HD Projector for PS4

Super Sidious

Hi,

Looking for a 1080 HD Projector for PS4 gaming.

Using a large white wall to project onto in a with dark curtains and can be quite dark with lights off.

3D not necessary, don't need to wall mount it or anything, will sit on table at back of room.

Basically just want something with brilliant visuals for gaming and no lag between pressing a button on the controller and it registering on screen.

Can you recommend a projector for 600 euro budget and 900 Euro budget please, +delivery to dublin/5 year guarantee.

Also could you recommend a Sound Bar to go with the set up, noise is a factor as I live in an apartment, but would like to see the options that I could run without p1ssing off the neighbours.

Cheers.

Hi Flynner.

Can you let me know the size of the screen that you are looking for and the distance back from the screen that you need/want to mount the projector ?

The one that I would suggest would be the Optoma HD131. This was launched at £749 and is now £644.

This is a great projector and would work out at 785 Euro but I would need to check the throw distance for you.

There will always be a little lag for the projector to respond to the IR command, so I wouldn't expect it to be instant.

The 5 year on this would be 78 Euro with delivery at €14.99.

On the soundbar, are you looking to mount it on the wall, table and do you have any other features on the bar that you would like ?

Well it's a sitting room wall, so the viewing area would be 10x6 maybe, can be bigger.

Wall to lens can be anything from 4 feet to 12 feet, it will either be on a table below the wall, or on a table 12 feet back, somewhat flexible when it comes to position.

With the soundbar, I want something like surround sound/5.1 for gaming, but without the disturbance to neighbours, kind of want sound effects from helicopters or whatever behind me etc. I suppose something with little bass as the vibrations would cause problems.

The sound isnt a deal breaker really, but would be nice.

Thanks for taking the time.

So to break it down:

                                                                                 Projector
                                                                               /               \
                                                                                   Couch
                                                                             /                    \
                                                                                  Soundbar
                                                                           \                       /
                                                                                    Wall

Thanks for the reply.

On the projector front : 

The 131 would be capable of producing a 92" screen if you are 10-12 feet back.

The only issue here is that if you don't have a screen then the Optoma 92" screen would be £119.95 / 145 €. This combined with the projector would essentially blow the budget.

If you don't need a screen then this would allow a few £'s for a soundbar.

Unfortunately surround sound soundbars are quite few and far between and the only one that I would suggest is the Yamaha YSP2200 which works brilliantly and is priced at £629.95 / €760.

If your budget is 900 Euro and you need a screen, projector and soundbar, then the only way around this that I can see is to not go for a 1080p projector. This kind of defeats the purpose as the PS4 is a 1080p device.

I would suggest : 

HD131
Yamaha YAS101
Optoma 92" Screen
Delivery - €1150

I know this is above the budget but let me know what you make of this or if you would like a quote with a lesser specified projector.
