RE: Projector & Screen Recommendations

["Mark Harrison" <Mark.Harrison@xxxxxxx>]

Martyn,

Well - CRT is better quality than LCD for the same price. (The main advanta= ge of LCD is portability, but for a fixed install, you're better off spendi= ng your money on image quality than portability.)

Second-hand CRT _can_ be very good value, if you either know what you're do= ing, or find a reputable dealer.

The name of Convergent AV keeps cropping up in the s/h market (http://www.convergent-av.co.uk)

Looking at what he's got in stock, for your budget, you should be able to p= ick up a projector, line doubler, and screen.

Obviously, if you don't live anywhere near Glasgow, then your choices are 1= : go there to look, 2: buy blind, 3: buy somewhere else.

If I had that budget approved, I'd probably go there, and I live in Sussex.= ..

Regards,

Mark

Hi All,

Can anybody give me some recommendations on a projector and screen?

I have a budget of approx =A32,000 (SWMBO approved amount) for both.  = I have a
Sony DAV 800 DVD system, which is currently viewed on a 29" Sony 4:3 T= V.  I
had initially wanted to buy a bigger TV (something like a rear projection Toshiba 42" jobbie), but SWMBO won't sanction that as it'll take over = the
whole front room (which is about 16ft by 12ft).  So I managed to get a=
compromise of a projector and screen on the basis that it can be hidden awa= y
when not in use (projector is to be ceiling mounted, and the screen to be retracted when not in use).

I'd welcome any suggestions!

Thanks,

Martyn
