As a total projector newbie, I did some research on reputed review sites as well as amazon and came up with the Optoma20. It works fantastically well. i do not have a receiver but i just hooked it up to a pair of computer spearks through the projector’s audio output. Awesome for DVDs, extremely sharp and bright color, and that’s saying something: we live in a loft apartment where it is impossible to black out the entire space, and we have a lot of light pollution at night through the loft windows via the busy street outside. It is still possible to watch movies comfortably. one day i suspect people will start putting lawn chairs outside our window and watch with us.

I decided to take the leap into the projection world after a power surge thru my satelite cable took my plasma hdtv out. I have always wanted to create a home theather, but never could justify it when I had a perfectly good tv already. Now that I have this little baby, there is no going back! I had done a lot of research on projectors, and this one was by far the best you can find for the money. Decided to purchase a 100″ fixed screen from EliteScreens(they are the cheapest) to finish the room up. The combination of this projector and the screen is simply amazing. I am like a kid at the candy store everytime I watch a blu-ray movie. Seeing movies in 1080p at this size is stunning! I have read other reviews about the projector not being able to produce deep dark “blacks” This may be true, but if your not an absolute fanatic about that, its not all that noticeable!
My only warning about this item is to not turn the “Image AI” setting on. For some reason the sensor doesn’t respong quick enough and you can be in a whole different scene before it kicks in. Ex…..start out watching a night scene and it changes to a daylight scene the projector will overcompensate the daylight scene because it is pushing settings for the night scene. Overall not a big deal….just keep it off!
For under $1000 you can’t go wrong with this projector. Amazon shipped it immediately and I had it up and running in no time. If you happen to be looking for a screen too I suggest you look into elitescreens also.

First things first, I am very picky customer. However, this is my first projector and I’m not a videophile.
I was torn between a 55″ HDTV and projectors in general, until my friend set one up in his basement. I purchased the HD20, a Draper 106″ screen, Sony HTS S370 Surround; all to go with my Playstation 3.
Now that I have projector – there’s no going back. I will never buy a Plasma/LCD/LED TV ever again.
For under $1500, I now have 106″ of HD & Surround Sound awesomeness. 1080P looks AMAZING.
Optoma HD20 Pros:
-Great value
-Excellent 1080P picture quality
-Vivid colors
-Good brightness
-Easy setup, easy operation
-Quiet operation (I read reviews that said fan noise was a problem; not the case for me)
-Quick startup, rapid shutdown
Cons:
-Black levels could be better. Maybe should have bought a gray screen instead of white?
-The backlit remote buttons are insanely bright
All in all, I couldn’t be more satisfied.

Bought it a week back. Fabulous clarity and precision. I hope it is as good as it is now even when I take it around for my presentations on my official trips overseas!

No need to go over board. Save your money for Audio equipment cause this little beauty does it job and very well I might Add. Proud to have purchased such a fine product at such a low price.
Update: I have to walk in front or under the projector to use the remote and it is a hassle when we watch from the rear of the projector mounted on the ceiling and to walk in the middle of a crowd to use my remote for the projector is kind of embarrassing. I am wondering if a mirror on my front wall would work and need to contact the factory about this issue. Other than this the projector works and looks great.
