Now that I've finished my install, I'm starting to think of getting a projector.
I know almost nothing about them so need some advice.
What I do know is that it must be able to project a 16:9 image up to 285cm x 160cm (3.26 diagonal) from a throw distance of approximately 5.2m.
It must be HD (preferably true HD as in 1920 x 1080) and be able to cope with a very light room.
Ideally it will be fairly compact and light as it will be ceiling mounted and not too noisy as it will be just above and behind the viewing position.
It will be used initally with a Pioneer 868 DVD player and in the near future (probably) a Pioneer 969.
So based on those requirements, what should I be looking at?
Or is it better to wait a few more weeks/months as more HD PJs come onto the market?
TIA
