Suggest Used Projector HD compat for approx 4K?


Does anyone have any suggestions for used front projectors (hd compatible) for about 4K. I am leaning towards a vidikron vpf 40 because I have heard crt is the way to go. Words of Wisdom? It has to be used so I can save some $$

i went to the CES and saw the Dream Vision projectors and was very impressed. How does these compare with Barcos or Sony . HTSteve

Sony VPH-G70 CRT Projector
Keep Checking for this model you should be able to pick one up for around 4K used .
This is probably the best CRT Projector made for Home Theatre period , for many reasons .
But if you do go to purchase one be carful because they are fairly hard on tubes when used comercially .
This is a comment sent to me by the largest Projector store in the UK .
"G70's do make a lot of money, I have 2 in stock but both are expensive because we generally have to fit 2 or 3 new tubes.They are very heavy on tubes when used commercially because they are really to bright for there own good. I have one we put 3 tubes in at 1927 hours and one we put 2 tubes in at 3800 hours,that gives you some idea of potential problems with a used G70 that has not been privately owned and used."
But you should be able to pick up one retubed for around your price.
