I'm still looking for a demo of the Panasonic AE-1000, Still waiting for mediaplex to demo the Mitsubishi HC-5000. God, my search for a projector never ends

I do realise that I've read lmost every review on the 1080p projectors, but I feel better reviewing it myself in person.

The Panasonic is the cheapest here though at 15k

but we still don't know about the HC5k's price

could be cheaper

Guys any place in hong kong i can go to demo home theater projectors?

Lookin' forward to your TW-700 Review dude.

Totally cool bro. How big's your screen? Can't wait to see the screenshots.

*anticipating mode: ON

Actually at that price I'd rather have a look at the HD70 which could be had at around 5300 street price. Alas, only 8-bit and the projector's placement is limited, but it is HD-ready .

Anyone interested in Pearl vs HC5000 Shootout at mediaplex sometime this month?

Yup, But the IN72 offers everything the 4805 had, and then some - HDMI, as well as Darkchip 2. But you can't go wrong with any of them, High-def on both of them looks marvellous ( although they aren't HD, they accept 720p and 1080p[IN72] but downscales them to their native EDTV resolution ).

Pearl unit belum arrive the last 2 units people dah tapau

Well, we'll see but memang around this month

@Jacky: Yup, although their not HD Ready, If fed with Hi-def, looks awesome, my brother owns a 4805 and when he feeds it with upscaled DVD, stunning! Imagine true, true HD like HD-DVD and Blu-ray!

Of course I have, I lepak at mediaplex every week watch Pearl, Ruby, and HC5000 fed by HD-DVD and Blu-ray, 1080p somemore!

Your AX100 is not a Waja ler. It's a Lotus Elise - Might be cheap but the performance is like a Ferrari!

U should go for a darker colour like burgundy, red, navy, brown, because i think white bounces the light from the screen to the room - very irritating i guess.

IN72's DC2 is by no means old, although DC3 is here, It can still produce neat blacks and more than acceptable contrast ratio, the only problem is it's light output, but that wouldn't be a problem since 1080p isn't meant for screens larger than 96", but if u have space and a light controlled room, I'd say 100" is fine.

I don't mind having a gathering

Going to mediaplex now to see Mitsu for the first time, pearl still haven't arrived.

Mitsu you mean

It's just awesome, as much as i liked the Pearl's black levels, The Mitsubishi's Vibrant colours and sharpness was enough to make me hooked to it. When dropped to Low lamp mode, colours became more natural and black levels soared to Pearl levels . Having an awesome processor built in is just a plus. Watched Tokyo Drift HD-DVD at 1080i from HD-XA1 player and let Mitsu do the scaling with its near flawless Reon Processor. The Picture? Absolutely astounding! I can't imagine how it would look like when it's hooked to the Anthem Statement D2's built-in Gennum Processor, the best Video processor available. I was utterly satisfied and is definitely the better choice thanks to Punchier colour and unrivalled sharpness. Highly Reccomended.

Shoot out maybe next week, the Pearl is in stock but they tak nak showcase first, if showcase people tapau so quick! I wanna see how they perform, once my Anthem D2 arrives, will be showcased at Mediaplex for 2 weeks-1 month for people to see. The Mitsu is a very nice projector, most people may choose the Pearl for its unprecedented black levels, and natural filmlike image. But, due to my family's taste of much Vibrant, punchy and sharp images, the Mitsubishi is the definite choice. Like i said, at Low lamp mode blacks were almost as good if not on par with the Pearl. on the Senemax 120" 2.0 gain screen, the Mitsu performed incredibly well, even with ambient lighting on as well as the doors open. When dark, the image is marvellous!

Where'd u get the SVS sub? Whatis the dimensions of your HT? I suggest you get a screen, performance will be muh better then

Anyways, nice Oppo

The Mitsubishi HC5000 demoes in Mediaplex, yes. But, I custom ordered the Anthem Statement D2 Audio/Video Processor and Anthem Statement A2 2-channel Amp (To match with my current 5-channel Sunfire amp) from Mediaplex.

Reviews, read it and be amazed:

HTMag Review

HTHi-fi Review

My Personal favourite review from AVRev

Will have mr. Tan, Director of Mediaplex himself do the site-visit at my house on Friday

So close to getting all the items. The longest wait would be the Anthem Statement D2, at least 2 weeks

But, I'm pretty sure it's worth it. I Love the Mitsubishi HC5000!!

Will do Estimated time of HT is done: Before 31st August

Where do you live

anyway thanks bro

haha ok anyway enjoy your TW700, while your enjoying it, I still have to wait

Probably your projector, like most 480p and 720p projectors, accept 1080p but downscale it to your native resolution.

your screen? bila siap?
