Home Cinema Upgrade Q: Is the Sony VPL-VW790ES a worthy upgrade to the Sony VPL-VW520ES? Worth paying the money? Should I stay with the 520 or pay the extra to go 790? Not sure hence asking 🙂

If you can afford it yes, (The laser light source will also last for ages without dimming) however if you are spending this type money and you are not set on a laser light source, also have a look at the JVC N series.

In all cases make sure you try before you buy as you may find that the improvement is not worth the extra cost. (To some the difference is night & day but to others it is just minor)
