    Hi guys. Anyone want to venture how many posts this thread will go? 150? 200?

    Say TtT, I've got a friend who replaced his Barco projector with a new Sony HD unit (not sure what model) for his 100" screen. Very nice. How are the new Sony units?

    Kex,
    I have only really looked at the higher priced models, I have not seen anything else yet except Sony new Pearl projector. That one is reasonably priced, and if he is not a performance freak like I am, it will probably do for him just fine.

    Right now I am doing research into 4k projectors for my post production studio that will be opening up later this year for business. The studio is being built as we speak! I am really excited, as it has been about 4 years since I had to close my other studio because it needed millions of dollars in earthquake retrofitting.

    I think Sony's Pearl, and Dark Pear SXRD projectors are really nice. The only problem I have with them, and what keeps me from buying one is that I can see the motion blur on digital projectors. I can also see that they do not do black, or that their color gamut in HD is not correct. When they correct these problems, I will jump in and trade my G-90 and my custom RPTV in for it. JVC has a projector that comes close in black levels, but the motion blur and color issues are still a problem.

    Yours is a more critical eye than mine. Thanks.
