Buyers Guide to Home Theater Projectors
Over the years, I have grown really attached to my home theater system.
I must say, of all the rooms in the house, my own little movie theater is the one I could not live without.
I am absolutely in love with my home theater system and, if you are anything like me, I am sure you will love yours too.
I found, when I was initially building my system, that there was so much information to absorb.
Every product out there seemed better than the next, and I found myself unsure about which to buy.
Here are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for a new home theater projector.
There are two main types of projectors on the market; DLP and LCD.
DLP stands for digital light processing.
It was invented by Texas Instruments, and utilizes a microscopic array of over 2 million mirrors.
DLP has a higher contrast than LCD, but there are some unfavorable consumer reports that note something called the "rainbow effect".
The "rainbow effect" is noticeable when looking from one side of the screen to the other, and is characterized by a sudden burst of color.
LCD stands for liquid crystal display.
These projectors have three distinct glass LCD panels inside; one for each component of the video signal (red, green, and blue).
While DLP chips reflect light, the LCD panels allow light to pass through them.
LCD projectors produce brighter images, and they are known for having excellent color saturation.
In the end, you will be hard-pressed to notice a great difference between the two types of projection systems.
When shopping for a new projector, keep your particular needs in the forefront of your thoughts.
As I mentioned above, it is really easy to lose yourself in the minutiae of each particular system.
Connectivity is a definitely something to be mindful of.
Make sure that you are able to connect all of your components, including your gaming system.
Nothing beats playing Halo in real-life size!
Contract ratio is another important factor; the higher the ratio, the better the picture will be.
The brightness of your projector is another thing to consider.
Light output is measured in ANSI (American National Standards Institute) lumens.
You will want to avoid a projector that produces anything shy of 1000 lumens.
As you are likely aware, the projection resolution is extremely important.
This refers to the number of pixels that can be displayed on the screen.
Go for something that is no less than 1024x768, as this will allow you to fully appreciate the depth and quality of HDTV.
In the end, you should buy the projector that is in line with your needs and your budget.

Plasma compared to dlp television and lcd
When you think of comparing plasma to dlp technology you should really compare the main aspect: picture quality.The contrast by definition is the measurement of black depending of the white amount. The plasma is a step ahead this time. The boast of this in the plasma technology is truly remarkable and it's possible to heard about ratios like 4000 to 1.But not all the manufactures can accomplish this level of quality and the main ration is only 1000 to 1.The dlp is a relative new technology on the market so it's not really fair to compare with plasma but some of the big manufacturers came close to the standard ration 1000:1.The clarity is the measured by the amount of lines and looking at the clean edge around the picture. So again dlp television compared to plasma is very difficult on this topic because both technologies have great reviews regarding the clarity. The plasma achieves this by conversion and processing and the dlp have made this possible using the best clean mirror technology.The...
