"great little low cost projector"
Pros: low cost replacement lamp $184
Cons: so so line doubler
Summary: exellent hd home theater from hd cable component outs, and no screen door at 70in 16-9. vibrant color and plenty of brightness in normal lamp mode for class rooms. whisper mode is good for home lighting conditions. line doubler needs clean signal and generates lots of motion artifacts . got projector to replace x1 because of rainbow head aches loved x1 contrast and line doubler,but was surprised when had them hooked side by side showing the video my friends and they picked the hatachi cp rs55 over my newly lamped x1. i paid $427 with free shipping on ebay for new dukane labled cp rs55 ,so im happy but if had to pay the regular $700 for this hatachi i would opt for the x1 but for rainbow problemsUpdated
almost 1000 hrs no problems , flawless performance was able to adjust gama up and get great color reproduction and balanced. love the hd picture from comcast outs, made break out cable for free from old monitor cable its super easy. placement is a pain without zoom its the feature i miss most , have car air fiter sealed around bottom of the unit so the filter only needs cleaned every 500 hrs ,had to tape over led warning light that wants me to change filter, it only shuts off after filter door has been accessed. real happy with it. use it all the time with out the worry of replacement lamp costing big bucks . had lot of projectors over the years and put out way to much on lamps that blew way early and cost $450 this is a projector for the working man .my X-1 died with color wheel problems it had 4200 hrs and got moved around alot went to parties to game etc. went through 3 lamps did not get the lamp life i expected but it took lots of abuseUpdated
very depenable, bright, sold it for $350 with 1800 hrs second lamp , only quirk is resetting filter time takes holding the reset buttton sometimes for over 10 seconds this little projector was for mostly video games and it had very stable picture in fast moving video . just got a optoma hd70 and it really falls short with games on the PS2 compared to the stable picture or the hitachi.Updated
