Holy crap this is harder than buying a car! I'm sure this comes up all the time...
My set up so far is as follows:
Onkyo NR555
Chromecast W/GTV
Sapphire 92" white screen (To be purchased)
Room:
Throw distance 3-4.5m
White everything...
Can be light controlled but somewhat reduced daylight viewing would be nice for the kids.
So most of my media is stored on a HTPC. A lot being 4K with ATMOS soundtracks.
There's no way I can afford a decent 4k unit, even pixel shift is a stretch, so I've been looking at the higher end 1080p projectors.
So it's come down to the following:
Optoma HD29he
or
JVC X35
Sony HW50ES
They're all hitting around the £600 mark. The Optoma is brighter and can supposedly accept and downsample 4k media, but I imagine has worse contrast and blacks the other two.
Any input would be highly appreciated.
