| Personal Experience |
| I bought the Sharp xr32x because it was the lowest priced projector that had: High lumens, adequate contrast, and a DVI (or HDMI) input (I had heard that S-video did not look that good). I needed the higher lumens because I was using the projector both at home and in a classroom setting. I was very surprised to see how well the projector looks with S-video on my 106 inch screen. But, can see that there is a large improvement when using the DVI with 720P. When using the DVI input, I can see a real difference going from 480P to 702P. But, I see no difference going to 1080i (My Denon DVD player does not have 1080P). The DVI 480P looks very much like S-Video. We use it both for our personal home theater (that I'm building in my basement) and for a Bible club that we put on in a local public grade school. For both purposes, it works great. At the public grade school I don't need to take the projector out of econo-mode. So, this projector has lumens to spare........ The fan is ultra-quiet and I have no complaints. I'm thinking that I'll use this projector for dual purposes (movies and Bible club) for a few years, then upgrade to a full 1080 when Blu-Ray becomes more popular (and cheaper). However my wife and kids think that there is no need to upgrade. They're amazed that such a large screen can look so good...... We watched Peter Pan and the initial flight sequence gave a perception of being there. Very cool. |
