Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 8350 LCD Projector

Over the years, we have worn out three ceiling mounted front tv projectors. When you get accoustomed to watching an eight foot picture, nothing less is acceptable. Flat screen tv's do not approach that size, and if they did, the price would be enormous. We searched for a new front projector with three requirements: (10 1080p, (2) 2000 lumens, and (3) 50,000:1 contrast. The Epson 8350 met these requirements. A local dealer could provide the unit for $1,399. We found one on E-bay for $1045 freight prepaid. It was much lighter than the old 3 tube projectors, easy to install, and works perfectly. We are delighted with the price and performance.

I purchased this projector for use in my man-cave.
It has been great so far.
From less than 20 feet I was able to expand the projection to 120 inches.
The images are crisp and the fan noise is minimal.

I've only run in to two problems:
First, the heat emitted from the lamp is intense, it heats up my 24x16 room very quickly.
Second, while it does have the option to change aspect ratios, it will not allow you to select these ratios when using certain hardware (such as an xbox).

No wonder I have seen highh ratings for this product.. Awesome picture out of the box, feel like watching a cinema in a multiplex theatre. The HD picture quality, no noise all makes it aperfect buy.

Would have been great if it had the lens shift adjustment on the remote itself. There is a slight curve at the top of my screem even though I did maximum lens shift. This is due to a bend in the wall where i have projected it. However if a keystone adjustment was availble, this would have solved my prob. Only because this I give a 4.5 stars.

Exceeds my expectations. My first projector. Works well in dark room; not so well when some light. Using 150in diag screen. Have been using for a few weeks. Reasonably quiet but needs space as is large unit. No setup issues...plugged in HDMI source and worked immediatly.

No match for this price range, this is and excellent home cinema projector, vibrant colors, black are black, HD movies at it best.
