Looking For A High Quality, Moderately Priced Projector - Blu-ray Forum

Trekkie313 · 11-22-2010, 05:08 PM

My basement home theater is small compared to my living room upstairs, I really don't want an LCD or Plasma because they tend to look like shit up close. I play my PS3 closer to the TV than when I watch a movie and would hate to not be able to read the text or menus because of the distance.

The maximum distance I can put a projector away from the screen is about 8 feet.

What would you guys recommend? I'd take either a digital or CRT projector that has high PQ.

Panasonic 4000 and Epson 8500.

Epson - PowerLite Home Cinema 8100 Projector

great value for the price...been eyeing this one for myself, but will probably not be able to afford anything fr a long time anyway.

Other members have and love it... all reviews are pos for it. If I was in the market for one (and I wish I was), this would be it!

I would go with either the Panny 4000 or one of the Epson pj.

Panasonic for sure. If you were closer you could come check one out in person.
