Looking For A Good Projector
- Thread starter nextgen1

I use the 100".
The thing that's great about this screen is that it doesn't have the tripod legs. So if I needed to get it up higher (in a room with high ceilings) I can set this on a banquet table & raise it.
It sets up in about 30 seconds.

Check around, you can find them for under $600. Da-lite is a top of the line manufacture.
You know Joker if there is anything that I have learned is if your going to buy then buy right the first time and no regrets. My feeling is this will not only do what I want it to do (music videos, Gobo's and slideshow projection) It will last well into the future. The screen and the lights and projector are already ordered and I'm telling our new years eve client about it today as well as raising our price (50 dollars) from last year.
Please make sure to post some photos and your experience with the new projector. Thanks!
I have a used projector...I don't advertise it, but will bring it if asked. I don't charge for it as i don't have a back up source if it or the bulb were to fail...So those upselling projectors and gobo's, etc...Do you have a back up?
My dream is the Optoma TX1080. Someday.....someday.....
Mostly for the backyard movies and Rock Band stuff.

Hate me now.
I bought a Mitsubishi XL30 on Ebay for $300. 3,000 lumens. A little while later another came up and the person selling it was kinda "squishy" about why it wasn't working. He said the power went out and it wouldn't come back on. I bought it for $38.00. When it arrived it had all the peripherals that I didn't get with the first one.
First one.....WORKED. I bought a bulb for the second unit....it WORKED!! So, I got 2 3,000 lumen projectors for about $350.00.
I know. I'm beautiful. BUT I'M PSYCHED!

DJ Screen
This screen is about the best bang-for-the-buck available. Unlike the Da-lite and other more expensive screens, the DJ Screen offers the flexability of front and REAR projection!! If you want to clean up the look, draping (like most hotel a/v guys use) is readily available. Most clients like the slightly "industrial" look of the screen. Also, it has multiple stretch/connect points so, you can shape it anyway you want too. One more thing...when you are done, the screen folds up into it's own bag (included) that's about 1' long X 8" wide!!
