Is the Epson PowerLite 2247U worth the investment, or are you better off sticking with a more traditional setup?

I'm considering the Epson PowerLite 2247U Wireless Full HD WUXGA 3LCD Projector for my home setup and would love to hear your thoughts on it. I'm particularly interested in the picture quality—how does the color accuracy hold up in both bright and dim environments? I've read that it boasts impressive lumens and contrast ratio, but does it truly deliver sharp and vivid images as advertised?

Additionally, how's the sound quality? I know projectors often have less-than-stellar built-in speakers, so I wonder if this one stands out or if external sound systems are a must.

Lastly, I'm curious about the overall system performance. How's the wireless connectivity? Any issues or downsides you've encountered with setup or usage? I appreciate any insights you can share!
 
Man, this projector is awesome! The picture is super sharp and the brightness is on point. Plus, it runs so quietly. I've got four projectors I use in courtrooms, but honestly, this one is my favorite by a mile!
