Infocus X1 or Epson Powerlite S1 ? Which should I buy ?

[Rgoulter]

Please can you all post your views on these 2 entry level projectors.

I have read reviews on both and both sound good.

I hope to see both of these in action tomorrow at my local home theatre dealer, but that will only be for half an hour I guess.

The only info I have that wasn't from a review was that the guy from the shop said that the epson was easier to watch for longer perios i.e. 3 hours +. Some of his customers had told him the X1 gave them sore eyes after this time.

Please help me decide which to buy.

Thanks in advance

Hi Russell

No one can really give you the direction to go for a PJ. Do some search's on various forums for background but only you can decide for yourself.

As for the X1, I have one and spent up to 5 hours at a time watching with no ill effects.

as a pointer for the X1 try.
