I used to be into movie night in a big way and believe that from 2008 to 2012 was the best time ever for renting awesome blurays. In 2009 we finally got affordable HT with great specs coming out from all vendors and the market exploded with basement cinema taking off.

Since 2013 I started losing interest with projectors having nothing new or exciting and 3D was great for HT on dlp but there was no content.

Now Optoma just released details of there new 4K unit with plenty of brightness and a msrp of $2700!!! Fantastic! I have been long awaiting a new 4k display over 65 inch for under 3k and its now here.

Is there anything that has you excited with this years 2017 CES?

    Let's hope ups or your drones don't go pick it up when you decide to buy one.
