I have looked at both these pjs. Sadly not side by side but in sim lighting. The 4805 was the one for me. The 16:9 aspect is better for watching dvds. All the light output is being used. But the real killer was the image when using the 4805s dvi connection. It's sharper,richer,better blacks...
As a suggestion from someone who hasn't got a barrel to push. (I don't own any of these models) You need to deside what you are going to use the Projector for the most. Watching HDTV, (something that we will probably never see over here) DVD, TV etc. The other is the environment you are...

Sorry mate. But trying to get info on any Marantz bandwidths is like getting blood from a stone. I've been trying on the 7300 for some time now and can't find a thing. Good luck.
