Review by Jordan

I had been having a great experience with my bSure SV2, but after 650 hours on the lamp I started having picture problems and the projector also kept reseting after every use. The problem with the picture was that the right side of the screen had a green tint that couldn't be fixed. Could have been that the lamp only lasted 650hours?

The best one I've had so far. Used with a 1.5m wide screen (so, at this distance, room can have lights on) as a TV with Bose Lifestyle surround sound. Awesome. Very clear picture. Completely wows all who see (and hear) it. Lamps now about £290 so very cheap to run per hour.

Any Problems: Lamp life supposed to be 6000 hours. first lamp did only 3896, but not helped by forgetting to clean out the filter. My fault.

Review by Daniel Brown

Had it a month now and overall very pleased although a scart input would simplify connection to my sky box. Connected to a playstation 2 with a component video lead (£7) the picture quality from dvds and games is excellent, Gran Tourismo 4 is superb!! I have it set up in my loft conversion and you need the blinds down for the best image alhtough it is acceptable in daylight the screen size i use is about 8ft wide.

Any Problems: None

Excellent projector for presentations and DVD's. Very easy to use and so quiet! Only paid $1279.00 Canadian.... excellent price.

Any Problems: Would be nice if this projector had a computer monitor loop-thru.

In few words the projector is not al all good. The size is very big. The projector is difficult to use. The picture quality is average. Overall it is not a good projector.

Great projector for Home Theatre. It has component, S-Video and if you need composite video inputs. i like the long life lamp.It display 16:9 format nicely, not as good as a 16:9 projector but good enjoy for me.

Any Problems: None after 765 hours used

I love this thing. Man what a difference from last generation projectors like Plus and NEC. I bought this unit for it's long life bulb. (about 3 times more than others.) I bought it for $1250. and am considering buying another one for the kids in their playroom.

Bought online and just received Friday. Project had bad case of the jitters when I tried it initially, then just ided completely this morning. Called dealer and they told me to call 800 number. Waited on hold for 30 minutes and then they cut me off. Tried again and waited and waited, just hung up. Looks good on paper and is a good looking unit but quality and service are obviously very weak!

Any Problems: Poor quality image Unit failed No real service to speak of
