I love the look of DLP projectors and was wondering if there are any DLP projectors out there that provide a substantial boost in image quality over the w1070. Don't get me wrong, I like how the w1070 looks, but I've been itching for an upgrade lol. Thanks!
That's such a good question, and the answer seems to be 'not really'. The W7000 may be a bit of an upgrade, but there isn't a model which really performs as a significant upgrade while still being DLP and reasonably priced. Arguments for some models in the $3,000+ category can certainly be made.
But, DLP has completely dropped the ball in making a competitor to the 5030 and HW40ES models out there. A long zoom, good lens shift, great blacks with FI, and great color in a 6x+ color wheel design make so much sense, but are so completely lacking from the industry it blows me away.
