Viewsonic Precision PRO8100 1080p Home Theater Projector
Related Entries: Home Theater
I just got a Viewsonic Precision PRO8100 in for review. This unit will only be available through custom installers and select retailers (not available online).The specs on this projector look great on paper and I will be doing a full video review of this unit. My reference point will be an ISF calibrated NEC XG CRT projector and sources will include HD DVD, Blu-ray and DVD via a Windows Media Center PC using HDMI connectivity. For fun, I will even check out my old LaserDisc collection’s quality connected to the analog output from my reference Pioneer CLD-97.
If you have any specific requests you’d like me to include in the review, please post it in the comments. This projector is aimed at competing with the JVC RS-2 (my current favorite) and the Sony VPL-VW60. This may just be the hottest projector to date!

I’d like to have you report on the connectivity options for integration into control systems. Does it have RS-232, does it at least have discrete on/off IR commands. Have they taken any time to address these issues since they are targeting custom installers it would be good to know how well they thought through these issues.
