Hi,
I hope I posted this in the good place
I am looking to buy a projector and a retractable projector screen, I don't really care if it's manual.
Projector will mainly be used for movies but could be used for gaming but it's not a priority.
I have a total budget 2300€ and I can go up to 2500€ if there is a real added value.
Room condition: can be dark but not 100% during the day as the sides of the blinds let some lights through. All walls are white. Whatch distance is 3.5 - 4 meters.
I don't care about sound quality as I have a good soundbar with a subwoofer. Integrated apps aren't usefull either because I ll have an iptv and a computer connected to it.
Possibilities of projector placement. My actual understanding is that placing the projector in the center will result in a better quality.
I have got only one wall for the screen, it needs to be retractable as it will be in front of a door.
If the screen is mounted on the ceiling: horizontally over 2m80 maximum, vertically 1m52 between ceiling and the bottom. I would like a 16/9 screen.
- If ceiling mounted:
As there is a rack of lights in the middle of the ceiling, I only have a distance of 1m30 between the wall and the lights.
- If I install a shelf on the opposite wall:
Distance : 4m10. ( What would be perfect hight for the shelf ? )
- I also looked at UST but it seems that for equal budget, quality will be worse especially since I wouldn't have a specific screen ( not in budget) and light would reflect on the white ceiling. Thus I am not considering that option anymore.
Thanks for your advices ! Don't hesitate if you need any additional data.
