i have an upconvert dvd and direct tv hooked up to it with an hdmi cable and it looks beautiful.
when the install guys finished the work they stuck around for like an hour later popping in one blu-ray title after another because the picture was just so amazing for being so big.
"installation in a new-construction environment is pretty easy.my setup used a 110" widescreen firehawk g3 screen from stewart filmscreen, a sony bdp-s200 blu-ray single-disc player, a nintendo wii
the image quality is amazing, movies are incredible on this projector.
we received our new sony black pearl on feb 12, 2008 and we have had a wonderful time setting it up and watching hd tv and 1080p upconverted movies via our oppo 981-hd.
if you are looking to get this for every day tv watching please get a tv not this but if you want it for movies yes.
we run a long cable from our cable box in the house, tack a 12 foot fold up screen to the side of the house or garage door and show movies to the whole neigborhood, this year we also showed the mlb
cons: 1024x768 is somewhat low when you're trying to use this for anything other than movies and presentations.
strengths: fantastic picture, easy to use, makes dvds look like hd discs weaknesses: costly unit, replacement lamps are $999!
the source was a sony bluray dvd player and a br pressing of spiderman 2.
most projectors of this kind are designed for data projection, but this one can be used for movies.
dlp projector or any other brand noise interfere with experience of a great movie.
even regular dvds look as good as what i see in the theaters - i'm looking forward to getting blu-ray soon.
hdtv looks fantastic: images are crisp and black levels are better than i expected.
i have a movie theatre size screen on my wall.
i mostly use this projector for my dvd player and my game consoles.
the contrast is at its best around 85 and the brightness at around 65: daylight scenes look good even on a white wall, but the low contrast ratio of 350:1 is really bad for movies with excessive dark
the first thing i did was to buy a 95"screen(da-lite) next a dvd player(samsung) that doubles the lines to 1080 and then a hdtv tuner(lg).
