Are
you planning for a home theater and you are utterly confused about what to look
for? Well, you can follow a few simple rules and you will get the best deal in
the market. Projectors are becoming extremely popular and increasingly
affordable. The home theater projectors have proudly made their grand entry in
conference rooms and living halls. There are different models with varied
features and 20 different brands. So, before you choose, you should spend some
amount of time for research.
When
you go to buy a projector, you will often come up with two terms. One of them
is 3LCD or Liquid Crystal Display and the other is DLP or Digital Light
Processing. These are the two technologies that are being currently used. Both
SXRD and Locos are inexpensive which makes them all the more affordable. Now
with a home theater projector, you will have the option of three color panels.
The images will be brighter. There are a multitude of tiny mirrors which will
reflect the light in order to produce the image.
As
the new home theater projector, has become more light efficient and boasts of
greater color accuracy, you will find better projection of images. Now the
images will have better contrast but less pixilation. There are some LCD TVs which
will have latticed fly screen. This can actually affect the DLP. As a result,
you will notice disorienting effects in the edges. Some new models developed by
LG and Sony have no such complaints. There are some highly advanced models
which have DLP chips for good image reproduction. The new Epson Dreamio
EMP-TW700 is known to have an enhanced LCD engine. Along with it, you will have
dual-iris optics.
When
you create the magic of a movie theater in your home, you will need more than a
TV. Some people want to buy a best projector, but they have a space constraint. For this reason, multi-use
projectors have become extremely popular. They are designed in such a manner
that they can handle simple presentations at office, and at the same time, you
will have an option of DVD movie playback. The best thing about these
projectors is that they are reasonably priced. As for the brightness of the
projectors, it will range from 1000-2000 lumens. If there is a gathering of 20
people in the room, 1500 lumen is enough to create the perfect atmosphere.
As
for the resolution of a TV, the XGA is a good choice. The image quality is
really impressive. But if you are looking for an affordable model of home
theater projector, you can opt for the SVGA. There is only one odd in choosing
this model. This model is known for its limited resolution. At times, it may
affect the image quality, if you are watching the movie in a computer. If the
contrast ratio is higher, there will be more black images. If the projector is
meant to be used for videos, there should be a higher contrast ratio. Most
multi-use home theater projectors use DLP technology as they offer higher
contrast ratios. Some of the other features which make the projector all the
more impressive, are onboard stereo speakers, the portable size, flexibility in
usability, wireless connectivity and remote control.
