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 $1500 you can pick up a refurb Benq w6000 or a Mitsubishi hc4000 for a $1000. The Epson is nice..The Benq throws a better image.
I agree with you on the 8350 to a certain extent Avgoround. I honestly never found the image to have that pop you describe. For 1200 its a good unit with great flexibility. But one can do much better for not a whole lot more money.

The HD65 is another unit,that is OK, but is way too dim for my taste. Black levels are lacking severely. It does have great pop in certain movies,such as animations. Hell what projector doesn't pop with this stuff though? lol

You got a great deal on the JVC. That unit is currently re-badged as a JVC HD250.

I have a DLP that will give your JVC a run for the money! ;-)
