Hi Everyone,
I’m really excited about buying my first projector, though I don’t have a huge budget to work with. I’m pretty sure that I’ve narrowed it down to these two.
The 6100 can be had for $999 Canadian ($1199 minus $200 rebate until Oct. 26 at Business Depot), and the X1 is $1277. The 3x colour wheel combined with the reduced price seems like the 6100 is the winner, but I’ve never seen either in action. Does anyone know of stores in the GTA that have one or both on display? I’d like to see it first if I can, to avoid the hassle of sending it back.
Does anyone know of a better deal to be had on either of these projectors? If so, I’d love to know about it! Is there another low-budget projector that I’ve missed entirely? If so, please let me know! I’ve heard the 4805 is really nice, but at $2399 Canadian it’s out of my price range.
One last projector question – is there a GTA place that sells a VGA to component cable? What about ceiling mounts? Right now the ones at www.perfectmounts.com seem like the best looking and most functional mounts, and the price isn’t that bad ($135 CDN.)
Any advice would be appreciated!
