InFocus X10 Projector

Large screen TVs are phat and all, but ask any movie buff and they’ll still tell you that nothing beats a good projector. The InFocus X10 aims to make a splash in helping you construct your own home cinema system, and it won’t break the bank either at £1,099. Features of the X10 include :-

• Native contrast ratio of 2,500:1 (7,500:1 with the iris turned on)
• Full HD resolution (1,920 x 1,080)
• 2m HDMI cable
• HDMI, DVI, component, composite and S-Video inputs
• Auto-adjusting color gamut and black levels

One major drawback would be the lamp life of approximately 2,000 hours – a far cry from a plasma TV’s rating of 100,000 hours, not to mention the high cost of replacement bulbs. Still, if it makes you feel better, the X10 will come with a 2-year warranty for the unit with a 6-month lamp replacement scheme.
