    Honestly, I think that even a fool cool detect both the audio and visual differences found with HP's system using a Sony three gun projector, 100" screen and a $100k sound system.

    Will I ever have such a system? Emphatically, no. So what? Can I appreciate the differences? Heck, yes! I just don't understand those who rail at marveling at what can be done with audio/visual systems. I am quite happy with my far more modest HT system.

    This is the folly of his argument. Now expand that screen to 130", even Pix with his special coke bottle bottom glasses should be able to see fine detail.

    Meh, is railing is empty and void of experience, that is the problem. He has a bad habit of riling on things he has never experienced and truly owned.

    He ignores the fact that when you properly calibrate a projector, peak light output is of no consequence. That is his too dim argument.

    He ignores the fact that a three gun CRT projector can output three times the light that a single gun CRT can, and can do that over a screen three times the size or more.

    He ignores the fact that professional CRT monitors tracks greyscale, color accuracy, and has better blacks than any panel can achieve, and Widescreen Review thorough testing has proven this year after year. If a 36" single gun monitor can do this, can you imagine what a projector with three 9" CRT's can do?

    My mother always told me that you know a person by which well they drink out of. Pix's well is the mass market well, and I always balance his comments from that perspective.
