INTRODUCTION
June, 2003 saw the delivery of my RUNCO CL-710 DLP front projector. It replaced my Sony VW10HT LCD front projector, which had served me well for over three years. During that time I had tweaked it to a point where the picture it produced exceeded my initial expectations. You may go HERE to see my experiences with the VW10HT. So why a sudden change to a DLP projector? My "game plan" for the future had been to keep the Sony for at least three or four more years and hope that 3 chip DLP projectors, or some equivalent technology in terms of performance, dropped to an affordable price range. But several things occurred which changed this. For one thing, single chip DLP technology made several advances which improved the picture and removed (for me) the "rainbow effect." For another, prices for DLP technology dropped at a quicker rate than anticipated. Most importantly, I won a Runco DLP projector on the 2002 HT cruise and was given the option to wait until the GEN3 HD-2 (Mustang) DLP chip was unveiled. This decision was a no-brainer. In other words, with apologies to Bob Barker, the price was right!
Now that the projector has arrived and is installed I'm ready to provide some observations regarding its installation, performance and a few other things. First, the INSTALLATION (click to continue).
