"Generally speaking, TV projectors cost less than LCD tvs. However, the market for LCD tvs is much larger and often a much more popular decision for home entertainment. Potential buyers should consider their options carefully before purchasing either."
LCD projectors are by far the best
Staples offers several styles and brands of LCD projectors online. They also carry DLP projectors which is a newer technology.
LCD projectors are used to project video or images onto a flat screen. The technology has almost replaced the older slide projectors or over head projectors. The picture is much clearer than on old technology. A common use of LCD projectors is to project song lyrics onto a screen during church services or to display powerpoint slides during a college lecture.
LCD projectors and DLP projectors
Projectors can produce a larger image at a much lower cost than a different display technology of the same size (lcd, led, plamsa, etc...)
Yes, LCD projectors come with a variety of inputs. Depending on the age or manufacturer's intended use, you'll be able to find LCD projectors available with inputs ranging from VGA and coaxial all the way to Component, DVI and HDMI.
LED tvs are far more energy efficient than LCD tvs, although they do tend to be more expensive. Also, LED picture quality is typically better than LCD pictures.
Plasma televisions are slightly more expensive than LCD televisions, but they are relatively quite close. However, plasma televisions aren't available smaller than 42 inches, so size is also something you should consider.
LCD projectors themselves can last for years and years and years if properly cared for. The bulb, however does have a finite lifespan and is very expensive to replace... LCD projector bulbs are usually rated for their average expected lifespan. This if often in the range of around 2000 hours of use. Most bulbs will continue to work well past this, although there may be a reduction in brightness.
A LCD projector projects the image to a screen in front of it like a slide projector projects the images of slides onto a screen while a LCD tv projects from behind the screen like a large TV, the image coming to the screen from behind it rather from in front of it. That is basically the only difference. You can usually get a much larger image from a LCD projector than from a LCD tv. Projectors usually require more planning and installation events and you can not just pick it up and move it to another room easily.
The major advantage of an LCD projector is that ,the images are projected much sharper by LCDs.Their another advantage is they can be outfitted to any projection purposes,from portable projectors to large projectors.
LCD projectors can be purchased from stores such as Best Buy, Visions and other such electronics stores. They can also be purchased through on-line stores such as Amazon.
