Greetings all.
Just a heads up. For the next roughly 3 days, I won’t be checking the blogs, and responding, sorry, but will try to catch up on the weekend.
In the meantime, I have just finished working on one of two videos. The first one is now live on YouTube.
Basically it’s a 2+ minute teaser. It’s a very short summary (humorous I hope) of our not long ago, Mitsubishi HC3800 review, a projector I really like a lot. Click here: The YouTube Mitsubishi HC3800 video summary of the full HC3800 projector review, is live. Read the rest of this entry »

Greetings everyone!
OK, I know a lot of folks have been waiting quite a while for this especially with the first online review of the PT-AE4000 published what is now several weeks ago. And since I’m getting a whole ton of Panasonic PT-AE4000 vs. Epson UB questions by email, I’ll give you all my latest thoughts on that contest, throughout this blog.
As is usual, this is a “First Look” and not the full projector review. I’ve been working with the PT-AE4000 projector since Read the rest of this entry »

UPDATE: The JVC DLA-RS25 review has been posted!
Greetings people!
Ok, as usual, I’m a bit behind the curve. I’m in the midst of the competitors page for the Epson review, and have some additional images showing the Epson tackling a pretty decent amount of ambient light, for sports viewing. Read the rest of this entry »

Hi folks, Well, I had intended to get the Epson review up for you all by about 7 or 8pm here on the west coast, but, just too much to do, to complete it, so finally, it made it live just after midnight. Enjoy.
As usual, this is first pass, there may be some “artifacts” left over from the review I used as a template, Read the rest of this entry »

UPDATE: The Epson Pro Cinema 9500UB and JVC DLA-RS25 projector reviews have been posted!
OK everyone, this is just a quick heads up, As usual it’s crunch time in the projector review world as most new home theater projectors tend to ship each year, between September and January.
It’s getting exciting. Here’s what’s up:
Although I barely got started on my review of the new Optoma HD8600, I’m going to delay that one a bit, and finish it as I can.
The Epson Pro Cinema 9500UB has arrived, and it top priority. The full Epson projector review should post Read the rest of this entry »

UPDATE: The Epson Home Cinema 8500UB and Pro Cinema 9500UB projector review has been posted.
Greetings all,
The Epson Pro Cinema 9500UB - should be impressive!
No, this isn’t a first look blog. Just a quick announcement, to let you all know that I just received, last night, a Pro Cinema 9500UB projector - an engineering sample, fresh from Japan.
It came in yesterday afternoon. I got Mike to do a quick “rush job”, picking up the projector, calibrating it and getting it back to me later in the evening. I’m just about to fire it up for the first time. I took off last night to go hear Bob Dylan (and his band) perform in a nice, relatively small venue in LA (the Palladium for you locals). Awesome concert, btw! I would highly recommend catching him. Great music, great musicians (including Charlie Sexton on guitar). Don’t miss.
But, back to the Epson home theater projectors. I expect the full review to post on Read the rest of this entry »

UPDATE: The Epson Home Cinema 8100 projector review has been posted.
Greetings all!
OK, this is probably a bit premature - even for a first look, but, hey, I’ve received a fair number of emails telling me: HURRY! I need to know about the Home Cinema 8100, asap!
So, let’s start at the beginning. The Epson Home Cinema 8100 projector is basically an upgraded version of the Home Cinema 6100.
The biggest news is price. The Epson Home Cinema 8100 starts out with a MAP (minimum advertised price) Read the rest of this entry »

Greetings,
OK, getting an early look at the new InFocus ScreenPlay 8602 was much fun. Before I get started, a quick note. The Mitsubishi HC3800 home theater projector review will publish early this evening: Monday Sept. 28th, 2009. In addition, I’ll publish my First Look blog on the Epson Home Cinema 8100 sometime tomorrow afternoon, if not sooner. OK, back to the new InFocus 8602 projector:

It was, however an early engineering sample. In this particular case I didn’t feel we had enough control of the unit to do a full review, but it has been an educational, and encouraging experience. Read the rest of this entry »

UPDATE: The BenQ W6000 and Mitsubishi HC3800 projector reviews have been posted.
Greetings!
OK, here’s the lastest. Lots of new home theater projectors to review, the next couple of months!
BenQ W6000: Almost done! While I still may post this weekend, the review will not be fully finished. To properly finish the W6000 (an otherwise excellent projector, but with a dynamic iris that definitely can stand some reworking). I’m waiting for some real feedback from BenQ (hopefully Monday, they tell me). Read the rest of this entry »
