Initial impressions very pleased

This was an upgrade for me from a 720p DLP projector (Mitsubishi HD1000u). Initial impressions are very positive based on about 10 hours of viewing & tweaking. Very quiet and plenty bright running in low power mode. The high resolution (1920 X 1080) approaches that for a typical 2k digital cinema so my 145" diagonal screen viewed from about 15 feet distance provides a very pleasing movie experience. That said the increase in resolution from 720p is an incremental step so it is not the be all and end all of image quality in projectors. More specifically the source material you feed it is what really brings out the quality. Many HD feed materials (from cable or satellite) don't ever approach the inherent resolution of the projector so at this point only blu-ray source material will really give the utmost in high resolution detail (and not even all disks depending on the original mastering etc.). Black levels are similar to my previous DLP projector so if you are obsessed with having pitch black star fields you should opt for a pricier DLP or LCD projector which may more closely approach jet black in those situations. I don't worry too much about this aspect reminding myself that even film projectors don't provide jet black when the screen goes blank so the HD20 actually matches the real cinema experience more closely (how's that for rationalizing why a cheaper projector is better!) . At this price level (<$1000) it is hard to imagine a bigger bang for the buck in terms of image quality. Finally I highly recommend you check out www.avsforum.com where there is an extensive discussion thread about this and competing projectors.More detail ...
