Heritage_Head Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 How far away do you sit? Do you feel you want more brightness? Or just pq? Might be that the projector needs to be set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heritage_Head Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 You could go bigger for sure, I sit around 12ft with 125 and feel it could be even bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappydue Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 If I were you I'd order some screen samples. Unless your screen is junk already I doubt a screen is gonna make a huge difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to have a guy I use to calibrate it , but read they are so close its not worth the cost http://hdtvbychadb.com/ Edited November 24, 2014 by A1UC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paducah Home Theater Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) Sony VPL-HW40ES I saw the Sony 55 on a cheap 106" Elite at Hi Fi Buys in Nashville, it looked nice. I can't imagine that a slightly nicer screen of the same size would be a huge difference especially if the projector is the next step down. The next room over had a $26,000 Sony 4K with a $2,700 screen. I mean, I could tell the difference, but I don't think it was the screen that was pulling the weight.
