In Reply to: Re: Questions on projectors.... posted by monk on January 07, 2004 at 02:53:51:
Monk:What a great post. As a new front projector convert myself, I heartily agree. At the beginning of Dec I was all set to buy a large RPTV. Instead, I decided to jump into the front PJ world and am I glad I did! My Z1 on a 102" Carada screen looks very good indeed. Two of the things that swayed my mind were one, the easy path of future upgrades. If I'd bought that 65" RPTV, I was pretty much stuck with it. Pretty difficult to sell AND move a 250 pound monster. With the projector, I figure it will be quite easy to sell on audiogon or ebay 6-24months down the road if I want to get a better one. The other real feature is that the projector takes up almost no space in the room (hangs from my ceiling). The screen only sticks out about 1" from the wall. When on, it is kind of like having a 102" plasma:)
Follow Ups:
Yes,...my cousins bought a Z1 and have been delighted with it. I'm currently using a Sharp PGM-M20X (on 2nd bulb, changed first after 2000 hours) and had an NEC LT-150 before that. It was actually seeing the LT-150 that led my cousins to buy the Z1. The LT-150 was good, but a little loud and no zoom - other than that, not much to complain about (well, 1000 hour bulb life on the NEC is not the best either I suppose).And I know what you mean with the 65" RPTV,...the pictures are often great, but who wants one of those monsters dominating the room or moving them around. The RPTV dominates a room that a FP could invisibly (literally with some installations) blend into the room,...I like it :-)
