Fake Epson 4K or Enhanced? Real CR or BS?
"..I was just about to pay for the home cinema bundle when my son asked what does the word enhanced under the 4K logo mean? The salesman then explained that it was not actual 4K.. Lucky via my son I found out before I paid for what I thought was a real 4K projector.." - Client on record.
With Contrast Ratio / 4K claims we're sad to say you really have to look at the fine print.
Some claims are outright misleading, got by cherry picking pieces from this and that test or comparing "apples to oranges".
We believe that any test measurements that can only be duplicated under special conditions are misleading for end users of Home Theatre.
Update "In other words, Dynamic and Full On/Off contrast specs are notoriously misleading." Projectorcentral

Projectors offer the best value
Whereas Flat Screen TVs can be big mirrors.
A friend of our asked "What do you think of the picture" and we didn't have the heart to tell him
that his new 60 inch 4K TV was hopeless compared to a projector, at least in the way he was using it.
- It was an LG but all brands would have the same problem.
The first thing we noticed was the massive reflections of the windows in the room. The movie playing from Netflix (StarWars) was so pixelated it seemed the 4k was making it worse.
Projectors don't reflect.
The screens or wall that is, also projectors generally seem to handle low res content better. Projectors offer an IMPRESSIVE sized image for the same money or less money that you'd spend on a 60 inch mirror!
Home Cinema / Theatre - Gaming Projectors what's best?
We're often asked "what is the best projector" the answer depends on your situation.
If you've got a well lit or bright room, say a business or board room or lounge room (that's not light controlled) you'll need a brighter projector (more ANSI lumens) than one designed for the lounge or home theatre. Sound systems are the same, there is not one that's right for every situation. If you're after a very good system to go with a top line projector in a home theatre please contact us for a bundle price including delivery.
The Projection Screen can make a big difference too.
The size and aspect ratio of the screen relates back to the projectors specifications, location and the lighting.
Epson projector range now has alternatives with the likes of BenQ with their W8000 and W11000 which is true 4k.
Epson offer a lot of value in their lower cost, bright gaming (not too shabby Home Theatre either) EH-TW 5300 Projector

an upgrade from 24 to 36 months with an RRP of $199.
BenQ premium dealers may offer this warranty uplift free if you ask them for it.
Later this year BenQ will be launching a new multi purpose projector aimed at the home lounge room sports and gaming market. The new BenQ W1090 projector, it will boast 1080P + Sound with a handy short throw of 2.5m for 100 inch screen. Then there is the BenQ W8000, the Epson TW8300 and TW9300 true black level / CR killer..
3 Year Warranty takes BenQ to a new level it's only possible because of the much improved projector build quality.
Did you know?
Epson make the 3-LCD light engines that many other brands use, we figure they'd know how to get the best from it.
Did you know that for example Panasonic (now RIP for home cinema) used Epson 3-LCD in their Home Cinema projectors.
This helps dissipate heat.
