Thanks - I went with the Seymour 137" AT - Very happy with the screen material - I used the split-frame option to reduce shipping size - it's "okay" and once properly hung any wrinkles on the screen disappeared. - I did have to fasten down the lower corners to prevent some warping, but that was a minor issue solved with some wood screws and washers.

I have the Epson 4010 - the cheapest and best projector I have owned in my 50 year career of projecting. Now going for the 5050, which adds HDR but not laser. I am reluctant to do laser because it would give me a guilt complex the longer I use it because of the limited laser lifespan. With a lamp projector I can use it all day and just replace the bulb as needed - typically 3 years - for $300. Epsons are the brightest, sharpest, most color correct projectors and you would be a fool to get anything over $5000. And yes of course motorized lens with 10 memory slots.

The "native contrast" rating of 4000:1 is actually with some EBL activated. The true native contrast will be half that, at most. The real draw of this projector is the brightness, the dynamic contrast, built-in DTM and the WCG with arguably at the most competitive price point on the market.

@sage11xАй бұрын
It’s still really good for a DLP but this is accurate. Laser has made for some big improvements in color/contrast in DLP ls but there are always some downsides to the tech. The influencer sphere has really embraced this thing but I’m waiting for some more ‘pro’ reviews to make a determination. Right now I’m using a BenQ HT4550i/W5000 and it’s arguably the best single chip DLP I’ve ever seen. The big problem here is the looming horizon of affordable large format displays. Projectors need to be getting more affordable but it appears they are just getting pricier. My next stop would normally be a JVC/Sony but there is no way I’m dropping $6K on a projector that isn’t any brighter or has any more color gamut coverage than my current BenQ. That 4550i is really hitting a sweet spot for price/performance right now.
@2Timothy2.15Ай бұрын
@sage11x I'd rather have 90% of DCI-P3 coverage with 40,000:1 real native contrast @ 1800 calibrated lumens and excellent lens shift than 100% of DCI-P3 coverage with 2,000:1 real native contrast @ 2500 calibrated lumens and little to no lens shift. In my thinking, it's easy to get a positive gain screen for the 1800 calibrated lumens and still have a superior black floor, contrast and all without the risk of laser speckle and RBE. Because of this, I'll personally be content spending a little more on something like the JVC NZ500 any day. Others will be more than content with the performance of the Valerion DLP at half the cost, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. I just know I'd always be subconsciously watching for laser speckle, RBE and elevated blacks if I were to have the DLP, instead of focusing all my attention on the film.
@paulc5389Ай бұрын
@@sage11x I wouldn't consider 20K affordable for a lot of people. At retail you'll probably be able to get this and a 120" screen probably for less than 5K. And this will happily go much bigger too. We definitely ain't getting 150" TVs for less than 10K anytime soon. Hopefully prices come down on the TVs but at present they're mini led which comes with its own disadvantages. By the time mico led is affordable at 120" plus.. we're talking years. And I'll be very surprised if we ever get oled that size.

Whilst it would be great if they include lens memory natively it's compatible with smart home technologies. So I don't see why you couldn't change it's zoom via IP from a decent smart remote. But if that's your use case for 2.4:1 you might want to hold off and see how the AWOL Vision Max turns out as it has native 2.4:1 support. Hopefully the technology being used here makes it into the Vision Max too.

So far what's going on here kinda reminds me of Arpara 5K headset which was getting super great reviews and everyone had ordered it until we saw crazy funding, but guess what? They didn't even deliver a single unit from Kickstarter, so I won't trust reviews blindly and as from what I heard they took some of campaign money to make more positive reviews and rest went into china for production where they actually sold them, everyone else?

Hi Kevis. I agree the specs of the max look good based on the reviews of the lower echelon models where they have looked great.. What keeps me from getting interested ( which may affect others, maybe even yourself as a fellow Epson owner) the lens is limited to a 1.5 throw. The Epson lens on the 5050 which I have goes all the way to 2.1. I believe higher multiplier lenses are harder to do with DLP hence they are less common (and usually expensive) This means with the epson I can get to 120" 16x9 from a 4.20 metre throw. No can do with the valerion. Before you get too excited I'd be getting the laser measurer out and doing a lense to screen measurement and or working out how you can bring the projector location closer if needs be.. The only way DLP will ever stomp all over the established brands territory is by making them truly placement flexible. Really that's 1.6x and above.
@paulc5389Ай бұрын
@@stevenlawrence2232 I'd argue it's throw distance range is a massive advantage. Fully zoomed it has a throw ratio of 0.9. That means you can project a 120" image from just 8 ft away, which is closer than you sit. Not only will it be much brighter because it's much closer but you won't be between it and the screen when you stand up. On Epson's new higher end projectors they charge A LOT of money for the lens that's capable of doing this. I'm confused why you want the projector to be further away?
