In Reply to: I would agree tubes are best ..... posted by EdM on September 25, 2002 at 12:53:42:
I noticed you mentioned that before. Sure not true with mine. The room is only 12' wide, but you can see perfectly from anywhere in the room, so +/- 6' off center for a ~4' wide screen. That's not bad at all, larger viewing space than you get with a "tiny" tube. It's the vertical field of view which is *extremely* limited, I mean CRITICAL. The lighting does not have to be anywhere near as dim as for most (all?) projectors to prevent washout. Around here, a plasma almost the same size as my RPTV costs more than 6 times as much for little benefit except great cool factor.Plus, we must remember all RPTV's aren't created equal. The ones we use at work are about $50k each (3 per room) and I still haven't seen anything better for resolution and clarity...need a dedicated *clean* projection room for these though. They are much brighter than our similar-cost front projection systems. I'm only mentioning this because RPTV gets knocked for being a poor-cousin less capable technology, when it's not really if you can afford the proper setup (good/large mirrors and optics are very expensive).
