Home DLP

Question by Kevin K: I have FOUR Questions about DLP TV’s and Home Theater Projectors?
1. What dose 1000 Lumens mean? dose this mean 1000 hours on a lamps life?

2. Is there a differents between a DLP TV and a Home Theater Projector lasting longer then the other.

3. Which device is better to have….let me rephrase this question, which one of the products would have less technical problems?

4. When a DLP TV’s lamp life goes out isn’t the same replacement a person would have to make for a Home Theatre Projector?

Thankyou for your time

1. Lumens is brightness. The higher this number for a front projector, the better/brighter the image and the farther you can throw it.

2. Is there a difference – nothing definitive, but my friends who have front projectors tend to only use them for DVD movies and have some other TV for casual watching.

3. I would suggest a rear-projector DLP set as being more ‘mature’ and therefor more reliable. The one problem with a projector is people want to make it small. This means a lot of heat in a small package and this tends to ‘cook’ things. Rear projector TV’s have been around for 20-30 years and even if the guts have changed, the larger box gives the engineers a lot of options.

4. My lamp just went out after 3 years. I found a website on how to replace it my self, but I discovered my service contract still existed so they put in a new bulb for free.

You should be looking at a receivers from Onkyo or Denon and such as the Onkyo TX SR 608 and speakers by Jamo;Energy; Klipsch; Boston Acoustic; Fluance; Polk Audio; Jamo such as the Jamo S 606 5.1 or Jamo S426HCS3 and a sub from Jamo; Boston polk or Energy…a lot has to do with personal preference size of room how far you sit away from the speakers; how loud you listen etc….

Answer by Pete S
I have two LCDs and one DLP. For the smaller picture, go with the LCD.. but if you are going BIG, ours is 72 inch, go DLP. It looks great! But make sure it can handle the 1080p for future use.

A review of the projector in use. I test a hdmi input cable at 720p and use the internal decoder to play video files. Commentary on image quality and focus issues with lens and focus wheel. I hope people don’t think that I’m bashing this projector in the review, I quite like it. However, I feel that the technology is not ready yet. Unit issues with battery life and the quality of optics is improved these units will remain an interesting gadget as opposed to a workable real world display solution.
