A few months ago, Optoma announced two new projectors, the GT-3000 and GT-7000, which were specifically designed for game consoles. Recently, Optoma has announced the release of these two projectors. The GT-3000 features a white chassis and displays a 2000:1 contrast ratio, 2300 ANSI lumens, and a SVGA (1280 x 1024) resolution. The GT-7000 is a little more powerful with a 4000:1 contrast ratio, 1600 ANSI lumens, and is HD-Ready. Unfortunately, Optoma has not announced whether the GT-7000 has 720p or full 1080p resolution. The main feature that comes with both models is the matching external speaker system that features four speakers and a subwoofer. The speaker system is not only able to be connected to the projector, but it is compatible for other electronics including DVD players and iPods. The GT-3000 and GT-7000 are currently available through the Optoma website; however, they are only available in the UK for now. The retail price for the GT-3000 is £349 ($535), while the GT-7000 retails for £499 ($766).
