“I purchased the InFocus X1A used, as my introduction to the projector world, and for the price I paid was very pleased with what I got. I used this projector on a 110" bedsheet, (definitely a budget setup) and was satisfied with viewing at night in the dark. However, daytime viewing was difficult as this was a moderately lit room and the projector's light output seemed pretty low. Setup was...” --coastercard
“I recently purchased a house with a basement theater that came with a Sony VPL-HS20. Considering it came with the house, I was more than happy to take it. Features: The VPL-HS20 is a 768p projector that takes a 720p input signal natively. As hard as I try, I can not get the thing to take a 1:1 pixel mapping from my PC attached via HDMI or DVI. There is always around 5% cut off from each side...” --varkeast
“I have had this projector for seven or eight years. Originally I bought this for auditorium presentations of video productions I have filmed. As a professional videographer that shoots primarily stage productions I present the final video in an auditorium filled with performers and instructors at least twice a year. Originally I was hauling a 32 inch CRT television to the auditorium and...” --craftech
“NOTE: This review is comparing the LG to other projectors released in 2010. Obviously there are better options available today if you are buying new. When this projector was released in 2010, it was one of the best budget options for owners with large screens or lit media rooms. It is a 3 chip LCoS capable of 900 lumens in 'best' mode and 1400 lumens in 'bright' mode after calibration (these...” --Greg_R
“This was my first projector. At that time I was considering getting a 50" plasma TV, but a friend who already owned a 720p projector "convinced me" (a simple demonstration at his place was enough) to forget about 50" screens when it comes to home cinema! I must admit, this is one of my very few purchases based solely on reviews, as I was not able to find this model anywhere on display. All the...” --giorginho
“I've had this unit for proably 8 years and am on my 2nd lamp -> the first actually just lost brightness after about 6,000 hours. Everything I've wanted in a projector.” --septemous
“I bought this projector 4 years ago. I am crazy when it comes to projector purchases, I used business projectors for movies at home since 1998 and eventually bought an LG projector which I loved, but the insides essentially melted when I installed its second bulb from the heat. The Sharp replaced that one, and the biggest things that drew me to Sharp was that they use lenses for keystone...” --rdcollns
“Features: Built in Digital Tuner which is great for watching regular TV without the need of an additional set top box 20000 hour led bulb that will probably outlast the projector. DNLA capable Quick boot enables the projector to boot up in around 10 seconds USB port for native file play back such as mp3, DivX, mp4 and photo playback Smart TV(NetCast) features(facebook,twitter,Vudu,...” --digitalDee
“I purchased my Mitsubishi LVP-HC5000 including a 120" powered Elite screen for $1853 in July 2008. It was a Japanese version that someone had purchased and then been dissuaded from keeping due to the "For use in Japan only" notice on the box. Japanese voltages and US voltages are close enough that I wasn't concerned about the projector power supply. I installed it using a ceiling mount...” --yahara
“I bought this projector right after they came out. At the time I was looking at a 31" HDTV for 700, 800 dollars. When the Mitsubishi’s went on sale for 700 I couldn't resist, screen size was now not an issue. My theater is my living room so brightness was a concern. At 15' the 1500 lumens from the HD1000 still won’t cut through a sunny July morning but, pull the curtains and it has plenty of...” --The Hound
