If I was to get a projector what all would I need projector avr speakers screen? Anything else. Rough estimate on how much it would cost decent brands what to look at in them. Its all New. Mostly looking for a friend I told he would probably spend at least 1000 or more on the set up

Hard to argue against the Ben Q 1070 and 1075s:

But that has pros and cons too. Price is but one consideration. Figure out your mount location and screen size and then work on budgeting from there. What I mean by this is that if you are going to need considerable lens shift you are probably better off going with something a bit more expensive like an Epson 5020 refurb.
