Today's home cinema projectors produce smooth, high resolution, lifelike images at an affordable price.
It's now as simple as connecting your video source to the projector and switching both units on to recreate a true big screen cinema experience in your living room.
With High Definition set top boxes, DVD players and games consoles readily available, there's never been a better time to get into home cinema!
When choosing a home cinema projector, look out for;
Resolution - this is the number of pixels the image is made up of. 1080p (1920 pixels wide by 1080 pixels high) is the most popular.
Contrast - how well deep blacks, peak whites and everything between is displayed. If you can afford it, we recommend a ratio of 5000:1 or higher.
Connections - An HDMI input makes it easy to connect your HD equipment together and get the best possible picture.
Brightness - isn't a big consideration in home cinema projectors as it's assumed you will be darkening the room. Average brightness is around 1800 lumens
