Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have owned this for 1 year. I read a negative review and thought I would share my thoughts. The projector is really cool. Nothing beats an 8 foot movie screen 10 feet from your face and the HD image this thing pumps out is every bit as good as a TV, but just not as bright, as you should expect.
This PJ is incredibly quiet for the image it projects. In order to find something that runs more silent you have spend at least 3 times as much money. The size is a bit larger on this unit than those higher end models probably due to that reason. I keep this unit on a shelf about 3 feet behind me and 6 feet above my chair. I usually run it in ultra low lamp mode to get better lamp life and to keep it quite. I can hear the fan after about an hour if I run it on the highest setting, with my audio on medium levels, but I just pump up the audio to max comfort level to compensate. On low lamp I can not hear the fan at all. I believe if I had a better set up in a larger room with it mounted to the cieling I probably would not hear the fan on high lamp mode. Low lamp mode is adequate at night, but it's fun to pump up the light to make the images pop and is necessary during the day if any light gets in the room.
Couple things. I watch a lot of tv and play video games for hours on end. I run the lamp for many hours straight and it's still good. But a cost of owning a PJ is replacing the lamp. I have not had to get one yet, but these lamps only go for about 250. I have over 1000 hrs and 1 year on this lamp.
You are supposed to clean the filter every 10 to 15 hrs. I hardley ever do it (like 3 times in the last year) and it always looks ultra clean. I do have a closed shelve type of thing with plenty of vent room on the side for the heat to disapate so maybe that helps. If it is mounted to a ceiling that may attract more circulating dust.
You have to have a dark dedicated room for any projector. any ambient light kills the image. Wife approval factor will be low if you try and put this in the main living room and close all the curtains everyday. The novelty of a huge screen is great, but everytime I see a big LCD in the store the image is SOOO much brighter. I have a 40 LCD in my workout room. These are great for movies, tv and games, but you should have a dedicated room or be a bachelor like me. Otherwise a big LCD tv is the way to go.
