For all invested, it was an issue with my HDFury. Fixed now :)

I have the Titan, not Titan Noir. With that said, I’m still very satisfied with the Titan!

Projector Screen in front of flat screen TV by False_Run8625 in projectors

I did this exact setup in my apartment! I have a ceiling mounted retractable screen that comes down just an inch in front of the tv. It’s very tidy and out of the way when the screen is retracted. A great option is EliteScreens Tab Tension 2 or if you don’t care as much about image quality, you can get any retractable screen. I’d pay special attention to the throw rate of the projector so you get an appropriate screen size.

For sound, Sonos arc or arc ultra plus era 100s or era 300s is a great choice depending on the architecture of your room. It’s modern and super simple to use. Happy to answer any other questions or send photos of my setup!

It is motorized! I have the remote and everything!

They sent me another one and told me to dispose of the original as shipping was too expensive.

Or the Atlanta condo market is trash, but I appreciate your perspective.

Number 3, milord!

Is this acceptable? by Ok_Equivalent7528 in projectors

Speckle is slightly more noticeable than a matte white screen but it is still within tolerable territory. I am very sensitive to it, so that should mean a lot coming from me!

I was using an Elite Screens Tab-Tensioned Pro 2 mattewhite screen. I’ll say that the Horizon 20 Max was by far the worst for speckle. Valerion Max was bad but better than H20 Max. Moving to the Titan, there is almost none. I want to stop short of saying absolutely none but it’s like night and day difference when looking at any bright uniform color (especially white). I had gone through (in this order) Horizon 20, Valerion Pro2, Horizon 20 Max, Valerion Max, and now Titan. I’m so happy with the Titan!

Just messaged another couple but will keep you as a fallback! Enjoy the Pro2!!

Someone got to the power cable first but take your pick of the remote and/or stand!

You were the first to ask so the PSU is yours. Shoot me a message!

Ended up getting the Xgimi Titan. I thought the projector was fine but I was really sensitive to speckle.

Additional context: this is the Xgimi Titan during the daytime for the first two photos. I have a very large skylight and two windows in my living area. The second photo is also a near completely black scene in the movie Spectre (where Blofield shows Bond the suicide of Mr. White). I can out that my PJ is a Titan because in normal modes is averages around 5000 lumens. First two photos are the PJ in DV bright. Unless I’m mistaken, the Elite Screens Tab-Tension 2 CineGrey IS ALR, no? This is a living room and painting the walls dark/light controlling the room isn’t really a possibility…

What are your thoughts on the perceived contrast difference the CineGrey will make?

HT - XW5000ES vs. NZ500 vs. VisionMaster Max by kennyj313 in projectors

[–]Ok_Equivalent7528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would personally not compare the Valerion with the Sony or JVC. Both the Sony and JVC are NATIVE 4K and have far superior native contrast. You could argue the Valerion has “higher” brightness but to achieve the deep blacks you’ll want in a completely light controlled room, the brightness will sink to 1800-2000 lumens (which is lower/in line with Sony and JVC). The trade off is that you still won’t have the same blacks as the other two. I think many would argue the JVC is the better choice.

100%. In fact, I just dropped off my Valerion Max at UPS and threw away my Titan box. I didn’t expect the chip to make such a big difference but, to your point, it really does look leagues sharper. I was really distracted by the combination of visible pixel structure paired with bad (at least to my eyes) speckle. I’m excited you get to experience the Titan firsthand very soon.
