I've had a projector for almost 10 years now. I love them, they're the bomb. Right now I have an Epson 760HD. Went with it because it was well priced as refurbished, the bulbs last a while, and they aren't that expensive to replace. Also is had higher lumens than the one before it.
I'm very happy with it. I have it set at about 100 inches from about 10 ft from its screen. I use it at my tv, I have my ps4 and speakers connected to it.
