Got my Ruby yesterday thanks to my trusted dealer and friend of the forums. Thanks dealer! The box came at 10:25 am and it was hung and shooting 5th Element by 11:30. The easiest install I’ve done bar none. Did you know Bruce Willis has a nose hair problem?
My convergence is fine. No need to talk about white compression, black level, etc. It has been discussed to death elsewhere.
I merely wanted to point out that Sony has knocked one out of the park here. This thing is beautifully designed and so quiet. This is the first projector I’ve owned that does not need a hushbox. I did however make a heat trap that sucks all the hot exhaust air out of the room.
I’ve had a few projectors in the last several years – Yamaha LPX 500, Dwin TV3, JVC HD2K and now the Ruby. Given it’s specs and the amazing picture I think this one will be around for a while.
1080i is the way to go! Maybe someone can explain this to me… I’ve tried 480i from HDTivo and from DV79avi and both looked grainy and noisy. They looked like hell. 1080i out of both look stunning, especially on the DV79avi.
A friend of my son’s brought over his Xbox 360 last night. We fired up a new game called “Condemnedâ€. One of the eeriest games ever and it was awesome to see all the details that couldn’t be seen on the old TV where this Xbox 360 is normally played.
What settings are people using? I’d like to here what people are finding for optimal configs.
