I'm looking to upgrade my nearly six year old Davis DLS8 to something HD. I want the better colors and brighter image of more modern projectors but I'm not willing to give up smoother pans of 72 hz. I am fan of the image on DLP projectors and looking to stick with one. Which projectors will do 72 hz?

Is there a particular reason you're looking for 72hz rather than 48hz? I can tell you that the Mitsubishi HC3000U will sync to 48hz.

Many old-school CRTs can handle the order.

Josh,


Well I would think 48hz would spin the color wheel slower and create more artifacts while 72hz would spin the color wheel faster. Or am I off on that?

Reading the stuff about 4x vs 5x, such as the case of the HC3100, it appears that a lower color wheel speed would be preferred for a DLP solution, so long as it's not so slow that your specific sensitivity to rainbows is not agitated. That, and the wheel whine will be a lot lower if a lower grade product. Besides, the source material is 24Hz progressive, so 72Hz should provide zero benefit over 48Hz.

I suppose so, it's just what I was used to with my other setup.
