To Jack28HT and peace228,

Wow, Home Theatre Projector veterans here.... an AE200 and an AE300 owner.  Welcome to the discussion.  I believe that your projectors have served you well...2.5k hours is very impressive indeed.

But 3 years or more has passed and the world of projectors have improved 10 fold since.  If funds are not an issue, then I would advice that you go straight for a 1080p projector.  Full HD is right around the corner and if I were to purchase one today, I would go for 1080p... prolly the JVC RS1 thumbup.gif

I have the Epson TW700 which I bought more than 2 months ago.  Seems like ages ago now.  Currently clocked over 50 hours with no major complains.  Picture is sharp as a needle, enough lumens to view in the afternoon with bright sunlight filtering in from the outside.  Colours so amazing that it pops out of the screen... or wall in my case.  With Blacks unheard of for LCD at this price.

The Epson TW700 uses the D5 organic LCD panel, but there has not been any report of burn in on this panel.  Incidently Panny also uses the same panel but it has encountered many problems compared to the Epson.  This is probably due to an inherent design flaw with the Panny. 

The only gripe I have with my Epson TW700 is that its a 720p projector and as such SDE is visible but only when I go looking for it.  However if the movie is exciting and I am fully immersed in the storyline, I dun notice it at all.

Wahhhh... Rich man spotted... Just got TW700 now wanna go 1080p already. Kekekek...

I just sent in my Panny AX100. Hmmm...
They say it will take some time. I think they wanna fix it again but I knowthey have no slution to it.

So... I am back to 29" ASTRO for now.

Unless we hve a lot of money to spare... currently, 720p is more than enough...
Astro <-- 480p
DVD <-- 480p but luckily, can upscale to 720p...

So... unless HD Astro comes in and HD DVD and BR disc got ahem ahem... no point going so far until 1080p...

UNLESSS tongue.gif.... UNLESS tongue.gif panny offer me at low low price tongue.gif

correct me if wrong.

It depends on how you do it... but HD source into a non HD definitely no difference.

But if you use upscaling... example normal DVD use HDMI DVD player, you will get upscaled quality.

Another one is, analog signals and digital signals will have difference in quality as well. Analog signals will get all the noise especially if you screen is big, you will see the difference. Also, if your analog cable is long... Where as for digital, all the way is silky smooth.

Brader... I need help.

Panny just called up and told me that they will give credit note to the dealer and ask me what I want to buy. As in what other projector I want buy.
Including other brand as they know other than AE1000, there is not much of choice.

Hmmm...

So, now, most probably I'd tell him, I want TW700. Can I know what price you bought?

On de AE1000 1080p PJ , IMO , if you are going HD source(BR or HD DVD) then go for it, if not - even upscaled SDVD ... well to me not worth it la - just to watch S DVD's...
BTW Pls PM me de price dat they offer you ... who knows maybe I can help you sell at a profit....

KAKAKA... thats the thing.
If I upgrade to AE1000, I'll be spending thousands more as I will be getting at least BR or HDDVD player. Then, I'll be buying many many HD discs and such...
At the end, I end up spending more.

Let me weigh in on this....

I mentioned earlier that if I am buying a projector today, I would go for a 1080p resolution projector.  If anything, just to guard against the investment of the initial outlay.  1080p is very quickly becoming the default.  And the beauty of it is that you do not have to plonk another handful of dosh for HD or BR just yet.  You can still wait another 6 months to a year then decide what to do on that front.  But all the time you are safe in the knowledge that your projector is ready to go 1080.  If you get 720p projector then if 6 months down the line you want to go HD/BR.... the initial outlay for the 720p projector is most probably sunk, plus you have another outlay to get a 1080p projector.  Granted you may be able to get a 1080p at today's 720p prices... but there is no guarantee.

So in the end you may be paying more.  That said, I am not sure if I would choose the Panny... go shop around.  Not sure what your dealer carries....  Note that all 1080p do not have the high lumen output compared to the current crop of 720p.

TW700 is the same as the 810.
*
Yeah... spent much time in AVS last night/this morning. Now, eyes are panda eyes.
I think the 810 is quite reliable. Heard of any problem? I've been reading the whole thread on 810 until like page 3x... the only problem I heard was on the iris motor noise, slight convergence.

Jason... you in town? Can I drop over?

Why not go to your dealer and do a shootout comparison with few models, instead of doing all that research? What choices of projectors do they have?

Maybe can shootout the Epson, Panny, Infocus, Benq, etc... will be fun to see.

Bad luck on the panny experience.

If Panny dealer, why are you considering Epson?

When u only got "No" choice... where else can you go?
Ask them to get you a multimedia projector?

What is happening now is the dealer will try to use his best Jalan to make back his profit. So, he might get from another dealer at lower price and then try to sell to me.
