Re: Front Projector for everyday viewing?

Hello I just bought the Infocus X1 and it provides an outstanding picture! There has been some confusion though on the COMPONET video adapter with it's price some people try to sell it for for as low as $40.00 and up to $400.00 If you go to Infocus.com you can get the adapter for $10.00 and anything else you need for it at an honest price. I would stay away from (((PLASMA TV's))) because at my CEDIA training class we talked about them and there is a (((PDP))) unit which is the brain and has a minimum of 5,000 and a maximum of 10,000 viewing hours depends on the manufacture how long you get. Once your viewing hours are up it will cost you double what you paid for the TV set brand new to re-place the (((PDP))) unit. The option is yours though! I know they look cool after we cut your wall up and mount them in nice and flush but after it runs out of it's viewing hours you will have to fix your wall and get another TV display since they will not make the same size ones again for which we cut for the first one. Also instead of a motorized screen you can consider these options as well , Manual pull down Screen or Mounted wall Screens. The reason I bring this up for you is because after a while the motor will need to be re-placed this will save you $$$ and time so you can always enjoy your projector! Da-Lite makes really nice screens check them out!

Hope this was helpful...
