Panasonic PT-AE7000U

Projector Reviews - 12/1/2011

This annual shoot-out places the flagship Panasonic PT-AE7000 against the Epson's Home Cinema 5010 projector, two direct competitors, and no doubt two of the best selling home theater projectors on the market. Read the review »

Epson Home Cinema 5010

Projector Central - 12/1/2011

The Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 5010 is Epson's brand new 3D 1080p projector for home theater. Like the Home Cinema 8700 UB, the 5010 has impressive contrast and very high maximum lumen output. This allows the projector to fill large screens in dark rooms or effectively combat ambient light in living rooms and other shared spaces. Read the review »


Epson Home Cinema 5010

Projector Reviews - 12/1/2011

The Home Cinema 5010 receives our Hot Product Award. We can quibble about this or that , and we do, - but, just as I said about the Panasonic, the combination of performance and price looks better than any of the more expensive LCoS and DLP 3D capable projectors I've just mentioned.

Sanyo PLC-XK2600

Projector Central - 10/28/2011

Sanyo's new PLC-XK2600 is a 2,600-lumen XGA projector especially well suited for the classroom. Its LCD light engine puts out plenty of light for most situations, and it handles all inputs with the exception of digital signals. Street priced at $675, it is not the least expensive in its class, but its uncommon auto iris feature makes the PLC-XK2600's data and video quality superior to many of its competitors. A 10-watt speaker adds to the impression that this is a quality product at a reasonable price, and its 3-year warranty backs that up Read the review »


Epson MegaPlex MG-850HD

Projector Central - 10/13/2011

Home theater and home entertainment are very different beasts. Epson makes projectors for both. Their new MegaPlex MG-850HD is the latter, a home entertainment projector that's designed for family fun in the living room. Perfect for video games or movies, the MG-850 features an iPod/iPad dock as well as a USB port for easy connectivity with all of your mobile devices in addition to the standard video connections. Selling for less than $800, the MG-850HD is a great addition to any family room, game room, or other communal space. Read the review »


BenQ MX613ST

Projector Central - 10/5/2011

Short-throw projectors are terrific for eliminating shadows on images that interrupt presentations, but in many instances they fall short in terms of uniformity and clarity because of their complex lens design. Happily, the BenQ MX613ST overcomes those limitations and puts up very high quality data and video images although its throw distance is a bit longer than some competitors. It is priced aggressively, and its cost of maintenance is very low which makes it a real value for classroom and conference room use. It is bright, it has every connection you will need, and it is networkable. All in all, it is a potent package at a very reasonable price. It should be on your short list if you are looking for a short-throw projector, and it deserves our highest rating for performance and value. Read the review »


Vivitek H1081

Projector Central - 10/5/2011

The H1081 does not have a lot of bells and whistles, but it delivers the core theater experience - a bright picture, vibrant color, deep black levels and good contrast. A nearly silent fan makes the projector a joy to use in small rooms. While a 3x-speed color wheel and shorter than average lamp life are less than ideal, the H1081 is nonetheless a strong performer for home theater. Read the review »


Epson BrightLink 455WIRM

Projector Central - 10/5/2011

Paired with interactivity, the new freedom of orientation lets you turn almost any table top into an interactive table as well as turn any hard vertical surface into a substitute for an interactive whiteboard. You can even point the projector at the floor to get an interactive floor space. And thanks to the ultra short throw, you can project large images from just a few inches, which means you can interact without worrying about shadows. Read the review »


Sony VPL-HW30ES

Projector Central - 10/5/2011

Sony is coming out strong this year. Just in time for football season, they have already released the VPL-HW30ES, a 1080p SXRD 3D projector that once again raises the bar on what we can expect from a Sony 3D projector. The HW30ES builds on the successful Sony VPL-VWPRO1 from earlier this year, maintaining similar features and image quality while incorporating the 3D capability that Sony first introduced in the VPL-VW90ES. But it is not just a copycat. The HW30ES makes some improvements, chief among them being higher brightness and decreased cross-talk in 3D. There's one other thing that the HW30ES shares with the VWPRO1, and that's price. At approximately $3700, the HW30ES offers strong value for the money. Read the review »
