Epson 3D 1080P Home Theatre Projector Package

I am using this projector in a home theatre with a 120 screen. I am driving it with a custom built HTPC and it does 3D as advertised. Picture quality is top notch and I keep it set on Eco mode for long lamp life.

This must be the best 1080p 3D projector available for the price. Amazing quality graphics for games and 3D cinema.

I gave up my home theatre system for almost 10 years until recently I saw a demo of the 3D projection at an agent. The heat started up again when I searched on the web and was attracted by this Optoma HD33. The price is really un-beatble and so I ordered one. Delivery was quick and within 1 week I received the full package. Setup was easy and in an hour time I could sit down to watch my first movie. The performance is great with solid and natural color, contrast and brightness fine tuning is easy for both 2D and 3D projection. This is really a great product valued for money.

I am using the HD20 as a home theater/gaming projector. It replaces a lower resolution projector in my system. The image is excellent - very sharp and clear, even when projected at 80 diagonal. I use it in 1080p definition over HDMI with a PS3, which also serves as a Blu-Ray and DVD player, and at 1080i with a Comcast CATV/DVR box. Coupled with a good surround system, this makes for a very impressive home theater or gaming experience. I also project standard definition video over the composite video input for sources such as the Wii or an old VCR. The projector upscales well without visible artifacts. The image with standard definition sources is acceptable. This is a limitation of the source material and not the projector. I have also used the VGA computer input, which also works very well when the computer is set to the 1080p native resolution. Other good points: the projector is quiet, without obtrusive fan noise; it is reasonably compact and light, which makes it easy to ceiling mount; the control is illuminated, which makes it easy to use in the dark. Some drawbacks of the projector: the room lights must be quite dim to get a good image (a typical issue with projectors); the black level isn't all that black; there is a slight amount of 'snow' (pixel level intensity noise) in the image if you look at it closely. This is a very good HD projector. After owning it for 11 months, I am very pleased with it.

This projector is now installed on my ceiling, and is for home theater use with a 100 inch screen. I have had it about a week now and am completely blown away. Until now my only exposure to 3D has been in movie theaters. The HD66 is comparable to this experience, mostly limited by my sound system. You do have to adjust the factory settings but when done WOW. The only negative I have is it requires the use of an adapter (3D-XL) to view Bluray 3D movies. However, for a combined price of less than a grand, it can't be beat. I would highly recommend its purchase by others.

This our first home theater projector, and all we can say is wow! We wish we added this to our home entertainment setup far sooner. Crisp, beautiful colors, deep blacks. Just as good in broad daylight as it is in a dark room. The 3000 lumens is a big hit. Like some other reviews have mentioned, it takes a bit to dial-in settings, but once that’s done, it’s a thing of beauty. No different from any quality display. A few things that we especially love: * The flexibility. This is great to travel with on family vacations. The fact that we bring such an awesome display with us on road trips is a game changer! * The built-in speakers make it easy to use it outside for the kids as they enjoy a movie night with friends. * The 4K resolution never fails to impress. * People have mixed feelings on 3D, but our kids LOVE it! Just note: you need EPSON 3D glasses to enjoy 3D. We didn’t know that initially, but worth it when we added the glasses. * Works well with our FireTV cube. * We’re able to shoot the projector off-center (horizontal and vertical) without any significant warp to screen resolutions. Keystone adjustments are easy enough. * It doesn’t get particularly hot and it isn’t noisy, especially on ECO mode. Bluetooth pairing with our Denon AVR-X2500 worked smoothly, but we did experience pairing issues with a Vizio B362 soundbar. YMMV. Also note, if you want a big screen (12’ +) you’ll need to place the projector a roughly the same distance from the screen. This isn’t a short-throw projector. All-in-all, Epson nailed the balance of performance and convenience with this projector package. We love everything about this projector. This is a review for the Epson Home Cinema 3800 projector that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.

Home Theatre system

I use it for my home theatre set up,amazing.

At first I thought it was too small for the projector (Epson 6350?) but as it was advertised at BandH as part of a package with that model I squeezed it in and once it snugged down it seems to fit OK. I'm sure the case will stretch out some, too. The case is very well built. It was bought by our photo club to use in our meetings.

I have an Epson 5050 for my home theater with a 175 screen. I bought it because I needed the brightness for that screen size, it has very good contrast and I hate the rainbow effect of single-chip DLP. When it came time for a projector for my office video editing suite, I felt the 5050 was overkill on a 150 screen. Reviews on this 3800 were good so I took a chance and I have to say it's great. Good optics, very sharp picture, good image. Contrast not quite as good as the 5050 but close. The 3D capability is awesome. This is an outstanding projector and because it's 3 LCD, no rainbow effect. Plenty bright for a 150 screen too. Very sharp. Love it.
