Advantages: Movies like they are meant to be seen Disadvantages: Pricely bulbs
...came into contact with the Epson X52 (a posher version of the product I'm reviewing here). My little mind began thinking overtime and it was not long before I had purchased the Epson EMP S5 projector from play.com for £250. Expense would not have been an issue selling my prize TV pocketed me well over £1000, so I could have gone higher but to be perfectly honest I thought this was the same projector I used at work, which was good enough for me.
... ...it was not the same one I use at work, but that was fine I still wanted it, I NEEDED it in fact. Setting up the projector is a doddle, more so than setting up a TV, you simply position the projector where you want it and plug the wires in. You can have sound through the projector, but having a cinema sound DVD player I never felt there was much reason to do this, onboard sound being only mono.

Advantages: big screen size Disadvantages: not hd so screen quality slighty lacking
my friend owns one and its a good buy for a cheap slighlty cinema experiance but you should avoid if usin in a small room as it generates a lot of heat an has a constant humming to it that makes you want to throw it out the window!
so the pro`s are
1) the screen size can be changed to fit your wall/sreen or what ever up to something stupid like 90" i belive.
2)its fun for big multiplayer games e.g halo3, mario party
3) a cheap way to get a party/cinema ... ...your way an looks kinda smart
the con`s are
1)not hd and when my friend bougth this it wasnt that big but now hd is so much cheaper an move availible it would be worth upgradin to an hd model if you have the cash 2)picture quality fades when the screen is made bigger so best to keep it about 60" 3)again its the heat it generates theres no need for heaters with this thing in your room 4)is rather difficult to install if you wish to wall mount it ...
