Hey everyone.

I’m considering the EPSON PowerLite 826W+ Multimedia Projector and would love to get your thoughts on it. I’m particularly interested in the picture quality—how does the 3LCD technology hold up in real-world use? Is the WXGA resolution sufficient for a larger audience?

Also, sound quality is a big factor for me. Does it have decent built-in speakers, or would I need to invest in external sound systems?

I’ve read about the energy-efficient E-TORL lamp, but I'm curious about the lifespan and any experiences with it. Lastly, what are some potential downsides that I should be aware of before making a purchase?

Appreciate any insights you can share!
