Does BenQ make good projectors?
Most of the BenQ projector line is top drawer. Unfortunately, if you believe the negative comments of forum members on the AVforum, they complain that the original as well as replacement projector bulbs do no last very long, at least up their so-called maximum potential [2500 – 3000 hours in the econ mode]. On the other hand, the Infocus projection bulbs last a real long time. Good luck!
BenQ does make a very nice projector based on DLP technology. If you are subject to RBE(rainbow effect) I would suggest a LCD or LCOS based projector at a much lower price range than BenQ, but would still offer you an exceptional picture. Some of those models would be the Sony HW10, the new Panny 3000U, the Epson 1080UB and in the higher price range JVC HD1/HD100 models, Sony VW60/70. All of these are full HD projectors with the ones mentioned earlier being cheaper in price. Good luck and enjoy.
