Home Cinema 1080 V11H980020-N

I bought Epson EB-FH08 last week from amazon. It was £449 last week but they have increased the price on amazon now. Its crazy bright even with the light on and on the normal white wall without any alr screen. In the dark its just amazing. Only few things to note. You have to adjust the screen and zoom yourself manually instead unlike some other projectors which will auto adjust. But process is less than 20 seconds long. If you are permanently mounting it somewhere then its one time thing. Secondly, it doesn't have any google tv or anything installed so you will need either tv box or fire stick to watch the game. I can take few pictures for you tonight when I am watching Liverpool game. Third thing, it doesn't have wifi built in so if you are going to cast something from your phone or tablet then you will need cable. But if you are using tv box or fire stick then that will not be a problem because firestick and tv have wifi. hope this helps.

I have exactly the same projector. It was £380 in uk during the prime day so it might be back to that deal during black Friday or something. Projector is crazy bright even. Even during daytime with moderate light, it's watchable. Only few things to note. You have to adjust the screen and zoom yourself manually instead unlike some other projectors which will auto adjust.

It's good. Many of us have been down your road, till we understand that there's always better projectors that can fit a budget. I had a 720, moved up to be BenQ 1080p, and an Epson 1080p. I'm thrilled with these two and one day, when I get some cash, I'll try a 4K. But you're doing good. And they won't be as loud.

I have used the Epson - Home Cinema 1080 1080p 3LCD Projector for years. It's great for that scale of wall, as long as you have a decent toss distance (that's always the determining factor). Sometimes I have to break my design up into smaller pieces and toss each section with the projector in a new location - but with proper registration marks (on the wall and the artwork) it works like a charm. I have also been having luck with the Meta Quest 3 headset. It's not my go-to for highly detailed portions, but for more organic, forgiving shapes - and for blocking in rough proportions - it's a great supplement to my Epson.

Much cheaper though and at 15 feet he has to work with the throw distance to screen size is more than adequate but yeah I diddnt realize that’s non user replaceable lamp honestly that’s a huge bummer , I have a little bit older epson hc1080 and I love it I think I spent 400 on it refurbed op if you can find one of those

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

You want to focus on getting the best image quality for your budget. Most start with a decent 1080p projector and upgrade from there as budget and need allows. Sound is another separate part of the puzzle. If I were starting today, I'd be looking at an epson home cinema 1080. I started on the 1040 and ran that for 6 years before I upgraded to a 4k unit it's crazy bright for the money and I only had to replace the lamp once in that time. I managed to nearly double the lamp's expected life, which I found to be impressive. Also you should consider a decent screen for it eventually as no wall is a great surface to project onto. I used a cinegrey 5d screen for my high ambient light room. Lastly, sound, you have some options here. I started with a used stereo Teac amplifier for about $30 on eBay, with two used tannoy book shelf speakers. I initially used Bluetooth but the audio delay was too much so I used a USB amp from my computer, which had a headphone jack and connected to the amp with and RCA to headphone jack. Eventually I bought an AVR and ran my audio over HDMI and am building my own 7.2.4 atmos setup. Welcome to the Rabbit hole of money and neverending upgrades!

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.
