    Looking at buying this projector
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Epson-EH-TW5650-Full-Lumens-Projector-White/dp/B07MLJMBV1/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8&th=1

    What do people think - reviews are decent. Main reason is for big screen 3D films
    If there is something better and it costs a little more I'm open to suggestions but my budget for projector and screen is 1000 euro
    (Only 1 left in stock so don't buy it!)

    Also looking for an 80" pull down screen with white trim but having a hard time finding one (just so it blends in with the ceiling, all seem to be black) - can anyone recommend one or a site to buy one from (that doesn't charge an arm and a leg to deliver)

    That’s a very decent projector for the money - you could try asking Richersounds for a quote, it’s currently £699 on their website, https://www.richersounds.ie/p-202981-epson-ehtw5600-3d-lcd-projector-1080p-hd-ready.aspx and they should be able to supply a suitable screen too. They have a dedicated forum on Boards here: https://www.boards.ie/ttforum/1105/1 - alwats worth asking for a deal.

    Cheers.

    You can just project onto the wall.

    Projector looks good but read a review or two first. 37dB seems a little loud to me.

    Wall not possible, seems in the range of most projectors for noise
    If not for the 3D could expand my search but limited options under 1000 euro
