 Popular Projectors:Where to Buy:Research: | |||||||
Hi All
I just bought the Pearl and couldn't be happier with it. I've had a 73" Mitsubishi rear projection 1080i for about 4 years and love it, but the Pearl blows it away. I use a 110" diagonal Stewart Filmscreens Firehawk SST, which was designed in collaboration with Sony specifically for the Pearl and use a Sunfire TGR-3 receiver hooked up with a high quality HDMI cable. With a little "tweaking", the Pearl produced superb black levels, color saturation and accuracy, contrast and sharpness. The picture just looks real, like a window to the world-I forget I'm watching a reproduciton of the actual image and get drawn into the picture, which almost seems 3 dimensional.
In my opinion,for the money, nothing comes close to it, the closest being the Ruby, the Sony VPL-VW100, which costs twice as much (I paid $3200. for the Pearl), has slightly more light output and slightly better color accuracy. The Ruby's lamp also costs three times that of the Pearl (about $250. street for the Pearl's) and both need to be replaced every 1000-1500 hours.
For me, the Pearl represents front projection finally becoming affordable; it has exceeded my expectations.
