Title: HD projectors?
Post by: BC on March 26, 2007, 08:35:35 PM

Anyone with some good links for info/reviews of HD projectors? Due to logistical issues, I think I am going to have to go the projector route instead of the Sony XBR I was planning on...

I'm not a fountain of information, but I have one, and I highly recommend it.  I think its awesome.  How big of a screen are you looking to go for?   

The biggest regret I have with my purchase is that I don't have hdmi inputs.  Take that advice!   :)

Nothing too big, ~60" screen size or so would be fine with me. I wil def. look for one with HDMI, I want to go 1080p for sure.

Thanks for the tips guys, +.

60"!!!  Sorry but go 100"+  Personally I would head over to the display devices board at avsforum.com.  I've had the Infocus SP 7205 for nearly 3yrs and it is still running strong.  Has great PQ with exceptional 6500K right out of the box.  I'd be looking at either the Sony Ruby, Pearl, or the new JVC RS1/HD1.

I agree with scott.  It's all about making it consume you.

I think projector is the way to go, personally.  I bought my house specifically becuase of the finished basement, anticipating purchasing one.
