I’ve talked before about the value of the home theatre, especially the backyard movie theatre setup. My family has put on movies throughout the summer and is already looking forward to relaxing out there in the crisp fall air.
But even if you’ve taken advantage on this CRAZY deal on an outdoor screen, you still need some way to actually project the movies. This deal seems to provide the answer:
Normally $1000, this home projector is 45 percent off right now (Photo via Amazon)
Optoma HD142X 1080p 3000 Lumens 3D DLP Home Theater Projector on sale for $547.31
This projector seems like the one you want even without the opportunity to save $450. Nearly 70 percent of the 445 customers who’ve reviewed it gave it a perfect 5 out of 5 stars. And I think this review from momof3 says it all:
I am not an audio-visual expert. I spent HOURS scouring reviews and watching you tube videos before I pulled the trigger on this, my first projector.
I am using it for backyard movies on a sixteen by nine foot white PVC screen, and it is awesome. Blows everybody away when they come over for backyard movie night. I was worried about rainbow effect. And now I almost wonder if it’s a myth! I’ve asked literally everyone who has watched our set-up, and out of 50+ people (and counting), young and old, not one person has reported seeing rainbows. I’m using a ‘flexiwhite’ screen made from a white PVC material which makes a spectacular picture with bright clear color and deep dark blacks. No complaint whatsoever on color or contrast. We do, admittedly, mostly watch kids stuff–so lots of animated movies–but in all content, we’ve got no complaints and have used only ‘out of the box’ picture settings. We start the show right around sunset and it does absolutely fine with dusk/twilight lighting and normal suburban background lighting of cars and neighbors’ houses, porch lights, etc.
I know how many hours of research I did before buying, and this review probably won’t stop your obsessive research either, but please know you can buy this projector with COMPLETE CONFIDENCE and you will be delighted!
Obviously it’s not just for outdoor movie viewing. You want a regular home theatre setup? Have at it!
