Projectors & TVs

Choose a Projector when image size and cinematic immersion are the main priorities. Ultra-short-throw projectors can create a very large picture from a position close to the screen, making them especially suitable for modern living rooms. Conventional home cinema projectors offer greater placement flexibility and are often the preferred solution for dedicated cinema rooms. Consider light output, contrast, throw distance, lens adjustment, installation position and the level of ambient light in the room.

A high-quality TV is ideal when the system must work equally well for everyday viewing, films, television and gaming. Premium televisions combine strong contrast, accurate colour, intuitive operation and refined industrial design. They are particularly practical in brighter rooms or spaces where a projection screen and projector installation would be inconvenient.

A projector should be matched with the correct Projection Screen. Screen material, gain, viewing angle and ambient-light behaviour can affect perceived brightness, contrast, colour balance and black level. Ultra-short-throw projectors require screens designed specifically for UST projection. In dedicated dark rooms, fixed-frame or acoustically transparent screens may offer the most cinema-like result, while motorised and floor-rising screens provide a more discreet solution for shared living spaces.

A larger image is not automatically a better image. The correct size should feel immersive without becoming tiring or forcing the viewer to constantly move their eyes across the screen. Seating position, room width, ceiling height, projector throw requirements and speaker placement should therefore be planned together. For projection systems, the position of the screen also affects the location of the centre speaker, front speakers and furniture.

A premium visual system deserves equally capable sound. For multi-channel cinema, explore AV Receivers, Processors & Amplifiers, Home Cinema Speakers and Subwoofers. A television or projector can also be integrated with a high-quality two-channel system, allowing the same front speakers and amplifier to serve both serious music listening and film sound.

Projector placement, HDMI cable length, signal distribution, power access, ventilation and future serviceability should be considered before installation begins. Longer signal runs may require active or optical HDMI solutions from Digital & HDMI Cables. Careful planning is especially important when cables, projector lifts, motorised screens or loudspeakers must be integrated into walls, ceilings or custom furniture.
