Projectors

Yes. Every projector goes through inspection and testing at our 30,000 square-foot Las Vegas facility. Our technicians verify functionality, check lamp or laser hours, inspect lenses, and perform any necessary maintenance before equipment is listed for sale. We assign both a functionality rating (F1–F5) and a cosmetic rating (C1–C5) so you know exactly what you're getting.

Our inventory includes projectors from leading professional manufacturers such as Barco, Christie, Panasonic, Sony, Epson, NEC, Hitachi, Optoma, Sanyo, and Digital Projection. 

We're always getting new inventory, so check back often or contact our team if you're looking for something specific.

Absolutely. We offer multiple options for selling your gear, including consignment programs, full buyouts, and auction services. Our team handles everything from valuation and pickup to remarketing and sales.

Yes. Our team confirms each unit is a valid model from the original manufacturer and checks compatibility with common lenses and accessories. We document lamp or laser hours, test inputs and outputs, and note any quirks so you know exactly what you're buying.

Some projectors have built-in speakers, but they're typically not powerful enough for professional applications. Most pro AV setups pair projectors with external audio systems for better sound quality and coverage. If you need help building a complete system, our team can point you toward compatible audio equipment.

Lamp-based projectors use a traditional bulb that needs replacement after a certain number of hours, typically 2,000 to 5,000 depending on the model. Laser projectors use a solid-state light source that lasts significantly longer, often 20,000 hours or more, with less brightness degradation over time.

Start with three factors:

1. Screen size: Larger screens require more lumen output to maintain a bright, clear projected image
2. Ambient light: Brighter rooms need higher lumen brightness projectors to compete with surrounding light. Pairing your projector with an ambient light rejecting projection screen can also improve visibility in challenging environments.
3. Viewing distance: Match the projector's throw ratio to your installation distance (short-throw lenses for tight spaces, long-throw for distant mounting positions).

Lumens measure a projector's brightness output. The right number depends on screen size, ambient light, and image quality expectations. As a general guide:

• Dark rooms (home theaters): 2,000 to 3,000 lumens
• Conference rooms and corporate users with controlled lighting: 4,000 to 6,000 lumens
• Large venues, outdoor events, and bright environments: 10,000 lumens or more

When in doubt, go brighter. You can always dial output down, but you can't add brightness that isn't there.
