It uses Epson proprietary RF glasses that are supposed to be some of the most comfortable and brightest yet. Can't wait to try it!

Let me know. It's on the short list already

Will do. It was between that and the Panny 8000 for me, but this one won.

Whos does?

Probably. He obviously didn't go through the thread cause mine seems bigger (that's what she said)

 

[Michael Crawford]

Yes, the 65" panny is for the redecorated living room. As I mentioned earlier, the HT is a 120" screen. I'm a big believer in the biggest screen that works for the size of the room.

Great lighting MikeLofty!

 

[jimjimmyjones85]

That's what I have !

What kind of screen are you using Mike?

 

[Gates70]

120" ? That's all ? You guys are thinking too small

 

[jimjimmyjones85]

Proportionate to the room my brother !

 

[Michael Crawford]

I'm using a Carada. Very happy with the quality for the price.

They make a pretty cool masking system too (including one that's a constant image height design) that might be a nice upgrade someday.

I know, I was just making fun of a particular post earlier in the thread

Nice screen Michael!

 

[Michael Crawford]

Well, I don't have the masking system. I'd like to, but it's hard to spend 3k on something that's really just a cool feature - I can live with the gray bars.

I am with you. I would rather put the money into the projector.

What are you thoughts on Sony's 4k projector?

 

[Michael Crawford]

My first thoughts were HOLY CRAP. JVC's 'fake' 4K is more on my radar since the price is much more reasonable. Of course, it's also not true 4k.

There will be much debate over whether you can actually see the difference - of course, this is the same argument we've heard since the first progressive scan dvd player came out. Regardless, it will have a huge effect on home 3D, giving us enough resolution to actually make the technology work great, maybe even better than it is in theaters right now.

Breaks in technology are always poo pooed at first because people only think of it in terms of current use. Yea, 4k isn't going to mean a whole lot for a 47" screen. But it opens up doors for things we haven't been able to do before, and some we haven't even thought of yet
