Fh02 epson. Brightest proejctor ever.

hmm , I think something like [this ](https://www.amazon.com/Epson-EpiqVision-Streaming-Brightness-Entertainment/dp/B0B9CG7QZK?crid=MMFHO3B2AW6I&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.vaYSzFkJZdFzQ5_Cn-URjsKlqup4NbiiRDp-ZHd2enz_tt8OUFKFQFevIaoA0Sq-v6i-gK1uMLWYkEmO2zG-4yQ7KUBcDVDJmv5oftbieRA-aTwILpaTDJ0MoiVgFbtjZHencoX2Pjru2VXq5eyI5xQ4FmZFoUCmJhBZv9paTjPRjIvs66sfLxH6c4FBgTk_5R4DbM0muqYRNAnGQz6MaPlvQpZDKRQcqQqNlZylDdc.BDvjXMVpLDy1J8L-zRC1w8fzwcVCY3lMS9fL5IIaOMk&dib_tag=se&keywords=Epson+co+fh02&qid=1750969311&sprefix=epson+co+fh02%2Caps%2C401&sr=8-1&linkCode=ll1&tag=grok43-20&linkId=7bf6b241f505eed6d868c8da44c381ff&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl) would work ,It delivers bright and clear 1080p video thanks to its 3LCD tech and 3000 lumens of color/white brightness, making it well-suited for rooms with some ambient light. Its short throw works well at your 3–5 meter distance, and built-in Android TV is a plus for streaming. You can simply ignore the Bluetooth if you’re using a stereo system via HDMI or aux. Overall, it’s a good value projector under €600 for a group movie setup without going overboard on features you don’t need

Yes it is. Got mine open box in 500$. For anime it's a no brainer.

Kind of depends what you want it to do. If you want a full 4K home cinema, you're looking at $1500+. If you want base HD to do large movies for novelty, there's an Epson Epiq that's about $500 that'll work. The $1500+ ones are unbeatable though, I won't go back to a TV if I have a choice.

For $800 you’re looking at 1080p not even pixel shift. You’ll have to do the math on throw distance but an Epson 1080 or Benq 585 are decent machines

Lots of decent options. The Benq 2150 will look best but an Epson 1080 or 90 will have more pop but less refinement. Could be good for your use. It’s less bright and not requested 4k but the xgimi horizon pro would fit some people’s setups in that budget.

I think you have the right instincts here A 4k projector will do the trick. Heck I have a 1080p Epson I picked up open box and a denon avr that can do 7.1. No atmos. And it sounds and looks amazing So nowadays an atmos capable receiver and 4k projector ( even just led ). Will look and sound amazing Just need a few small extra back speakers if and when you decide to use all the extra channels

I don’t have a 4k tv even. I will probably get one soon But I am really impressed with how good even an 1080p Epson can project at 110” image that is totally cinematic So I think any 4 k Epson will be totally good I feed it an Apple TV I have a marantz cinema 70 which is their lowest powered one and use an extra 2 channel amp I have to power fronts. That room looks pretty big so I would go with something cinema 50 and still have the option to add extra power later.

I got this on a budget and shoot at a 91” budget Elite Spectrum 2 screen. It looks great at night but during the day it is washed out for sure. Since i only watch tv in the evening and am not a weekend sports person it is great for me. So I would say in your budget if you have a dark room this kind of setup or a more modern 4k version could work but if you have a daylight room, nah.

If that's the case, see if you can look at an Epson 1080, maybe refurbished or open-box. It will be a good starting point and its retail price is around $500 US. The Epson 8350 (my first ever projector) is also a good option. They have been out of production for awhile but they can be had for $250 or less. Only down side is they are larger than that Optoma or the 1080.

I have the Epson 880 and 1080.  They're both fantastic projector and some of the best values you can possibly get, especially in the 200 - $250 range, which is phenomenal value.  1060 is, as I understand it, similar to between the 880 and 1080 so I would absolutely recommend it.

For $1000 or less you’re either getting the cheapest lamp based 4K unit or a pretty nice 1080p model and solid state (laser or LED) is probably on the table. My no. 1 recommendation for a $1000 model USED to be the BenQ HT2060. I say used to because the price has gone up since this tariff insanity. Assuming you can catch a sale or deal on a refurb the HT2060 would still be my top pick. The reason: image quality. It produces a bright, crisp, colorful image with one of the highest native contrast ratios of any projector under $5,000 (my $3000 4K projector produces around half the native contrast). It’s 4LED so no bulbs to replace. 1080p/120Hz with 8-16ms of input latency and instantaneous pixel response which makes it perfect for even competitive gaming. The only negatives if you can call them negatives is it’s not a portable or ‘lifestyle’ projector so it doesn’t have built in streaming or a gimmicky gimbal mount. It’s an honest-to-goodness home theater projector with optical zoom and lens shift. Though it does have pretty good built in sound if you’re into that. I would recommend the H2060 for screen sizes of 90-120”. Any larger and you might want a brighter projector which at this price probably means going bulb. The BenQ TH575 or Epson 1080 are good alternatives. Neither will have the contrast nor will either be as colorful as the 2060 but you’ll get more output to push a larger screen or compete with more ambient light. The Epson in particular lacks the sharpness of the DLPs but is a certified light canon cable of driving enormous screens. https://www.avsforum.com/threads/benq-ht2060-4led-hdr-home-theater-gaming-projector-review-and-owners-thread.3270380/
