Best praise vs top criticism for NexiGo Aurora Pro
“I was gonna say, I'm not a huge picture guy when it comes to home theater (I'm more of an audio guy) but 1080 vs 4k is super obvious if you have a solid panel/projector. I have a nexigo aurora pro and man alive, that thing stuns with its clarity.”
“You do need to darken the room. But this might give you some idea; this is a thread someone posted the other day with a PX3-Pro projector (the current front-runner of the UST projectors, I'd say) and a fresnel based ambient light rejecting screen. https://www.reddit.com/r/projectors/comments/1ju2q7p/using_px3pro_with_100_inch_fresnel_alr_screen_in/ Natural light is absolutely the enemy, but the alternative (TV's) brings another bugaboo - the fact that the screens are super glossy and turn into mirrors with any light in the room at all, which I'd personally hate more. Also, 120 inches is still tricky to do with TV's, you can buy 115 but at high cost and tons of pain hauling it around. Here's another video that shows what a difference an ambient light rejecting screen makes: [ALR Screen VS White WALL - Side by Side Comparison in Different Lighting Conditions | Chris Maher, YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XG1rVFTnkuE) But the projector itself if you're buying something decent like the aforementioned PX3-Pro is $3000+, and a 120 inch ALR screen around $1000. A Nexigo Aurora Pro can be had for less, it's a little less bright but has superb black levels for night-time viewing, but either way your cost will be around $3000 and up.”
