Help please ..
Basically, I need guidance choosing the right projector for a screen I've just purchased from the classifieds.
I currently have a calibrated Panasonic 65VT50 Plasma, but just wanted something bigger to watch sports & movies.
After a lot of research I decided to buy a Grandview Cyber 6ft 77 inch manual 16.9 projection screen.
Matte white, screen gain 1.1 - see screen dimensions below.
Grandview Cyber Manual Projection Screen
I plan to ceiling mount the 6ft projection screen in front of plasma and in between my front speakers.
Grandview screen has a 70cm black border drop.
Purchase of projection screen leaves me with a budget of £1,000 for a 1080p 3D projector, either new or second hand.
Projector will be connected to my Lumagen Radiance Video Processor, calibration to follow.
Bedroom dimensions - 4.5m x 2.4m.
Sitting distance from screen - 3.9m.
Projector lens throw distance from screen - 3.9m max or less.
I have a ceiling fan with light shade (clearance for clear lens path) 40cm down from ceiling.
Ceiling to top of plasma - 70cm.
I plan to ceiling mount projector on a height adjustable pole on back wall opposite the end wardrobe.
Please see my public profile for pics of bedroom and decor..

Would you recommend a darker wallpaper to TV wall.
Two black out roller blinds going up shortly.
Please advise, which projector would best suit my needs.
thanks
