Product Description
The "Educator Series" XR-10X offers brilliant high-resolution images - with 2000 ANSI Lumens brightness and XGA native resolution. Utilizing the latest Texas Instruments DDR DLP display technology with 3x speed, 4-segment color wheel in conjunction with TrueVision (DDP2000) image processing, ensures superior color quality, brightness and reliability. Multiple ultra-quiet cooling fans, along with extended lamp life, makes the projector an ideal choice for extended-use operation. And a full complement of inputs and outputs (including RGB-loop through, stereo variable audio line-output and RS-232C), makes the projector ideal not only for "portable" use but for higher-end integration as well.

 Great projector, with honest review of it's limitations. November 29, 2008
Jacob (New York, NY)
In short, this projector is a joy to have.
Easy to set up, control and with a great, sharp picture this projector has really won me over. I did a lot of shopping around before purchasing and it seems to have paid off. With 2000 lumens in it's brightest setting this projector works well in medium ambient light; however, we keep it set to the "Movie" mode which saves lamp life and provides for a more balanced picture.
My ONLY complaint is that there are no digital HD inputs (DVI or HDMI). Keep in mind that projectors in this price range are primarily built for the business consumer and are thus great for presentation work (note that this one actually comes with a coffee break feature) so are traditionally limited in HD connectivity. The dual VGA (analog) inputs will easily handle a very high def image if you hook it up to a computer, but most consumer level dvd players will only output an HD signal via the HDMI (digital) port. And good luck trying to convert a digital HD signal into an analog one. So if you're truly looking for the best HD experience, prepare yourself to pay at least twice the money for a "home-theater" level projector with digital inputs.
With that in mind, I have to say that running standard resolution, widescreen (or full) dvd's on this baby is more than satisfying. I was set up and watching movies within minutes of taking it out the box and have used it almost everyday since without a hiccup. Also, to my surprise, we've had a great time watching web-based video on this too. I was sure it would look horrible at this size, but it really doesn't if you have a good feed.
For the price, it's a sure thing. Also, I bought this one factory refurbished with a 1 year warranty - just so you know.
Almost three years in and still loving it. July 25, 2008

This projector will have been with me for three years this coming Christmas and it is still on its first bulb and going strong. It is versatile in the fact that it can show perfect images of 16:9 and 4:3, 4:3 if you are still not on HDTV at 16:9, or you can convert your 4:3 image to a great looking 16:9 with the touch of a button. Set was a breeze, learning the controls was a breeze, and the picture is impressive even when compared to models I have seen in use that run in the $3,000 range. Unless you have more money than sense or your eyes can see things that mine don't, this is the projector for you. Who needs 643 features, this bad boy does everything you will need it to do. I run computer occasionally, but mostly DVD and Sat. TV. Good luck.
 Great Projector! April 25, 2006

I purchased this projector about three months ago, and I have to say I LOVE IT! I read many reviews before making my purchase, and I read a lot about fan noise, and a lot of technical jargon that I didn't understand. The bottom line is, this projector is GREAT, for the price. I run all my video through it, sattelite tv, DVD, etc., and the only thing I have to say is that, as long as you put a good, clean signal into it, you will NOT be disappointed. It is very unforgiving of a bad signal, I assume because of how incredibly large the image is. For example, I ran my son's PS2 through the VCR (yes I still have one)and played a game on it, and it looked HORRIBLE! But watching sports, or a good DVD, it looks awesome. I would recommend this projector to anyone looking to break into the projector market. Sure there are more expensive ones, with more features, etc., but you can't beat this one for the price!

Folks this bad boy is outstanding.
I used to own the (NEC VT47 Digital Video Projector) and this one blows it out of the water. This is the best projector for the price. Our local tweeter store had a display set up for a 6000 dollar projector and friends, mine is just as good. After my other one bit the dust, thanks to Alabama Powers flipping the electricity on and off and not replacing it when I nicely pointed out that they had killed it... still a sore spot... I waited about six months before I got a new one. I have been studying and demo-ing projectors for years: Prices, resolution (the horizontal and vertical lines that make up the detail) and the lumens (The brightness of the bulb... Typically in a dark room 1300-1500 is plenty) all the specs.
After all the search, and finally getting my hands on it, I am so pleased with my decision. Sharp has really come through.
The Focus is manual, but if you have it in a fixed position you shouldn't have to worry about it after one adjustment. The keystone is only top and bottom, so its ok to rest your projector at an up or down angle, but it needs to be close to straight on. Which is what I wanted anyway.
The Picture: Stunning. I have watched several months worth of tv and atleast a hundred movies through it, and have yet to see it deminish in quality. Fan of computer animation? ToyStory and Finding Nemo are terrific on this thing. It can take anything you wanna throw at it: The Murkiness of Gladiator or Saving Private Ryan, the wild blow outs of amber and yellow in Domino, or the simplicity of lush foliage as in The Thin Red Line. Its all good. I have waited several months to review it, just to make sure I didn't mislead any of you, my Amazon friends. Thankfully, now I can say, go get it!
The Fans are quiet, and just so you know (and this is coming for Roger Ebert) Lowering the brightness of your bulb in the settings DOES NOT lengthen the life of it. Its a myth folks. So, if you are gonna get one or have a projector already, turn up the brightness to get its full protential.
Everyone that has come to my home and watched a movie on it wants one. Not some of them, All of them. Also, the further back it gets from your screen the better it gets. Thats a huge characteristic. (I have a light colored wall and it works perfect... remember in Back to the Future 2 when future Marty has a tv in the window shade. I have a whole wall!)My last one lost quality. At 13 feet wide, the picture was still amazing. Its also comes ready to plug in the next generation dvd players: HD-DVD AND BLURAY.
I could go on and on about it, but I wanted you all to know it has this reviewers seal of approval. The best price for the best quality. ~saos~
 Great Picture- Not so good for the long haul April 17, 2006

I just returned my second projector in 6 months. I replaced my TV with this projector & have loved the larger than life images and great quality. Unfortunately, the DLP light only lasts about 3 months of 2-3 hours of TV a day. The replacement bulbs are expensive at over $300.00 each on-line. If you don't mind replacing the bulb every three months & the cost that goes along with it, it's a great projector.
