How will a projector be on a white wall?

Question

i have a finished basment with white wall. i do not know any details, but how does a HD 720p image look overall on a white wall with a projector?

Answer 1

If the wall is fairly smooth, it could be impressive, especially if you are new to home theater.  Depending on your "shade" of white, there may be some color balance issues.

I projected on the wall for a few years before I saved up for a screen.  But once you have viewed a quality screen, it is no comparison.

You can buy special "screen" reflective paint designed specifically for projecting.  I have also seen fixed screen kits where you buy the fabric and stretch it yourself for pretty cheap.

An entry level da-lite is quite an improvement over the wall.  I actually got a "richvision" off ebay, cheapest thing I could find and even that is an improvement.

Good Luck!
