CNET editors' buying advice
We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Home Theater Projectors. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of home theater projector.
Understanding Front-projection TVs - DLP
DLP-based projectors come in all prices, resolutions, and picture qualities, so it's tougher than usual to generalize about them. That won't stop us from saying, in general, that DLP projectors can produce a brighter image than their LCD counterparts, and their black-level performance is also usually slightly better. DLPs suffer from the same rainbow effect as their rear-projection brethren, although very expensive three-chip models do not.
Historically, 720p resolution DLP units have cost significantly more than the LCD competition, but in the last year, a slew of more affordable 720p DLP projectors have begun to hit the market. They still cost a bit more than the LCDs and usually don't offer features such as lens shift, but nonetheless, they're destined to seriously increase the popularity of HDTV-resolution DLP models. At the other end of the spectrum, true 1080p resolution DLP projectors are available, such as the Marantz pictured above, that cost a bundle and perform extremely well. The extra resolution of 1080p is especially evident when an image is blown up to projector size.
Upside: | Downside: | Forecast: |
Can get extremely bright; decent uniformity; generally better black-level performance than LCD. | More expensive than similar-resolution LCD models; rainbow effect. | Already the most popular technology for home-theater projection, new less-expensive 720p versions will make DLP even more desirable. |
