What modifications have people made to the X1?
First off, be aware that any modification to the projector itself is almost certainly going to void your warranty. Modify it at your own risk. Some owners have added optical filters in front of the lens of the X1. (see next item) There has also been discussion of adding an “anamorphic” lens, in order to take advantage of the X1’s full 800×600 resolution with 16:9 material. I do not have any details on this mod. It is recommended that you not modify the projector in an attempt to reduce fan noise, as the designers have put “the best practical low-noise cooling system into the projector already”. One owner has heavily modified his X1. Among his mods are a partially blacked out color wheel, lens iris, blacked out optical engine, and lots of filters. See his description and photos at this AVS Forum thread. Another owner has created a modified X1 projector that he calls the “Goo 0.5”. No details are available on exactly what modifications were made but some who have seen the projector were
