Easy access to 4k ultra quality
on February 17, 2021
Posted by: DocStan
Verified Purchase:Yes
A terrific upgrade from Roku 4.
I’m watching 4K movies with Atmos and HDR and loving it. I thought 4k was just about resolution but the color depth with HDR and the 3D sound stage of Atmos is remarkable.
Added Tidal for music. Hard to pull myself away.

Value “4K” projector with great lens shift
on January 5, 2021
Posted by: DocStan
Verified Purchase:Yes
Have a 125” screen
Unfortunately it is a bit off-center and have very tall ceilings
The lens shift permits good focus across most of the screen without having to use keystone correction
Out of the box color alignment was slightly off but with adjustment it is spot on
It is a very good projector that becomes great with fine tuning

Nest Doorbell (Wired) lets you know who~s there, so you never miss a thing. It replaces your existing wired doorbell and delivers HD video and bright, crisp images, even at night. It~s designed to show you everything at your doorstep ~ people head to toe or packages on the ground. And with 24/7 streaming, you can check in anytime. Or go back and look at a 3-hour snapshot history to see what happened.*

Great for homes without doorbell wiring
on August 15, 2020
Posted by: DocStan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have an old home and the doorbell wiring got remove in a renovation. This was my answer. I just drilled a few holes and used a small transformer and now I have video to my phone and audio over my Google home speaker. My wife thinks it’s creepy when I talk to the folks on our porch but it works great. Can do it from work or the pool and tell the Amazon guy where to put the packages.

Stellar projector
on August 25, 2019
Posted by: DocStan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to replace an older Epson home theater projector. The image is brighter so it can be seen in daylight hours without curtains. It comes on more quickly than the old unit.
I have a ceiling mount with high ceilings so I did use the keystone correction. The picture is sharp and you can see each pixel on the screen if you are close. A terrific unit for the price.

Is the screen sound transparent? I want to mount a center channel speaker behind the screen.

The screen is not fully sound transparent
Some frequencies may be attenuated
That being said, I have had no problem with just such a setup
I do use Ypao with the screen down (Audessey or any other setup program should work) to set up volumes and optimize crossovers
Unless you are a perfectionist I think you will be happy with it.

I plan to replace my LCD Projector HC 5500 Mitsubishi - with a new Epson 3800 4K 3LCD Projector. My Question ??? Do I have to replace my Denon Receiver AVR - 1912 as well ??? Greatly appreciate your thoughts, Speedy

Your receiver does not need upgrading because of the projector. The picture is beautiful regardless. If you want 4K, Atmos and Dolby Vision, then you have to update a lot more than just the receiver. So much has changed in the last decade regarding sound, HDMI switching, and processing that you might want to refresh everything.

is this screen good for Optoma short throw projectors

No
Short throw projectors need an extremely flat surface and there are small waves in the fabric
A flat wall is better

Is there a way to set a stop with this screen so when it powers on it stops at a desired length?

Yes
There are 2 adjusting screws inside the case at the cord end that allow adjustments in 1/2 inch increments
The manufacturer no longer posts instructions because too many people screwed it up though
They do include a tool for doing it but a 5/32 Allen wrench works too

How far down can you lower the screen? I.e. how much black is available above the projection area?

The screen has 8” of black fabric above the actual screen
This is the factory adjusted maximum.
It can be decreased but the manufacturer does not give clear instructions about how to do it and the You-tube videos are not helpful either
