| Picked this up for about $3200, i was impressed with the colors and sharpness. I used to have a crapper projector before this and its certainly amazing. I like the RS232 control as well. There are still certain ARTIFACTS i cant determin the source of but i cant say if its the projector or not. I bought a DVDO Iscan HD+ For this and running Pure DVI to DVI via DVD, no Digital To Analog or Analog to Digital Conversion, Except on Satellite Sources. Once i setup to bypass the projectors internal scaling, the image quality was much much better. You can tell by just changing the iscan to 420i or 420p and the internal scaling kicks in again and you can see the diffrence. So this projector is Capable of looking Much better than it is with its internal scaling and deinterlacing using an external one. Also note that Any D/A or A/D Converting currently in you're path really degrades the quality... i was surprised when going from component into the iscan to DVI out, To DVI In from the DVD and Out DVI to the projector through the iscan, the image looked WAY sharper... |

| None Yet, Wish it did 70hz FrameRate... Anyone know if the HD2 is cabable of 70hz? If so its just a matter of Firmware Mod perhaps to stop the down conversion back to 60hz when 70hz is used. |
