...in with the new.

The image quality difference between my Sanyo PLV-Z2000 and this Panasonic AE4000 is downright staggering. Even with the lamp on ECO it is as bright as my plasma in the bedroom and for an LCD the black levels are simply superb. I honestly cannot recommend this projector enough, it has completely changed movies and gaming in the living room.

    bad **** and wickedly sharp!
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Thanks, man. :)

    My friends that have been over many many times before, came over tonight and when I fired up the new projector for the first time, their jaws literally dropped. The image is now so much brighter and pops so much more. They are now giving me crap for buying my plasma for my bedroom not too long ago. :p

    Ive been using the 3000 for alittle over a year now, couldn't be happier. What mode are you using, looks like normal. The wave form monitor is neat little gadget also.
