    Full HD projector (and screen) whats the best to buy?

    See threads title

    I want to buy a nice projector (btw we call them beamers over here) that can do Full HD.
    Also needs a good screen to go with it.

    Where are you guys buying such toys, and what do i have to know before buying?
    What should i look for?

    I dont want the thing to make a lot of noise, but besides that?

                      Panasonic PT-AX200U LCD Projector I use this projector in a multi-purpose fashion, meaning it is used for everything from the Sunday afternoon Football game, to Wii/Playstation, and Blu Ray movies. Even in the middle of the day in a room with three 3x6 windows with only 2" slat blinds covering them, I can get enjoyment from anything projected. Wait till the evening and pop a movie in and the picture is awesome. The blacks are very good, and the brightness can't be beat. This is paired with a 106" Elite screen and can't be happier. I don't know how much would be gained by spending the extra cash on a Stewart screen or going to 1080p projector. For under a grand you absolutely positively can't go wrong.

                      and i got it one abt.com,sell at $999,great item.

                          I bought an Optoma 720p HD65 about 6 months ago for $600, love it! I watch it at about 120 inches, but it can go to 250 I believe. That + HDMI Input Switcher + PS3 + Surround Sound is all you need. I had chosen it as my first projector based on a ton of solid reviews.

                          You can go 1080p for under a grand off Amazon (Optoma)

                          As for the screen, the projector looks great on the wall but I went with some pretty standard $150 ish white screen. If you have too much light, you'll want one of the dark screens that filter light out though.

                              It really depends on how much money you want to spend. If you have around 10k to burn I'd most likely go with this one...

                                  Epson 9500UB *replacement for the 7500UB* and Screen Innovations Black Diamond 100" if it will fit. I've designed home theaters for Street of dreams homes upwards of $80-150k and seen this combo fit right at home. You are looking at about 7K for the combo and in a room with marginal ambient light you will be majorly impressed I promise.
