Customer Review: A Fantastic Product!!!
Why pay high prices for other cables when Eforcity products work perfectly? I ordered the cable on Tuesday, and it was delivered on Thursday. I connnected the Tivo to an HP LCD TV, and the picture was the best it's ever been.
Customer Review: GREAT PRODUCT! WHY PAY MORE?!
After seeing the outrageous prices being charged in local stores for hdmi cables I decided to check amazon. I bought this cable for my 1080p, 120 hz 42" LCD tv to use with my HD upscaling DVD player. It works great. My pictures are crystal clear in HD. I don't see why anyone would want to pay the store price for one of these. In the end all the cable are the same (rubber and metal) so why pay mark up. Very content. Would recommend to anyone.


A projector can transform your family's home theater experience. When you are able to watch a movie on an 8-10 foot screen you can't help but get immersed in the action and experience things you have never experienced before.

But is a high definition projector the right choice for everyone? There are some obvious considerations such as room layout and whether you have a place to hang a large screen, whether you are able to ceiling mount a projector and where your seating is placed in relation to the screen. While they are important, probably the most important thing to consider when deciding if a home HD projector is right for you is the lighting in your viewing environment.

The quality of the image that the high definition projector is directly affected by the amount of ambient light that is in your viewing environment. The more light in the room, the more difficult it will be for the projector to produce a sharp picture with deep blacks and good shadow details.

The amount of ambient light will affect the lumens needed (brightness needed), the size of the image that you can project, as well as the distance from the screen that you can place your projector.

The best viewing environment for a high definition projector is one where there is complete light control. A basement for example is a great place for a home theater with a projector because you can turn out the lights and be in complete darkness. On the other hand if you have a living room with several door ways and windows you will want to seriously consider whether a home HD projector is the right choice for you.

Because you can not control the light in this type of environment you will need to do one of several things:

  1. Be satisfied with a washed out picture lacking in detail and contrast
  2. Increase your budget substantially to ensure you get a high definition projector with a significantly high lumen output to ensure a bright picture and even then there will be some tradeoffs in quality. Think about your local cinema. They always have the room darkened in order to produce the best image possible.
  3. Decide to be satisfied with an LCD or Plasma screen, even though they may be smaller then the screen size you were hoping for. An LCD especially is known for its ability to produce a bright image even in areas of bright lights.

High definition projectors have come a long way in the last few years in their ability to produce stunning images. They have continued to offer brighter output and higher contrast ratios while at the same time lowering their prices. So if you have an area where you have at least some ability to control the light in your room a home HD projector is certainly worthy of consideration.
