epson emp tw20 or benq w 100

[jackobeen]

hello,
was thinking of buying the epson tw 20 as my first pj,
but have noticed in the reviews that a few people
are complaining of dead pixels with this unit.
checking out the reviews now on the benq w 100.
will be using the pj in a bar with screen size approx 80 inches wide.
any suggestions appreciated.

No Contest. The W100 will win everytime as it is DLP. However, it depends on whether you or anyone suffer from the rainbow effect. I know someone who uses a Dlp despite seeings rainbows just because the DLP is so much better than what he had before.


Also, what will you use with it? The BenQ has 2 components, 1 DVI, S Video and Composite inputs.

Home cinema projectors don't like dirty, smokey environments, plus they're mostly not very bright so need a dark room, so these models may not be suitable for use in a bar.
