Beats the Sony VPL-HW65ES
on February 26, 2016

I was very close to purchasing the Sony 65 when it was recommended that I take a look at this JVC X550(otherwise known as the RS400 only difference is the color of the zoom ring). Wow this projector is absolutely awesome. I thought the Sony 65ES had great black and color, but the JVC blows it away and it also has the HDCP/HDMI is 2.2 so more future proof and has HDR (essentially it makes the image more detailed and better color shades). Sony has neither. Now Sony has the edge when it comes to gaming as it has around 21ms lag compared to JVC's 100 ms with projector features turned off to achieve the 100 ms.
Plus if you shop around you can save a few hundred dollars on the JVC.
If gaming or at least online FPS aren't important to you definitely consider this. JVC won this year.

The "Real Bad Boyz"
on January 24, 2013

First off its hard to say a movie deserves 5 stars, when you watch this you will certainly agree its a 4 or 5. The movie is very funny but also very serious. Some romance but done where a guy can appreciate it. Very dramatic when things go down. Watch it with a friend or 2 and its a hell of a ride. Im not going to go into all sorts of details but to just give people a sense of how good this movie is. Definitely a movie I would have gone to the theatre to see if I had known how good it was. I liked how you felt like you were right there how they were working the cameras. Anyway short and sweet to the point- go see it. One of a few titles I can see buying as you will probably want to watch it again.
What's great about it: Every aspect of this movie delivers awesome
What's not so great: This would be a big fat N/A.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bugs need fixing
on January 21, 2013

The tivo stream is great now that you can bring your shows on the go and if you have a pad can watch your shows in rooms that dont have a tv. Especially if you want to watch the game while working in the garage. I think for $130 they should have added a slingbox type feature which would enable you to download your shows remotely or via cellular(then add a even lower resolution that would be cropped for mobile traveling).
*** Now the bad and why Tivo should look at this and get some fixes going or have their employees use this product to get faster feedback to them and make some fixes****.1) Every few times you start the app on your i device and try to download a show it will have to reconnect to the tivo stream as there is an error and this takes a minute. 2) When you play a show it will give an error playback 1-3 times before starting the show. 3) When you stop a show or your screen shuts off due to the time that you have set you have to start the show all over instead of being given the choice to RESUME- WHY THIS IS NOT AN OPTION I DONT UNDERSTAND. For these reasons I feel that it is still a beta product and they are charging a premium price for the device. If Tivo fixes this and adds a slingbox type feature without charging it would be a good purchase. Till then it should be $79 tops. If anyone else is having issues please post your comments so Tivo is aware. Dont get me wrong its a great compliment to the Tivo but they have some bugs and features to work out to make the experience even better.
What's great about it: Shows on the go
What's not so great: feels like a beta product currently

Perfect for our Theater
By beckster
We purchased this for our basement theater. Its been working great and love it. The only one issue, it doesn't like dark screens. We use a Home Theater PC with the projector and as long as we keep the windows NOT full screen we have no issues.

Unhappy
By Amymarie
Not happy with this product. Images are pixelated and sound is very choppy. Most of the time I have to turn the receiver off numerous times before I can get a clear picture/sound for a few minutes. Will be returning. Based on others reviews, I am hoping that I can get a new one and it will work fine. Perhaps this one was a lemon? Did this happen to anyone else?

These units work great. When you exchanged yours, how is the replacement unit working?
