Closest I found so far you can consider

then fan noise is negligible unless you are sitting directly with head beside it.


but 1500 ANSI only so you need ALR solution for screen.

else wait for laser 4k projectors to come out


beware, once you go projector you’ll never go back.

This one mount ceiling one~?

Sincere opinion - just get the biggest TV you can reasonably afford.

Projectors are too finicky - the lamps got life limit one, the lumens not bright enough to use in a lit room, must find a good spot to mount the projector, must find a good spot to put the screen or if projecting onto a wall must make sure the wall surface is matt and ideally white etc.

 

[Clearnfc]

how much is the projector replacement bulb?

Usually $200+

A brand new bulb can mostly last around 5000hrs, enought for over 1500 movies. Even if you watch 2 movies everyday, thats over 2yrs....

My usage is mainly is movies, gaming, tv show. which one will you pick?





projector pros: bigger screen at least 110inch , cheaper at >$1.5k

projector cons: noisy fans, the heat from the lamp, need a dark room or dim room





Tv pros: picture quality, room of any lighting

Tv cons: expensive, smaller screen

Projector mind the electric consumption and bulb change. High possiblity of tech failure than tv due to heat generated

Yes, with TS's budget, its best to get the biggest TV TS can afford.
