Can't go wrong at this price!

by memobug , Feb 13 '03
Pros: Versatile, inexpensive entry level projector meets most home and small business needs
Cons: Limited resolution (SVGA)
CHOOSING A PROJECTOR

Buying a projector can be a difficult prospect because it's so hard to find a retailer that carries several models that can be compared. Also, new buyers may not even know specifically what is needed for their...

Want a big screen in limited space?

by jiveturkeyr1 , Feb 16 '03
Pros: Beautiful picture, Great resolution, Low price
Cons: Requires a dark room
I purchased the x-1 after realizing that my livingroom would be overtaken by the depth of most any bigscreen television. My livingroom measures 10"x16", the eighty inch diagonal picture(at around ten feet) seems perfect(kind of like sitting a few rows...

A Very Nice Projector

by ipatch , Jun 19 '04
Pros: Best big screen for the money, hands down
Cons: Occasionally distracting rainbow artifacts
I also read these reviews and bought this unit for about $800 after rebate. I also bought the DaLite Theater-Lite 80" portable screen. I can set up projector and screen in 2-3 minutes. When I am done I drop the screen and slide it behind the couch and ...

A fantastic entry-level home theater projector.

by chrisell Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Sep 16 '03
Pros: A-m-a-z-i-n-g picture quality. Many projection options. BRIGHT!
Cons: Not going to win any design awards. Generates a fair amount of heat.
We've been toying with the idea of a full-on home theater setup for ages and I thought I'd settled on a 52 inch Sony TV. My thinking was that projectors were simply too expensive and that they didn't have the resolution I needed. Well I spent some ...

Infocus X1

by tommy21962 , Aug 17 '04
Pros: Nice Picture, Easy Controls, Great price
Cons: I could "pick" at minor things but why? Watch out for the "progressive thinking" :-)
To Start, I have never owned anything like this before. I have had this unit for about 3 months now and have almost 150 hours on it already! I got it mostly for Football this season!! (Go Ravens!) But a "Movie night" has now developed and the wife ...

A great choice for a cheap home theater projector

by ambrehm , Nov 29 '03
Pros: Price, picture quality, deinterlacer, bulb life
Cons: Lower resolution, longer throw
Introduction A few years ago I decided that I wanted to upgrade from my old 26” RCA TV to something bigger, a lot bigger. That decision brought me to buying the 61” Panasonic PT-61HX40. At the time I was very impressed with the ...

Sub $1,000 DLP + 2000:1 contrast + Faroudja DCDi = No brainer

by cnagappa , Nov 24 '03
Pros: Crisp video image, vivid color and fantastic black level after tweaking the default settings.
Cons: Minor quirks by design and possible rainbows. Personal preference for non-plastic build.
Decision to buy Currently I have a 30" widescreen Samsung Digital Enhanced Definition (16:9, 480p) CRT TV with which I enjoy watching DVD movies. I was looking to upgrade to one of the new Samsung DLP rear projection HDTVs, but the price point ...

Best deal on a projector

by bawolbri , Jul 27 '04
Pros: Value, picture, versatility, menu, brightness, size.
Cons: I can not honestly think of any cons or issues I have with this projector.
I bought this projector around November 2003 and could not be happier with it. It is projected on a 7 foot by 8 foot homemade frame built from 1x3 pieces of wood and stretched muslin fabric which was primed and painted a few times with a flat white ...

The real home cinema for less than 2000$

by soldatini , Mar 11 '03
Pros: High contrast ratio for excellent sharp images
Cons: Rainbow effect
The only flaw I can point out with this videoprojector is the "Rainbow Effect" you can see with high brightness level and white bright images.
This is a common problem for cheap DLP products but it is not annoying for everybody.
I can see it...

X1 Brings Big Screen Home

by uglyboy703 , Apr 14 '04
Pros: Flexible! Handles most any TV/PC need. Love the cables, labeled and color-coded!
Cons: No DVI port, HDTV cable was $14 extra.
My 32" Magnavox TV has been on the blink for years - it has been very good to me, but at some point I expect it to die suddenly - but when, I have no Idea. So moving to the next level. I did not want to overspend. That being said, what is ...

Pros: Faroudja DCDi, 4000h lamp life, rock solid picture, quiet, front panel fan vent
Cons: 2X speed color wheel, remote, weight
I wrote about this product once, and first I thought about simply revising my review, but then I felt like the new things I wanted to say were too important and more people should read them. It is getting harder to choose an entry level projector ...

One of the best choices in television

by tfharper , Oct 27 '04
Pros: Great picture quality, small, quiet, love it
Cons: Low brightness
After trying out an older zenith projector the size of a small car, and a failed experiment with an inexpensive plasma tv, I gave the infocus x1 a try after reading a raft of positive reviews. Its exactly as good as its billing. Connecting my tivo ...

Plenty of Wow!

by patboyle , Jan 26 '05
Pros: Now the plasma and rear projection sets on display in AV showrooms look tiny.
Cons: My serious problem has been ground loop induced picture line rolling.
I had a 20" CRT on which I watched Comcast digital cable TV and VHS tapes. I watched an occasional DVD on my computer which has a 21" monitor - yes my computer screen was bigger than my TV. Both system had inexpensive but good multi speaker Cambridge ...
