Hi, I have a Epson 3200 and I am thinking of upgrading. It is in a very small dedicated room (3x3) which is light controlled. I got the Epson second hand to see if it would get used which it does so I am now thinking of looking for something that is an upgrade. I find a screen size of 80 inches is right for movies so any new projector would need to have a throw of 1.4 or better. The projector is on a shelf on back wall so I can probably live without the lens shift of the Epson. I would consider spending about £1000 second hand or up to 1500 for something new with a 5 year warranty. Maybe look for something when the new models come out.
The size of the Epson image is fun but i would like to get a little closer to the pq that I get on my Plasma.
I have demo an Epson 6100 at Richer sounds but it didn't look much better than my current projector although the room was not properly light controlled. I also tried there other projector which was a Panosonic PTAT6000E which was better but certainly didn't blow me away and at £2300 was more than I am willing to spend. I would like to demo more projectors but work commitment don't allow me much time to travel at the weekend at the moment so I a would welcome any opinions on what may suit me.
