Best projector for 4K or less for watching movies

[AcuDefTechGuy]

Uh, we'll see in 5 years? Is there purple ray on the horizon, or are you planning on "upscaling" your blurays? Do you even have a viewing angle to take advantage of 4k, let alone 8k? I would bet a lot of money that you don't. Heck, do you even enjoy the full benefit of 1080? How far do you sit ADTG?

So, IMO, this is rather pointless, for 99% of us. Most people can't even fully resolve 1080p with their viewing angle, and that includes 99% of AHers.

I have a pretty immersive setup, and there is absolutely no pixelation that can be detected. You have to get pretty darn close to see it. It's a very big screen. I don't have any more space to fit in a football stadium sized screen.

I sit about 12 ft from the 120" screen.

I don't see any pixels at 6 ft away.

I'm not sure about purple-ray, but if they can make a 4K PJ for $6000, I would be very interested. It would be a pretty good excuse to upgrade.

Thanks. Nice, you get to benefit fully from 1080p.

Honestly, what do you think the price will be in 5 years? You don't honestly think it could be as low as $6,000 do you? I don't have a figure, but even today the better 1080p projectors are in the $25k-40k range.

Since it's a projector, I assume the intent is to watch movies, and not throw up still photos. This PJ of yours better have a FANTASTIC scaling engine, and that in of itself will probably cost a lot 5 years from now . . . ?
