I have a client that wants a new projector. He currently has a 6 year old Vivitek 1080P projector with a Silverstar screen. He has some ambient light issues.
Its a traditional dedicated theater with all Triad speakers. It is at the end of a basement that opens to the rest of the room. Money isn't the issue. I am wrestling with putting up a New long throw with a ALR screen or a Ultra Short throw. It had curtains at one point to help with some light issues but the wife took them down. I can't find a UST sample from my distributor to try. I want to make sure this will be a substantial difference from what he currently has.
Has anyone switched over to a short throw(LG or Samsung)? If so, how did it compare? I am afraid to throw a Sony 295 4K unit in because of the Lumen output. Let me know what you guys think. All opinions are welcome!
