If you are a movie lover, you will know that no matter how large your TV is, how comfy your house is the experience is never the same as to going to a movie theater. But, not to worry, today we will tell you simple ways you can enjoy watching your favorite movies at home while having the same theater experience.
It’s a myth that projectors are much more expensive than a TV. However, before you buy one there are certain things you need to know. Do a proper research before you buy one and know exactly what it is that you will need to fully enjoy it.
While reading its specification and instruction there are some keywords you must pay close attention too, such as: lumens, contrast and brightness. To truly enjoy watching a movie at home with a projector, make sure it has a good brightness and that it’s a silent operating device. Many usually don’t know or forget that the brightness affects the color reproduction.
As for the sound, it is important that you make sure it operates in silence. Having a projector making sounds during a movie could be annoying, make sure it doesn’t exceed 26 decibels. And as golden rule, remember the cheaper and compact it is, the more it will compromise the sound. Those who have a bigger enclosure are less noisy and normally have a cooling system.
Before you buy one, it is important you know that you want and where you want to use it. Do you want to use it in your office, school, your home? If you buy a good projector when optimizing its brightness still images and videos look better.
A very important thing your projector must have is a HDMI port. In fact, the more it has the better. They are great tools to control its luminesce. The lens is also very important. This will determine the sharpness, contrast and shapes. You must be able to regulate all these depending on the required distance.
The biggest mistake many make is buying a projector once they have selected a screen. Sometimes the image does not fit the screen or is too small, properly measure the distances before purchasing these products.
A new projector must have HD resolution, which is about 1920 x 1080 pixels, support HDTV, blu-rays, consoles and laptops. You must also choose a aspect ratio 16: 9.
As for the sound, it is advisable to buy external speakers. Many projectors don’t sound very loud; their speakers are usually small, reason why external speakers come in very handy.
So, are you ready to enjoy movies comfortably at home?
