Question

Do home thater projectors have good video quality?

Answer 1

Does the cinema have good picture quality? Well you may be surprised that some are digital front projectors. While few can be classed as HOME theatre projectors, very similar quality can be obtained with off the shelf projectors and screens.

Front projectors are the best way to get a home theater experience that approximates a commercial movie theater --- and in some ways better, since there are no noisy neighbours, no sticky floors, much cheaper snacks and no long drive.

Picture quality, like with everything else is determined by what you buy, but an 8'-10' 1080p image with better than 25,000:1 contrast ratio is achievable on projectors costing less than $5000 (you can get a 1080p projector for under $2000).

Answer 2

They do if your willing to put the money into it.  And front and rear projectors are actually the same projector you just tell it in its setup menu if its in the front or back.

Answer 3

Those that project from a LCD data projector do better in the darkest room then a lighted room. PQ (picture quality is good to very good) Still you have to worry about wash outs and the lamp you have to replace. Yes there is a lamp blub in there.

Answer 5

Yes, they do! They have the best picture quality money can buy. But, only the front projectors are good, not the rear ones.

Answer 6

Don't forget HD content. You must feed it a HD signal.

Answer 7

Just like convential tv's some do and some don't. First to get a great picture quality you must invest in a good projector. general upwords of 1200 dollars. the other thing you must take into consideration is the screen itself. The higher the gain of the screen the better your picture will be. Check out optoma, planar and runco for projectors and be sure to check out planers X screen as well as screens from stewart firehawk
