I know some people might get a little tired of these types of threads, but I've done about as much individual research on these two projectors as I can do. I am really hoping that someone who has seen both projectors perform in person could shine a little light on my questions below.
So my real questions are:
- How much better are the JVC's blacks in reality?
- How much brighter is the Epson?
- Is the difference in 3d performance really as high as I've been led to believe, with the Epson being better?
- Does the Epson have better motion performance? If so, is this only using modes that give the "soap opera" effect?
A few notes about me:
- I currently have a JVC RS 40
- I have a completely light controlled theater room
- I have a 106" screen (16:9) and the projector will be ceiling mounted ~13 feet away
I'm not in a huge rush to upgrade, as I just recently acquired the RS40, but I do wonder if maybe I would enjoy the greater brightness of the Epson. Also, while it's definitely not all about 3d performance, I do enjoy watching the occasional 3d movie, so the improved performance there intrigues me as well.
