Hi everyone,
BenQ refurb HT1075 for $729.99
placed 9' from a used
Elite Screens Spectrum AT Electric100H-A1080P2 for $175
and viewed from ~6.5'.
First viewing was last night.
I am having several issues with this setup.
First issue is that I see rainbows everywhere. Is there something I can do to reduce them?
Second issue is strong moire pattern on white/ish scenes/patches. Is there something I can do to reduce it?
Third issue is crawly-looking noise all over the image. Reduce?
The rainbows are distracting and the moire spoils detail on bright scenes plus the crawling noise makes it look like shifting sand.
The color looks great though.
To get the same apparent image size for the seating distance without retractable AT I am looking at 130" picture on the wall and then I have to swap front towers with wide bookshelves and manually remove the LCD every time I turn on the projector. Plus it probably needs to be AT anyway because I am using a bedspread on the wall for absorption to reduce strong reflections between front and rear wall.
Also the stove is only 10' from the left edge of the screen plus I keep the windows wide open at least 6 months out of the year in this hot third floor apartment so I expect greasy dusty buildup unless I cover the screen when not in use.
Any helpful suggestions appreciated.
