Do you like CRT, LCD, or DLP?

As well as www.projectorcentral.com
Use that and AVS, and every answer you need will be answered.

My favorite thus far (which just happens to be the one I own) is the Sanyo PLV-Z1. Check out my sig for some pics if you want.

Another vote for the Sanyo PLV-Z1, although I am biased as well ;D. I would make sure to look at the Sanyo PLV-Z2!

you will see Curt Palm at AVS-

he is also from Canada is an A1 person and has loads of Projectors(used)for sale!

if you have a closed dedicated theater room with no light you won`t be able to beat a CRT projector with dlp or lcd in the 2000-3,000 range!maybe not even in the 10,000+range


good luck-

Holy Carp! You spent three times as much on you projector screen than you did on your projector!?! I guess a front projector won't be as economical as I had hoped...

You can get screens all the way down to a hundred dollars or so. Stewart just happens to be one of the more expensive ones.

Yeah I just happened to get an awesome deal on my screen. You don't always have to drop $4k on a screen
