Thats the beastie that I use.
Won a lot of awards, and visibly the picture seemed a lot brighter=20
and sharper than many others I looked at, at the time.

I've had it now for about 8months, and runs beautiful. I mainly use=20
it just for DVD playback and also for PS2 gaming.

My other choice was the Sony KL50, which is also a nice unit, but I=20
felt the picture quality was sub par.

Viewing angle is very good for a rear projector system.
Can't comment on the sound as it all runs through my Sony Amp.

Empiredirect.co.uk seem to knock them out at a good price, and I got=20
a 5year warranty (which I normally don't buy) for about =A3170.
Well worthwhile on a rear projector. Very expensive to repair so i'm=20
told.

I'm in Chester, so if you live this way, then feel free to contact=20
me, and you can come and view in a "proper" environment. Free
from=20
salespeople and big rooms with bad lighting.

Regards
Geraint.
