HI, I'm a newbie and may get pounced on for not doing my homework, but here goes. I'm about to take the plunge and purchase a projector for my HT.. I have narrowed it down to a couple of units that are well in my price range. I have found a Barco Graphics800 and a Sony VPH-1251Q. Both roughly the same price. Anyone care to help get me off the fence and suggest one over the other? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Dave

They're very equivalent projectors, I think the Barco may be a hair brighter but I don't know for sure.

yes Pauls right barco is a little brighter

its now matter of selecting the one with the least wear

Great to hear. I was already leaning toward the Barco but thought it would be a good idea to ask some experts. As I said, both are well within my budget and I have tried to find info on both units in time to make my decision. The Sony has a little less hours on it - but unfortunately has less background information as well.

Thanks Again
