Thanks Steve, Wow, nice unit and screen. If I had the income I'd buy this. However, I just decided that I really really like the 2010, 70" Sharp Aquos 1080p TV that I saved from the recycle center and repaired myself several years ago. I'm so happy about the money I just saved from that one decision. In fact I might put all of my AV gear up for sale and to heck with this AV hobby/nightmare/keep up with the Jones'/time & money waster. Nobody home anymore, but me to make use of it anyway. Besides most new films suck. Godzilla Minus One was the best I have seen(and heard) so far this year.
I just bought one. Works great. Just don't have a screen yet, so projecting on a wall. Getting the optional 3d glasses later today (mine did not come with them). Have lots of 3d movies, so will be interesting to see how good the 3d is.
Looks great. How do you think this would perform on a woven AT screen compared to a similarly priced long throw in a blacked out dedicated home theater?
Not good. It needs a smooth screen or an ALR designed for UST. While it's a great projector and i was very impressed I wouldn't replace a long throw projector with it. Having the center behind an AT screen is a pretty big deal. IMO this is more for living rooms where you're already going to be using a center under a screen and you have to deal with lights on at times.
I replaced my Epson 6050 with a AWOL 3500, and I am using a Severtson 150" 16:9 microperf AT screen. Looks amazing, and easily the best 3D for home due to being a DLP. UST means you don't loose light compared to a long throw so HDR also benefits considerably.
Curious what happened to your new theater build? Did you finish it? Was looking forward to seeing a new REW vid for the new setup.

I went to the link and the 3d glasses don't come with it. Why do the reviews keep showing that they come with them?
The one I got sent for review had them in the box.

How does it compare to the ForMovie projector that was so popular last year?
It's Vastly Superior
I love mine. It’s in a dedicated room in my basement, no windows. I use a standard (no alr) 120” screen and it works just fine.
Hey I have a couple questions how would I go about contacting you or can I ask in the comments?
