I am not technophile but I do have a refurbished Panasonic DLP front view projector. Itss about 15 years old and its finally had some blue green lens burn so I am looking to replace it.
Any other forum goers have a projector they use for their home theater?
If so what is your make and model and tell me about it.
I am thinking about the $1000 Epson 2030 (2d/3d) or maybe pony up for the Epson 3020(2d/3d) at $1500. although the BenQ 1070 is cheaper and has more lumens and about the same contrast as the 2030 Epson.
I am worried about fps because I want to play online console games with it but I do like the fact that these two Epson have long lamp lives before replacement (up to 5000 hrs on eco mode)
Replacement lamps are only $100 on the 2030 but about $250 for the 3020.
but the contrast and lumens are a lot higher on the 3020.
I will most likely be viewing and playing at night so ambient light is a non issue.
