Lamp didn't make 400hrsDec 16, 2008 Had this unit for less than 6 months, and have been very happy with the picture. The lamp, however, has gone out - after less than 400hrs of viewing (on low power) - and less than 6 months of total ownership. The projector is sold as having a 1yr warrant, and the lamp is supposed to last 3000hrs in low power, and 2000hrs in high power. If you read the warranty, however, it will only cover the lamp for 90 days (or 300hrs) whichever come first. So.. looks like I'll have to spend over $300 to get a projector running that I spent 1100 on less than 6 months ago.
Excellent home theater projectorDec 02, 2008 The HC1500 is an excellent projector that I have been using in a DIY home theater installation. It replaced an InFocus LP330 that I purchased used several years ago. The only drawback I have found, and it is a minor one, is that the throw ratio does not provide much flexibility. You should do some homework to ensure that your picture will fit on your screen, given the proposed distance between the projector and your screen.
In my installation the screen and projector are both fix-mounted. Since both are wall-mounted not ceiling-mounted, I had no latitude to adjust the distance between the projector and the screen. At first it appeared that the smallest picture size (available through adjustment of the manual zoom lens) would be too big for the screen. But I found a projector software setting that changed the aspect ratio to correct the problem. The projector is reasonably quiet and the picture is very sharp.
We use the projector primarily for "movie night" but sports also display well. I would highly recommend this projector to anyone interested in creating a relatively inexpensive home theater.
iTS....OK.....Nov 28, 2008 This thing is ok, it looks good i guess, i had it set up while my old PHILLIPS tube tv was hooked up(with standard coax) and the colors were better on my old tv than the projector(plugged into my fios dvr with HDMI). The throw range on this thing SUCKS in comparison to some other projectors and I am picky. If im paying a thousand or so for a projector it better be loaded with options. If you wan't a LARGE image you better have a HUGE room to put this thing in as its location dictates the size of the picture.(the zoom function barley does a thing on this projector). As most people dont have a 25 / 20ft room to put this projector in do some research as Throw range is an important factor
Great Projector for anyoneNov 11, 2008 I first looked at many reviews on this projector online, I was mainly looking for something that was affordable but packed what I needed for whatever I might do. This projector had it all! It also was given the highest in reviews everywhere so my mind was made up.
Now I'm not like the other guys who seem to be professionals at this type of thing, but i wanted something to play my video games on and such and maybe more. When I first turned it on I was amazed. The brightness level blocks out any lights I have on and creates perfectly crisp and clear pictures with the best color I've seen in a projector and I've seen a lot. Though I laugh at amazons pic of a family watching in a room which appears lit by sunlight, which kills the pictures brightness horribly, that was my only complaint about it.
The hum wasn't very loud either, I didn't really notice it much and it was the simplest thing to set up. It works with my computer and PS3 perfectly and gives me a picture I can put my friends TV's down for. I laughed at the up to 300" in picture size, cause as long as its dark you can get as huge as you like. Parked the car in a parking lot and powered this baby up to play Guitar Hero on the side of a building and lets just say people noticed for at least half a mile, if that's not bright enough (it was night time though) I don't know what is.
This projector filled my needs and more. Even when DJing I got all the legalities out of the way and played music videos at my dances. I can say that a few probably went home and bought themselves one of these. I would recommend this projector to anyone for whatever you need. I hear complaints on the aspect ratio not changing, well now things are all coming in widescreen, so there's not much reason to complain.
This thing ROCKS!!!
Outstanding value Oct 20, 2008 I am really pleased with my projector. I have had it over 9 months and am still blown away at the quality. HD TV is mind blowing, especially sports. I have had many friends over, who have spent way more than me on large LCD TV. They cant believe how much I have paid, compared to their TVs. I have heard "Your picture is just as good as mine" more than once. I have it projected on a white wall, and it looks great. (One friend thought the wall was a TV.) It also works great with my PS3. Overall I think it is a steal for the price. I don`t see why anyone would buy a TV when they can get a projector. If you have the room, and a large white wall it is the only way to go.
