I went to the Bristol AV show, firstly expecting to see a hoard of projectors and screens on show, whereas I counted the number of PJ set ups to around four in total! I was impressed with the budget Optoma on show at £799 but could see that the blacks and richness of picture weren't quite there. The Epson on show didn't impress me at all and the JVC, whilst clearly the better of the projectors there, actually didn't blow me away for the £5k premium it costs.
Have I misunderstood the potential and quality of a projector when compared to a television. I honestly thought I would see the same level of high definition only on a larger scale. Am I missing something?
The 5.1 set ups didn't entirely impress either I have to say - atleast the ones I saw/heard. For me the most impressive speaker I found was the LS50 Kef bookshelves.
I will say, I didn't expereince the many many high end two channel speakers on display as I wasn't in the market for a pair, so please excuse me if I missed some wonderful sounding high end floorstanding speakers.
