i'm thinking about getting one and i was just wondering which was better. newegg is running a hell of a deal on either type.

also, is it really worth it to buy a screen? you can get paint that works like a screen, right?

thanks.

I worked in electronics at sears and I always liked LCD projections better but DLP isnt bad either....kinda just your preference. and yeah they work good if you want a big screen get one

I had a DLP one and it was great for Xbox/DVDs.

Only fair warning: These are only truly enjoyable in > 90% darkness. If there's any windows nearby, it's basically worthless unless you go to lengths to cover the windows up. They work best in basements or locations where light doesn't "leak" into.

Once you're in a pitch black setting, though, the picture is stunning. Don't buy this for daily television watching, unless you watch all your TV in a darkroom, and it's in HDTV. Analog TV blown up to 75" isn't exactly "pretty" to look at.

or, you could just get one with a decent contrast rating and high output

No. A projector just isn't meant to be watched in the light.

bttt.

leaning towards DLP, contrast looks WAY better.

DLPs are better all around.

Better contrast ratios, better refresh rates.
