Dalite Veneer Model B Matte White Fabric 120 Inch Diag. Mahogany Projection Screen - Dalite 73249

Looks nice. I was worried that a pull-down screen would look cheap or would curve in on the sides, but this looks very nice and has worked wonderfully. It's a little tricky to get the screen back up at first, but once you do it a few times, you'll be a pro. The price was definitely right on this screen too.Buy Dalite Veneer Model B Matte White Fabric 120 Inch Diag. Mahogany Projection Screen - Dalite 73249!

Dalite Designer Model B Fabric Case Frost Gray With White Caps 72 X 96 Inch Matte White Projection Screen - Dalite 73147

Having heard and read about DaLite in various places, I thought I would give them a try for my home theater set-up.

Ordered the screen and when I installed it carefully as per specifications (using professional gear including levels), I was sorely disappointed to see that the fabric did not hang properly and had ripples across the viewing surface.

Contacting DaLite service is not easy (despite their warranty) as they insist on your contacting the retailer and the retailer generally not understanding the problem or being sufficiently responsive. Anyway, finally they sent me a replacement screen.

I thought I would forgive and forget their initial defective shipment (after all, we all make mistakes). So, with positive thoughts, I opened and installed the second screen with again a lot of care and time.

Guess what - the problem was not only there, it was WORSE this time. This tells me that this company has a poorly controlled manufacturing process and their quality review is minimal to non-existent. It seems that being in a near monopoly situation does lead to complacency and shoddy standards. I would thus sadly recommend to all to look elsewhere for a quality product - and not waste significant amounts of time with installation and customer service over a poorly manufactured product.

Regards all...

P.S. In addition to the above fundamental issue, there is a major problem with retracting the screen - no matter how careful you are. Again, suggests a poor/basic design that has not been improved given their monopoly position.

Sony Grand WEGA KF-42WE610 42-Inch HDTV-Ready LCD Rear Projection TV

I have this tv. Apparently the optical engine on this thing goes at the 2 year point. Sony is very aware of the problem. Lucky for me I spent 340 bucks for an extended warantee. I would suggest you do the same. The optical engine costs $1100 to fix. Depending on your timing of when the thing breaks you could be out a tv for a while since this part gets backordered all the time.

I do love the picture on this tv but BUY THE WARANTEE...Buy Sony Grand WEGA KF-42WE610 42-Inch HDTV-Ready LCD Rear Projection TV!

Toshiba 72HM195 72-Inch Diagonal Theaterwide Integrated (1080p) HD DLP Rear Projection TV

We are extremely disappointed in this T.V. We've had it for a year and a half and have already replaced the lamp twice. Once it was under warranty, but this time we had to shell out the money out of our own pockets, and the lamps are not cheap. We found a "deal" for the lamp and "only" had to pay 180 dollars for it. Toshiba states that the lamp should last an average of 8000 hours, both times we were at about 1200-1500 hours of viewing. Wrote a letter to Toshiba with no response. Buyers beware, this T.V.requires a continued investment.Buy Toshiba 72HM195 72-Inch Diagonal Theaterwide Integrated (1080p) HD DLP Rear Projection TV!

Toshiba 42HM66 42-Inch 720p DLP HDTV

I love the TV itself, it is excellent in all aspects. As other reviewers have stated though, the bulb has only lasted up to one year and they are expensive. The first one was almost $400 installed. There will not be a second one which is available for $250. The TV is just under 2 yrs old. We thought this TV would be a less expensive second unit when we bought it at the same time as our LCD flat screen. This Toshiba has now cost a lot more. Buy Toshiba 42HM66 42-Inch 720p DLP HDTV!
