Ended up with a horribly nasty taste of an LED TV I bought and it looks like I am not going to reach any compromises in that market. Not really sure I want to go back to plasma, so I thought I would check out the projector scene.
The room I watch/play media in is almost always dark (walkout basement) and dark movies/shows/games would always show the horrible flashlighting on my led tv. Done. My biggest concern is that my viewing space is too small for something like this.
Question is, is a projector the way to go in these types of setups? I scanned posts here and most people are either playing them directly onto a wall or using them in very large rooms. Being in the basement, my usable viewing area is about 6' up and ~8' wide. I do game, want 3D and my wall is a light beige color. Will I still need a screen? I think I want what everyone wants. A big viewing zone, dark blacks, quick response and great color.
My seating arrangement is about 10-15' from the wall.
That being said, I THINK the BenQ w0170 or the Optoma 141x may be the right choice for me... Can anyone set me on the right path? I don't really mind spending up to $1,800 on a setup, as that's what I bought my now returned TV for.
