Don't forget the original "Dreamvision" doesn't do HD. The model that does HD is BIG-BUCKS.

Barco vcision is the ONLY way to go for home theater but Barco wont sell them to the public???????????? You have to have your "interior decorator" contact them so they can pump the price up to $50K+ to get one installed, like celebs do... the industry wnats YOU to buy big-screen TVs instead-too bad, what a arip off. I have an old Barco off a jet airplane. with 14 foot diag screen makes my home theater better than any on the open market!! [email protected] |
mnoreng, Steve, anyone: Can you ofer wisdom to me? I have a Barco Data 800 CRT projector, a Vidikron ET-100DS line doubler, and a non-progressive Sony DVP-S500D DVD player. Would I get a better resolution, scan rate, and picture using, or by-passing the line doubler? I could use it (s-video in from the DVD player, then RGB out @ 31.5 kHZ out to the CRT), or use the adapter and go from the DVD player's component-video output to the CRT's RGB input. So far no one in any forum can offer what is best on this hook-up. TIA, Scott |
If you desire convenience, go digital. If you desire picture quality and have a light controlled room, go crt. There are several brands of great 8" crt projectors that can be purchased within your budget. NEC 135LC, Sony G70, Electrohome 8500, Barco 808 are regarded as the best. You will also need to budget for a screen and a processor, scaler, or HTPC. I would also suggest you budget for a professional set up. Crt projectors require little maintenance once they have been properly set up and calibrated. I have a 245 lb 9" crt hanging from my ceiling and love it. You really notice how crappy digital is after you get used to watching a great crt projector. Go to www.avsforum.com for more projector info than you will ever want. |
