Its good to hear that people are beginning to counter-reply in positive manner.

Why do u say its dwindling? Becoz u see less posting in lyn? I think lyn attracts a different kind of crowd that's why.
As htkaki put it, pj requires a different setup that the posters here r not willing to do. Its a different crowd.

Last time fewer people had projector. Now they might already bought. So now there are less inquiries.

i want projector but no money...how?

Nothing wrong in opening a thread like this and this does not prove that TS is not hardworking. Perhaps he wanted to surver the market before he can purchase it.

Then I think you should have worded your question differently.

The projector market will always be much smaller compared to TVs. I think some of the reasons have already been explained above.

If you want a projector, then be clear about its advantages and disadvantages. If you wanna know if spare parts are hard to get, ask about that. Instead you ask about if projector not suitable for HT?

hmpp....i think its dariofoo who is shooting you ....

anyway, if you have the space, nothing beats a projector. I have a panny AX100 project. Although its only a 720p, but the pleasure that you are getting from a projector is totally different from any LCD or plasma. With the right lighting and screen, the image is spectacular.

For me, my KL condo due to space constraint, i choose an LCD over a projector but if you have a dedicated HT room with the right condition for projector then nothing beats a full size projector image.

*remember to put aside your budget for a good screen.

To me..

It is.. considerin blck lvls, brightness/contrast n lcos tech [dila, if u r gonna be anal..] wif 'dust-no-issue' n no rbe's.. ya, I d say tis is my dream PJ [I m a poor man .. u see ]

Of cos its not for everybdy.. n proj issues r stil ther in bulb life/ambient lite..

Hope this kills the myth that Plasma is on the way out and all those 'obsolete' tech rubbish once and for all. As far as PQ is concern, Plasma is still top dog.

"Plasma televisions have seen a major decrease in pricing. The price difference and aggressive LCD TV marketing has given the illusion that plasma televisions are on their way out. But that's not true. Plasma televisions are known for their true-to- life picture quality and affordability over the alternatives."

Bro,

Hv u tried d 3 color wheel dlps.. they r supposed to minimize rbe to a certain extent..

I dont tink u can get any projs b-lo 4k here in bolehland.. hd 20 oso abv tat.. I tink..
I d suggest to tompang a frnd/buddy/brother who is goin to US.. Over there, a basic epson 1080p [8100/8350] lcd pj is less than USD1k..

D

Haha..

If u r goin to buy pjs based on d no of hrs, its bulb life is.. then happy huntin...

Better stay wif flat panels

And why still search for 720p?  should go all the way 1080p.

In 2008, 720p is around RM 3.5k-6k
Now after 3 years, 1080p is RM 5k-20k
720p is still > RM 3k

agreed. im also intrested to buy a projector. I just visited the projectorreviews dot com website.. just looking for the best 1080p project with my budget.. so far the mitsubitshi HC3800 is the best under $1500..

gogo2, visualfoley,
its a step with no return :-), once u adjust urself to the big screen u will nv go back, and personally for the cheap 1080p projector, my friend got a Benq W1000, i thought for the kind of pricing, its very nice and its brightness can combat some ambience light if u plan to use it in the living room :-)

Definitely the price in Malaysia is not the same. It will be higher than what you see on the Net.

Also bear in mind the price you see online, u must add shipping. And remember there is no local warranty so if anything goes wrong then the repair will be more costly.

My friend bought it from ebay through my account, including the shipping charge total around RM3700.

Cheers

HT proj is considered luxury item in Mal so its all expensive stuf..

U cant test any pj in Pg.. u can ordr d models u wan thru d local comp shops.. I got my epson tat way..

US is d place to buy.. but most online sellers dont ship here directly..
