Thread: DIY HT Projector

Is it really worth the effort?

You can get new ones on ebay under $600 au including postage with spare lamp.

Check out Barry White's extensive thread following his construction a few years ago.

Maybe with prices so low it isn't any more, but I gather the quality of the home-builts is waaaay more than you get for $600.

You lucky bugga! Looked at a couple of 2nd had units before I bought my Hitachi (LCD). Absolutely sensational (sony from memory).

But the cost / size / weight / missus all said no.
