Platinum Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 10180 Registered: Jun-06 | You MIGHT be my best source here so I'll give it a shot lol. I can't get any response over in home video. I'm in the market for a projector. Any suggestions? I have the perfect wall for it and I would be selling my big screen to offset the cost so do you have any ideas? Don't suggest a $2000 projector, I won't listen lol. I bought my mitsubushi for about $1500. I'm going to ask for about half that. Throw some projectors in that price range that are decent. I'm dying to have a 9' screen.  |

Platinum Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 10181 Registered: Jun-06 | Lol Yanks, yeah maybe but I've wanted one for quite some time now. And it would be almost no cost for me. I would just love to watch movies/sports on a screen size a projector is capable of. It would take up my entire wall. THAT would be awesome! I just know nothing about them and have a ton of questions. The last thing I need is some commission hungry salesman trying to convince me I need to drop 2 g's to get a decent picture. There are so many out there under a grand and I want to know if they're worth it.  |

Second, in the $1500 range you aren't going to find one that will throw a nine foot diagonal image worth a flying fuck. Paul, after you put down the crack pipe, come back down to earth, and start thinking reasonably at purchasing a quality decent sized reflective screen (Da-Lite, Draper)... look into the following brands that are an excellent choice at your budget: Optoma HD7100 Samsung SP-H710AE Mitsubishi HC100U InFocus IN36 |

Yes I knew a screen MIGHT have to be a purchase requirement, I just didn't know for sure. Every tv I've owned was either tube or big screen. Realistically the screen size would be in the 72" range, even tho I have a 9' wall surface to work with. Sorry for the bad info.  And I have yet to pick up the pipe tonight. Yet.  |

Gold Member Username: Thx_3417Bournemouth ... Post Number: 4564 Registered: May-05 | You can try browsing though "Google Products" thou it might be a very exhausting search looking for the best prices. I have my eye on a few UK biased suppliers that are doing video projectors under the £1000.00 pound mark. The link provided here seems to correspond to UK prices try using it over in the US I'm sure you'll find something that would suit your budget. http://www.google.co.uk/products?hl=en&resnum=0&q=video%20projectors%20&oe=UTF-8 &um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wf |

Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sMoney man, blowin Post Number: 2885 Registered: Feb-06 | but for the record, most screens and good projectors will run you a good 7 or 8 grand i would say... not to mention install and such |
