What Difference Will A 4k Capable DVD Player Make?

.
My projector has:

Native: 1024x768
and
Maximum: 1600x1200

pixel ratings.

Will I see any picture improvement with one of the new Oppo 103 or 105 Blu Ray players with the 4k video upscaling?

My screen is 16 feet wide and 9 feet tall for a 220 inch diagonal picture. I currently get an excellent picture now. Just wondering if the 4k upscaling in a new Oppo will kick things up a notch.

..thanks,.....mitch

Me too Mitch. Although you could probably charge admission to your room. I know I'd like to see it!

Mitch, try a 1080p projector, it will do a better job on your 220" screen.

Why buy into this 4K thing when they are talking about 8K.

Imhififan, I think my quantum leap in picture quality lies in your suggestion. I found a BenQ projector with 50,000:1 contrast ratio, 4,000 lumens and 1920 x 1080. All for under $3,000. This is a good deal for me.

My current projector throws a beautiful picture, but its specs are nowhere near those of the above projector. My current projector is only 2,000:1 contrast ratio, 3,000 lumens and 1024 x 768.

..thanks,

mitch
