In use with a Cygnus Imaging optical quadrupler (www.cgns.com) The unit has a nice smooth picture with no noticable pixelization at 72" 4:3 from 12 feet for viewing. Fan noise is typical (louder than it should be, about 65db from 24"). Lamp life is terrific at 8000+ hours rated. Setup with the Video Essentials DVD was straightforward and the unit has a decent pluge capability with good greys and contrast. With a street price of around $3600 and the Cygnus lens at $695 you have for $4300 a setup that will compete up to about $10,000 for an entry level 7"CRT system (Seleco or Sony). Good start for entry level high end projection home theater.

Units have a slight hue shift from left to right, evidentally as a result of the 3-panel design and improper light path design. It's not "extremely" distracting, but... shouldn't be there in a nearly $7,000 product.

650 Lumens doesn't seem to be 4 times brighter than my previous Sharp-Vision XG-E650UB that was (supposedly) rated at 160 ANSI lumens. Much brighter... yes, for sure, but 4 times? dunno.

Other than that, works great. Use with Panasonic DVD player, great home movies!
