Purchased for 8 hour seminars
on November 12, 2015
Posted by: Anonymous
from Monterey, California
This is my 4th projector and so far it is working very well and has a beautiful screen image. It is very easy to hook up, turn-on, and adjust to the projection environment. The built-in speaker can be used with the HDMI cable for smaller audiences, which can be very handy when traveling. It is a little larger and heavier than I would like but the more compact ones do not have the capacity for the number of seminar hours the projector is used for or the numerous videos that are included.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I recommend this because it displays in HD, has a good contrast ratio and is bright enough even for display in the day time.

Runs a little hot, slight fan noise but apart from that for the money, this is an excellent projector. Smaller than a lot of Epson models I'm used to.

Bought it for a portable "movie night" system- Impressive!

I bought this unit as part of my fully portable video system. I've used nearly every brand of audio-visual products in my 25 years of work as a public school district electronic technician. Epson has regularly produced some of the better quality projectors, and if you are seeking one with a specific feature, you're sure to find something in this line. Like I said, I was building a fully portable setup to use for movie night with my daughter's soccer team. I use a Gemmy 123 x 70 screen, and a Sony SR510H player. The Sony is not true 1080p, but it has HDMI for video and L/R analog audio outs, which I needed, because I connect this to a set of full-range powered loudspeakers for boosting the sound to match the high-quality projected image! This Epson puts out great colors, both primary and secondary, right out of the box (although I did tweak the saturation levels to my taste). The picture is sharp all the way out to the edges, and in a low light environment, the dark scenes have plenty of contrast to bring out the images. As a professional technician, I can tell you the audience was happy. How do I know? The kids became quiet during the movie. The adults could easily see/hear the show from over 40 feet away. That's 3 dozen people in one backyard. I would not hesitate to recommend this Epson for either a budget or a mid-level system. I saw no advantage to spending several hundred dollars more for a true 1080p projector, UNLESS you have a collection of Blu-Ray movies and a player to match. In my case, I get requests from others to play their disc, and most are simple widescreen discs. Bottom line, no one but a movie snob will notice the difference, or care.

Crisp, Clear Home Projector
on December 7, 2015

from Coloma, MI
We bought this projector on a good black friday sale and so far it was really worth the money. We were surprised how clear and bright the picture was. We ended up hooking up a speaker system, but the built-in speaker was not too bad for a single speaker (sounded like an average TV speaker). I hope this lasts a long time as it is great for watching movies, tv shows and sports at home.

Getting started
on May 9, 2016
Posted by: Oliver
I purchased thhis product 3-days now, and I am still having problem getting it to work on my XP laptop and Windows 7 laptop. Each time I am asked to go through a registration of the same product. Then all I am getting is a download of the user guide. Why can'tit just load the drivers and recognize the connection. I am so frustrated with this system that I am attempting to return it.
