Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $2250.00 from ebay

Summary:
This projector has flat out impressed me. Very sharp and detailed image on dvd playback. Colors are very rich and the black level is very good. It does good on other sources but dvd is where this unit shines. I highly recommend this projector. You can supercharge this baby by adding an anamorphic lens which I plan on doing. There will be a 33% increase in rez and a 20% increase in brightness. Combine all of this with a Vutec SilverStar screen and I will have a picture that will rival that of Loews. If you have questions my new email is TDCALONZO@HOTMAIL.COM.

Strengths:
Color,brightness,black level,sharpness and detail.

Weaknesses:
Just a tad to noisy. Need to put inside a "hushbox" which reduces this common problem.

Similar Products Used:
Infocus X1(nowhere similar)

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
