. (Visual Apex....an online dealer) You do need to do some reading at the sites mentioned above before you buy, because the projector you buy "must" fit your needs for "your" room. I use my projector for DVD movies, wii games, sports, and netflix streaming. Dave |
I don't understand the comment to go with a 70" at 4k. A projector and screen can be had easily for less than 4k. I got a jvc hd250 and a screen for less than 3k and there are far more choices out there. IMO if you don't think it can be done for less than 6k you haven't spent time with them or seen some of the offerings out there. Epson and panasonic are very nice at their price points. Also your too And external light will make a difference in how well it will look. |
