The new contrast miracle for £579 incl delivery

Thanks Doctor - is the picture quality the same across 75-300...or do you have to forgoe pic quality for the larger sizes.

Basically I'm looking for a 100inch diagonal picture :rolleyes:
 
What have you guys done to me....my wife is going to kill me...damn we can holiday next year!

Right I'm a noob when it comes to projectors - never had one, but sounds like quite a few on this thread know what they are talking about and thats that this is a good deal :)

So should I buy this projector and just work everything out - my viewing wall is 10ft away from my seating position - does anyone know what size image I can get?

Also are screens expensive?

PLEASE HELP - DON'T WANT TO MISS OUT ON THE DEAL :lease:

PS - Can I just plug DVD players etc. into it as I would with a tv?

You will have to site the projector low down on a coffee table in front of your seating postion or up high close to the ceiling as this projector does not have a lens shift.

I have a 720p version of this - presumably from HDTV not BR/HDDVD - which is a pretty good encoding so I'll try to get some shots up with the XV-Z3000 if/when I receive it. VLC OSX>Mac Mini>DVI-D to HDMI>XV-Z3000 so should be cool (well it was on the W100 anyway). I don't have a screen tho yet but my wall is certainly doing a top job! I'll try some other films too. I also have a trailer of the next Pixar film (Wall-E) in 480p, 720p and 1080p so I'll be able to do a comparison with them too. May need to brush up on my photography skills!

I feel a XV-Z3000 Owners Thread coming on...
 
Thanks Doc, think I'll take the plunge

Some how I dont think you'll be dissapointed. I think you should get a 100" diagnal from around 3m (10ft) :)

I feel a XV-Z3000 Owners Thread coming on...

I'm getting the same tingleing feeling, though tit would be better just to change the name to of this thread to that.

Right.

I sent, no, I replied to an email from Laskys stating that my projector had been shipped, but ended up with a failer daemon notice?

Just sent one directly through the site and to their email address. I'll keep you posted as to weather I get a reply as their email address may be faulty.

Hi, Nero0410, I have no idea why the pictures do not appear. I think there is a problem with forum settings(?) I have sent an e-mail to one of the moderator but no luck so far.:rolleyes:

You didn't e-mail me!

I've fixed one of the pictures in your post above as an example. There's nothing wrong with the forum, you have an extra "http://" in all your IMG links.

Having said all that, too many embedded images ruin the thread/page layout & are a killer for anyone on dialup. With links, there's no need to resize & those interested can easily click to view. Ergo, the odd embedded pic (not too big ;)) with links are good :smashin:; loads of oversized embedded pictures in a thread are bad :thumbsdow.

:smoke:
 
Whats the cheapest place to buy this?

I can't find it at anything close to £579
 
Tempting. But i'm not sure if i can commit as i don't know if i suffer from the rainbow effect.

Is this massive reduction not offered on other sites then?
and is it not likely to last?

There's a post in this thread which points to a £699 price from both Comet and Woolworths online stores.

Search in thread for Woolworths and you'll find it.
 
I ordered one late last night through Laskys (22:15) and the order has been accepted and processed this afternoon. :clap:

This will be my first PJ and hopefully a nice introduction into the world of PJ ownership. :thumbsup:
 
Mine is on the way too..

Thanks again

:)
 
Mine too, showing dispatched. Id like to know where its been dispatched to as its not due while saturday, id would be willing to go pick it up if its at a local depot.
 
To all of you dealing with Laskys for the first time---:)

I have used Laskys before for buying a Philips DVD player. Within 2 days of ordering they rang me up saying that stock is due and you are going to get it 2 days after the scheduled date. And i got it on time...

It was good to see a customer service representative calling up to notify the delay...... The DVD player was packed well.

I am a satisfied Laskys customer.....

Hope that helps:thumbsup: but I cannot help you in the anxiety all of you are going thorugh...:D

Cyberheater and some others will be the first to get their hands on it i suppose...
 
Ordered mine today, hope it will be here on Saturday, only had 2 left... great buy ....:thumbsup:
