    At $1,699 street price - which includes a screen, ceiling mount, and cable - and if you are on a budget but want a very nice projector, here is one to consider. It looks fine out of the box, but I think all consumers should get some sort of calibration kit - such as from Datacolor or GretagMacbeth - to get the best possible performance.

    The Epson Home Cinema 720 is a killer projector. It gives solid performance in all areas with extra emphasis on rock-solid contrast and black levels.

The Cinema 720 is an exceptional value at $1299, and it was an easy decision to give it not only very high ratings in the 5-star categories, but our Editor's Choice Award as well. Read more

    Uhhh..wow...pretty much all i can say. I bought this unit then hooked it up to my PS3 for Blu-ray movies. I'm completely blown away. I was an early adopter of projectors and replaced an old SVGA projector i payed 3 times as much for 7 years ago. All i can say is wow...the picture quality you get for this amount of money is absurd. I'm just stunned at how good this thing looks. Technology is a wonderful thing in the fact that it allows this much visual bliss to be had ... Read more
