which projector to buy for home cinema viewing?




Syed Aftab


Please guide me with respect to DLP vs LCD, contrast ratio, brand, resolution, performance to decide what projector to buy.


Answer
LCD Projectors: Strengths
* Richer color dynamics for better results in rooms with ample ambient light
* Draw less power
* Throw less heat
* No color filter wheel = No "rainbow effect"
* Slightly quieter Seemingly sharper image on data

DLP Projectors: Strengths
* Smoother video
* Smaller box
* Pixels far less visible, (although normally not an issue for business use)
* More âfilmlikeâ on DVD and HDTV
* Generate "blacker" blacks
* Higher contrast

LCD Projectors: Disadvantages
* More visible pixels
* Some screen door effect on certain video images
* Physically larger - Even for the same number of lumens
* Poorer contrast
* Blacks come out lighter gray than DLP prrojectors

DLP Projectors: Disadvantages
* Rainbow effect bothers some
* More moving parts (color filter wheel)
* Color filter wheel often produces soft but audible whine
* Poorer reds and yellows at full power
* Color saturation
* Need more lumens than LCD, for rich colors, when dealing with ambient light

which one is best?...you can compare both above yourself and ask yourself what criteria you can't accept then you got the best one. do like check sheet to compare.

Quietening down a home cinema projector ???




jbenny1


Does anyone one have any ideas for quietening down a home cinema projector. I know the fans are a must for keeping the bulb cool, but when the film comes to a dramatic tense scene everything falls silent and all i can hear is the fans in the background. It's not a problem during must of the film just little bits. I got he quietest projector i could find a Sony VPL-ES2, which uses 2 60MM case fans, could i change these for better ones or how about liquid cooling like that used on silent PC's. Anyone got any suggestions ???


Answer
I would not suggest modifying the projector because the projector is designed to be used by those fans. Modifying may damage the lamp and other components of your system.

In the home theater industry, there are 3 ways:

1) Most home theater projectors have high and low power mode. Changing to low power mode will lower the fan speed.

2) There are boxes that are sold to surround the projector to dampen the sound.

3) Ceiling mount the projector will move the sound. Also, optimal ceiling installation should not be located above you, but behind you.
