kenratboy Posted October 4, 2003 Author Share Posted October 4, 2003 prodj 101, I am shocked and offended you would call me a liar (or not): http://www.barco.com/digitalcinema/en/products/product.asp?gennr=765 It is real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zandern Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 I don't think you would actually hang that in your HT room. For that I would do a theater design, and build a second room in back and have the projector back there. On some very strong supports I might add.

TheEAR Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 A nice projector to match seven Krell MRA mega amps with quad Krell MRS subs in a 50*30foot room.And seven Wilson's Alexandria X2's. A very dollar store like system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minn_male42 Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 projectors project light.,.....so it has a light bulb and some lenses....what the heck makes it need to be that big....?? this size projector is designed to be installed in an auditorium....like a school, university, or large corporation... the stuff you buy for home theatre simply doesn't have the power to project an image 20 feet high by 50 feet wide from 150 feet back.....

TheEAR Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 "I bet highlander will come soon to say he have one" No he will say he has the Barco Barking Ubber Deluxe VonSchkopf Edition that weighs in at 1000lbs and costs $1000000! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenratboy Posted October 5, 2003 Author Share Posted October 5, 2003 Also, you don't worry about the image burning into the projector - you worry about the image burning into the wall BTW, the bulb life makes running the projector cost $25/hr. So, watching all three LOTR movies would cost you about $300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_highlander Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 "I bet highlander will come soon to say he have one" how did you guess, Manuel? ... actually, I am not much into projectors since I have a cheap Samsung 61" DLP projection TV...but thing is about to change...I have preordered the Samsung SP-H700A DLP projector...Matrix 2 will be glorious ...

I think for that kinda money, I'd rather have the actual orchestra come play for me than "as close to the real thing" as I can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
