Sharp XR-32X DLP Projector

1080i content looks astounding on this projector. I use it for business sometimes, but mostly for home theater. HDCP will let you watch copy protected movies and content with no problems through the DVI-D connection. It is bright enough to use in a room with ambient lighting. Typical Sharp high quality.

Very sharp picture. I didn't look at many projectors in person, but can't imagine that you'll beat the quality for the price.

Great product. Quick delivery. No complaints. Easy to manage and navigate through its product manual. Quick set up. Beautiful showing of films etc. Good picture quality, color and clarity.

I just tested on 1080p on Xbox 360 and the quality was great! Awesome quality for a low price. High approved!

I recently purchased the Sharp XR-32X DLP Projector new. It performs very well. One of the great features is that it can project 1080P and 1080I images. If there was one Con for this projector is that the amount of zoom is a little weak. If it had more zoom, I could always fill up my screen no matter what screen resolution I'm projecting.

Awesome projector for the price. Replaced an XR-20X with the XR-32X and could not be happier!! Awesome resolution and brightness; even in a multi-windowed living room!

This unit is one of the most popular 720p projectors on the market. It combines light weight with great picture and brightness. Lamp life is average for the industry at 2000 hours. It replaces my 2001 Sharpvision model which is huge and far less capable. I wish it had HDMI connectivity but I've been told I can buy an adapter the interfaces with the DVI input. The $650 price point makes a really great home theater within reach of most.

This unit will blow you away. I have one. I was so happy with the performance I bought a 2nd just to store it should my first one break. The focus and intensity of the picture are stunning and the unit is well made.

It has more than adequate brightness for some contrast enhancing screen techniques that can be used such as making your screen out of darken cloth versus white white. I did build my own screen using grey t-shirt fabric from the fabric store, a 120" wide 2x4 frame is the box the t-shirt material is wrapped around. I then did something that I don't think anybody has ever done. the T-shirt material is fairly thin. So Using a darker material I found about 40% of the light would pass thru the material. I took some streetglo reflective sheeting www.streetglo.net and attached the back side of this material to the back side of the screen. On the back side of the streetglo sheeting is the bare reflector base that is used on road signs and other outdoor reflectors like stop sings, miles to destination, etc. It's way too reflective to use as a screen but on the back side of this medium grey t-shirt material the projector light hits the cloth, lights it up,then does a 2nd extra bright reflection off the streetglo vinyl backing. I would describe this as an interactive reflector. The grey gives the good blacks and the streetglo vinyl gives a bright boost. I ended up with a screen you could watch TV on in daylight with the blinds in the window open and the projector still in economy mode. I wrote a lenghty article about this at a place called Home Theatre Spot but you'll have to search for it. There are pictures there of both the projector and it's function in my bar room. You can see both a daylight shot and a night shot of the unit.

You can also buy a ready made screen for an unbeliveable $80 if you shop hard. This was my first choice and the screen was 100" wide. It looked fantastic but in the day we had to all but paint our windows black. Since I'm retired I am home in the day and like to watch tv whenever I want. The custom made screen was also made for very little and it uses some 6" pvc plumming pipe for a colum effect. It looks quite "ROYAL" like a $5500.00 system with the screen I built and the screen was build for about $60.00 but that will go up quite a bit if you use the reflective decal materials on the back side such as I did. However even with that extra expense it is a better screen than the very pricey and professional high gain models selling for almost a thousand bucks.

Getting back to the projector, Sharp is barely known in the home theatre circles. Some internet stores tried to talk me out of buying this model claiming it's not an hd unit or that it can't do wide screen. It does wide screen and it fills the screen as it should, and it's great HD. You will be tickled pink with this projector. Get one!

I bought this projector to replace my Epson 720C. The resolution in HD and the brightness are superb. The lamp is good for 4000 hours. I recently boght a new Pioneer receiver with 7 channel sound, the two units make an excellent home theater system. I use the two every day, my HD TV is raely used.

menu's and options are great and I can't believe how bright and clear the display is. the dvi connector was kinda of hard to find and I wish it came with hdmi input but the clarity makes up for it. I used a silverscreen paint and the picture jumps off the wall. I dont think theres a need for a screen. the fan is pretty quiet and I always run it on ecco mode. This mode is more than bright enough and it helps your bulb to last longer.

It is a great product. I was very nervous about purchasing a "refurbished" projector, but I love it. It projects a 113" screen at 17' and the IT tech that hooked it up tells me I got a great deal.

This is an awesome projector. It is a decently small size but plays a great picture.

Cons: gets really hot, no HDMI, no carrying case
Pros: great picture,1080p resolution,has speakers, HDTV ready, super bright

I would recommend this projector any day to anyone. It was around $500 and is a better option for the size than a normal tv. This projector is bright enough to play in the day with minimal light control. Of course you want to take out direct sunlight but it doesnt have to be a lightless cave. This projector gives off enough light to see what you're doing.
