I am wondering if getting a front projector for my HT space is worth it or if I would benefit more from one of the new 3 chip DLP television set. The front projector I am considering is the Sony Ruby. I only have 65-75 inches for the screen on my wall because I need to keep the speakers at least 3 feet out from the side walls.
Assuming the worst case scenerio is it worth it? My other option is buying a 60 or 65 inch 3 chip DLP so I still can get 1080p at full HD resolution, the highest resolution is a necessity.
Is it a waste of money for me to buy the Ruby and only use it for 65-75 inches of wall space since the big advantage of the front projector is a much larger screen? Is the worst case scenerio of 65 inches too small for the Ruby anyway?
I would really appreciate any input into my situation. My only considerations are my need for full HD resolution (1920x1080) and prevention of screen burn in since I will be playing the Xbox360 and using the computer on it as well sometimes.
Here are my HT components to date:
Bryston SP1.7 Preamp-Processor
Bryston 9B SST
Denon DVD-5910
HDTV Satellite and Tivo Receiver
Xbox360
High-end Game PC (Self-Built)
B&W 802Ds (pair)
I will have the speakers a foot or so closer to the side wall when I upgrade my TV.
