Projector screens vary vastly in quality. Has What Hi Fi reviewed them? We should have a dedicated section for projector screens in reviews online as well.

We did review a couple a long time ago, but it's true to say we haven't done them recently and we probably should. I'll put it on my mental list of 'things to do'.

I opted for the Optoma HD33. Cost me £999, 12 months ago. Full HD and 3D. I think it's just flawless for the money. It gives the kind of performance that would have set you back 5 grand 6 or 7 years ago. Blu rays look just fantastic, the 3D is brilliant , it handles fast motion effortlessly and it has zero lag for gaming (i'm not a huge gamer, but I have to admit playing Batman; Arkham City on a 106" screen with a lifesize Batman is something to behold!) Oh, and up to 6000 hours lamp life is very good for a projector of this budget, too.
Seriously, you pair this up with the biggest screen you can accomodate and a decent surround sound set up and you'll out perform your local cinema, hands down.
