Attention Marantz S2 owners...
We want to see what your S2 can do head to head against the InFocus 7200. Are you up for the challenge?
There is a lot of talk (and hype) about how the S2 and 7200 are among the tops in their cateogry. Many are curious to know just how these machines stack up, and Mark Haflich and I are taking the initiative to find out for sure (at least in our not so humble opinions
.
Of course we will post a *detailed* review of the findings here in the forum following the shootout. We will also add comments to compare the HT300+ as well, which was demoed in the same room with the same sources and screen, etc, that we'll be using for this shootout.
The shootout will be held in the DC area (in Kensington, MD specifically), tenatively scheduled for the weekend of January 4th or 18th, or around there.
BUT - first things first - we need a S2 for the shootout! Mark will be kind enough to supply the 7200 and demo room, which consits of a 108" diag Firehawk with both DVD and HD sources being used in the tests.
If you have an S2 you can bring by or otherwise supply for a few hours for the shootout of the year, please post so here or PM me if you prefer.
We will be comparing these pjs in just about every category we can think of - blacks, CR, colors, overall PQ, brightness, noise, user menus, etc, etc.
If you have any specific requests for things you'd like us to be sure to compare for you (beyond the obvious things) please post so here.
This is going to be one exciting shootout!
