The Planar PD8150 was one of Planar’s top selling projectors. Recently the reviewers at Home Theater got their hands on the PD8150 to see how good it is. The PD8150 features 1000 ANSI lumens, a 15000:1 contrast ratio, and full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution. It also uses DLP display technology and comes with two HDMI inputs. The reviewers really enjoyed the excellent performance straight out of the box. They also thought the PD8150 has class-leading contrast and light output. They went on to say, “The PD8150 is one of the best front projectors I’ve had the chance to use in my theater. It has the best contrast of any DLP I’ve used to date and has image accuracy that you rarely see in the front-projector market. This is also one of the only DLP projectors that let you have both high light output and dark blacks for high contrast. This is a mix we rarely ever see from this segment of the market. Planar has done an amazing job with its first dip into the 1080p market, and once Planar resolves the clipping issue, this is a projector I would be happy to use as a reference display.”
