This TW4000 same as the 6500UB in US right? I wonder what is the price in Malaysia?
Anyway, look at these 2 screenshots just inviting comments from everyone which do you feel is better? ![]() This post has been edited by jchong: Jun 22 2009, 01:55 PM |

Funny I just auditioned the epson 3000 and 4000 on Saturday in KEC singapore. the 3000 is going for SGD 3300 and the 4000 is going for SGD 4500. Tested both and it was day and night difference especially in contrast and colour. The 4000 is also a tad sharper possible because of its wider contrast. I might consider going down to singapore again to pick it up. I have another option which is the Sony HW10 which is going for SGD 3800. The sony is better then the Epson 3000 but I think it loses out a bit to the 4000.

Just called up Epson Malaysia. The TW4000 is not in Malaysia yet and the official price unknown at the moment.

Awaiting your review of the product yeah, post pic for us to see when you get it ? |

I see that most of you are using the biggest size your room can take. But most of you probably have forgotten about the sweet spot for placing your front speakers. If the screen is too wide, then the speakers will probably be too wide, so at what distance are you sitting in a room with only 15" long and 12" wide?

Too wide a screen can affect speaker placement. I think optimal is between 22-25 degrees per side.Added on July 21, 2009, 9:35 am QUOTE(rthj @ Jul 20 2009, 11:10 PM) Tried that before and it compressed the soundstage, at least for me. I found that pointing straight worked best for me.This post has been edited by jchong: Jul 21 2009, 09:35 AM |

I've put 1 piece at the first reflection point to test (haven't stuck it yet). How high should I place it?

I had 120" screen with 17' distance away and now I'm doing ~150" with 17' watching distance for my new HT. Come to think of it, may be too big
