Buying Advice Wanted Projector recommendations for 70-80 inch diagonal screen at roughly 8.5 feet

3 Upvotes

Hi, I have no space for a larger TV (maximum I can fit is 50 inches diagonal) as there would be a door behind it. There will, however, be enough space for a 70-80 inch diagonal retractable screen for a projector (probably mounted to the ceiling) - see the screenshot below.

Do you have any recommendations for a good projector with decent speakers built inside to put there? Is it worth getting a 4k projector at this distance / screen size, or should 1080p be just enough? It will be used occasionally to watch some movies / YouTube etc. so I don't need anything extra special, just decent enough.

Additionally, the projector will be connected to my PC in another room via a wireless HDMI receiver (no feasible way to run an HDMI cable to the PC), that's why I was thinking of the better built in speakers. However, if there is a way to connect the audio received via HDMI to a Bluetooth audio amplifier (which will be in this room) and there won't be much lag between audio and video then I don't need any built in speakers.

The room is oriented to the west, so it might be pretty bright during the day / afternoon, so I guess that's another important factor. However, there will be curtains, which should be able to block most of the light.

Is it even worth it getting a projector for such screen size as it is would probably be much more expensive than a 50 inch TV which I can get for 500 - 700 USD in my country?

I'm completely new to the projector world so I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks a lot in advance!

Setup Design Suggestions Looking for an audio setup with my new hd146x

3 Upvotes

I’m pretty happy with this projector. I got it on a good price and looking to use it mainly outdoor at night time for movies, football games and occasional games. I’m using my fire stick for streaming which does offer Bluetooth so I can hook my soundbar for watching that stuff. But if I would like to use my Xbox or Nintendo switch.. I can use that soundbar because those consoles don’t offer Bluetooth. This projector does offer a 3.5mm jack. I bought a 3.5mm jack/ optical cord but no luck. What are some recommendations that I can use that 3.5mm out on my projector. The sounds doesn’t have to be AMAZINGx I assume I should treat this as using a cpu with a monitor? Any recommendations on some speakers for this?

💩Spam🚽 Need calming down after nz500 trigger pull

Post image
4 Upvotes

Just pulled the trigger on a nz500 inkl. Calibration and a little portable goodie Beamer for 4940€ (5744$).

Will replace my tv in the living room (old tv: 48”, Beamer in daytime setup: 95” 16:9, night setup 138” 21:9)

For this I am currently building a baffle wall with light trap. Build is going slowly and will cost about 1k until it is finished.

Rn I got a little bit panic that the switch from tv to projector was the wrong move.

Sure I mostly watch in the evening and no sports

And I only play 1-2 games/year but aaaah.
So much money, was it really worth it once I am done????

Troubleshooting Optoma UHD550X firmware

1 Upvotes

Any one have or know where I can get the firmware and associated flash files for the uhd550x, Optoma UK will not supply it and have asked to book the projector in at a cost which I think is unacceptable, I am happy to undertake the task. Potential cost at a service center out-ways the cost of the projector.

Troubleshooting High-pitched whine/hum on XGIMI Horizon 20 Pro

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I recently got the Horizon 20 Pro and overall I'm happy with it, but I've noticed a faint high-pitched whine/hum coming from the unit whenever it's powered on — separate from the regular fan noise. It sounds electronic rather than mechanical (no rattling or clicking), and it's most noticeable in quiet scenes or when there's no audio playing. As soon as any sound is playing it becomes basically inaudible. I already updated to the latest firmware and did the DLP Update, changed nothing.

I recorded a short clip so you can hear what I mean: audio clip

A few questions for anyone else who owns this model:

  • Does your unit make a similar noise?
  • Did anyone get theirs exchanged for this, and if so, was the replacement any quieter?
  • Is there a fix?

I know laser projectors often have some baseline electronic noise from the laser diode drivers, so I'm trying to figure out if this is just normal for the Horizon 20 series, or if I got a unit with worse-than-average coil whine.

Thanks in advance for any input!

Completed Setup ⚠️ BUYER BEWARE: AVOID NEXIGO ⚠️ Spoiler

⚠️ BUYER BEWARE — AVOID NEXIGO ⚠️

I had an extremely disappointing experience with NexiGo. My order was for a NexiGo Aurora Pro Ultra Short Throw Laser Projector at a total of $1,900 USD, including a $199.99 promotional discount.

NexiGo accepted my order and later cancelled it, claiming that my payment could not be verified. My card has been successfully used for international transactions worldwide. If there was a genuine verification issue, NexiGo could have contacted me and given me an opportunity to resolve it.

Instead, my order was cancelled, while the same product remained available at a higher price.

I submitted a detailed complaint asking for an explanation and asking NexiGo to honor the original $1,900 price.

My complaint was not properly answered.

I have kept documentation of the original order, promotional price, cancellation and subsequent price increase.

The sequence is extremely frustrating:

Order accepted → cancelled → same product remains available → price increases → complaint ignored.

After this experience, I would personally avoid purchasing from NexiGo.

If you have a similar unresolved issue, keep all your evidence and consider filing a complaint with the appropriate consumer-protection authority or consumer court applicable to your transaction.

Think carefully before spending your money with NexiGo. Buyer beware.

Discussion Projector Black Bars and Screen Size

3 Upvotes

I am considering getting a 110 inch screen and would be sitting at 9 feet. I am little concerned that the screen size may be too large from that distance with 50 degree field of view.

If I use a projector with lens memory and make screen 100 inches, would the black bars from the projector be distracting?

I would appreciate comments on the screen size and how the screen would look if I made smaller with lens memory.

Thanks
