projector for PS3 question

[thrak410]

The prices I'm putting my 1/4 th up against we're his $30-$50k for the room and furnishings then another $100k for the Sound System and $15k for the projector. So we agree on $30-40k range.

I think you mis-read his post.

I read it like this

Costwise the last one I dealt with was a room pre built and was fit for the devices. Seating and the equipment was in the 30-50k range.

I swear proper projectors are still something like 15k.

Sound systems for guys like plastic surgeons in Southern California are completely custom built and in the 100k neighborhood.

FWIW, I'm a Digital Projection dealer and they look freakin' amazing. http://digitalprojection.com/ I'd put their any of their 3chip DLP up against nearly anything (thats not 4K) and it would amaze you too WAYYYYyyyy better than a $3-$5k projector, but you pay for it. They're the only projection company to win an Emmy, and they have 2!

yeah, everything is black-and-white.

If you want to talk subjective, I've seen way too many double blind tests where seasoned professional viewers preferred lower end stuff to exotics.

Sorry, 30+ years of experience makes me pretty skeptical of ultra high end stuff. There was a time I owned some of it and I wanted it to be better, but it simply is not.

I spend a lot of time there drooling. I'm trying to break ground on my house next year and the theater room sits 3 ft lower than the rest of the basement so I can build up the stadium seating up to meet the rest of the basement floor.

I see a lot of talk about buying a nice projector. Don't forget about the screen as it can make a difference too.

That website pisses me off, and makes me relize how poor I am.

Theres some nice setups in there!
