deepakvali 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2009 well tell him to keep the setup if the price is more then $500 (everything)...the owner should not depreciate the equipment based on purchase price as prices have changed drastically even if we ignore the increments of value. in the resale market, doubt anyone would even bother to pay S$500 for the setup. alternatively, implement your setup in phases. buy speaker, AVR and bluray first and use normal LCD or Plasma. when budget next becomes available, buy PJ, etc....of course, this sequence can be tweaked to your needs. hope u understand what i am saying....

deepakvali 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 BTW anyone has an opinion of Morel speakers? Also how's the prices of AV one? morel make good drivers, not sure about their home speaker range though but they are somewhat similar to dynaudio, using oversized voice coils. my wife has morel's in her car and they sing very well....i have dynaudio at home, love em they are power hungry though.....

JK_headache 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2009 So did you every buy a projector? I'm now considering the Mitsubishi HC3800. got a decent price on it and found a dealer who has zero % installment with DBS cc. halooo elfe.... my fiancee and i have discussed and worked out our sums again...due to tight budget, we decided not to spend so muc on the PJ 1st, by doin so, we can hav more $ for the rest of other stuff. buyin whole set @ $1600 from the owner too exp liao, given the age of all his stuff... saw infocusx16 @ $499 at sitex, know its not an ideal PJ but the price is low and we can use it temporary and when we hav more $, will change to a GOOD one ! but suay la...went back to sitex on the last day...all 100 sets sold out went down to KEC, they told me SANYO PJ, cant remember the model but it will cost ard $2000+...too exp again... finally, we spoke to the owner and got a deal...motorised screen + his panasonic AE-200 PJ @ $300...model really old thou, but our intention is to get the screen and to save the hassle of damaging the false ceiling, as the current motorisd screen is mounted, deep set, in the false ceiling... now got to wait for nex IT show (march 2010?) to get cheap projector lor....targettin to move in by april next yr...so still can wait a bit btw, how muc is ur quote for ur Mitsubishi HC3800? did a search on the web...looks not bad...

yjx 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2009 I am an owner of a Panasonic-PT-AX200E, 720p native, HD-ready projector for 10mths now. I use it in my living room with SCV or DVD or laptop. But I only used it on weekend about 8hrs or so, as we have TV in the study and bedroom during weekdays. So that will work out a bulb lifespan of 4 to 5yrs. This is a short-throw projector which gives me 90" @ about 3m. Given the size of living rooms, this is a major consideration, you don't want to buy a brand new projector and realised that it can only give you 60" due to space constraints...
