Sony VPLAW15 BRAVIA Home Theater 720p LCD Front Projector Review

Available at Amazon Check Price Now!

I read some of the other reviews on amazon and noticed that some people had some problems with their projector, and had to have it repaired. We bought ours almost a year ago and haven’t had any problems. The projector also has around 1300 hours of use, and just today it asked me to replace the filter (it comes with a replacement filter, now I just have to find it). I realize sony doesn’t post an official lamp life, but using the lamp on high power it hasn’t begun to degrade the pic quality at all yet. I’m starting to think that we shouldn’t have bought the warranty, I think it cost around 0 for a few years but I can’t remember (but you should probably still buy it to be safe). It does come with a 2 year warranty from sony, but it’s just not as convienent.
Now here’s the negative part. I could not imagine watching cable with this projector. I don’t have cable, because I don’t care for it. If I like a show, I rent the season from netflix. It does not operate very well in a very bright room. If you use the lamp on high like I do, you can get away with it during the day with the curtains pulled and the lights on (sunlight is a little too much for it). I just couldn’t see someone watching the game with their buddies in the dark, tripping over stuff to grab a beer or a chicken wing.
It does work very well during the day with the lights on, but it really shines at night. I’ve havn’t seen a 720p lcd/plasma that can top this picture when you watch something in high def at night with no lights on. I have a friend with a 1080p plasma and I can just barely see a difference, not to mention my screen is 30 inches bigger than his (and he spent more money).
The reason this projector works so well for me, and not for other people, is because I don’t watch TV. I use it for games and movies. I don’t have time to watch tv shows because my girlfriend and I live on our own, we both work and go to college full time. The game systems we have are the wii and the xbox 360. The wii doesn’t support an hd signal, but if you use a component cable you can sqeeze a little more quality out of it (yea, it’s dissapointing). But the 360 looks amazing, and up to this point, most 360 games deliver 720p anyway. And if they support 1080p, the vplaw15 converts it to 720p(this means you can use blue ray too) I love playing fps’s like halo or cod4 with this thing.
The last thing I’m going to ramble about is playing standard dvds. I’ve seen the upconvert dvd players at the store that make playing dvd’s look like hd. Well this projector upconverts them to 720p the best it can. I can’t beleive how great these “stone age technology” dvds look on this thing, even when blown up to 80 inches!
And for those who are wondering what screen i use, I got the deal when they were giving away the sony dynaclear screen for free with the projector, and it looks perfect, except its supposed to be used on the floor. So we just folded the legs up and put it on our tv stand, while attaching it to the wall. The complaint I have for the screen is that it came with some minor wrinkles that weren’t noticable. But over time they became noticeable during very bright, white scenes in movies and games.
One last thing, obviously a good suround sound is definetly recommended. I have powerful system with 2 subwoofers.

Available at Amazon Check Price Now!

I had originally planned to get a Panasonic plasma 50 inch. I had 3 sony’s before and all had great pictures and i didn’t want risk getting less quality. In came the46 XBR. I bought it as a floor model and saved a ton of money. I hooked it up in 10 minutes. The picture at first was great but it was very dim. I called sony the next day and they said to turn off the light sensor. POW. The picture went from great to incredible. It was bright, sharp, and 3D like. Cable is terific and Blue Ray’s are stunning. I put in I Robot and the images looked like I was on the movie set watching it get filmed. The sound is great and sounds like you are in the threatre.
