Introduction

With 1080p front projectors continuing to come down in price, single-chip DLP models well under $5000 USD are now becoming the norm. But our background to approaching Optoma’s HD80 front projector is a bit convoluted: although we’ve used many DLP-based projectors throughout the years we’ve gotten used to the “look” of LCD panel technologies rather than those being driven by a color wheel. So we must “unlearn” some of the things now taken for granted and go back to our home theater roots, all in the name of fidelity. Priced at $2999 USD, the Optoma HD80 adds 1080p resolution and a high 10,000:1 contrast ratio to your home theater room.
