Looking for a FullHD DLP projector? Need one that has a very high contrast ratio and an array of inputs. How about one with a lens from a famous lens maker? Well, we have a projector for you. Check out the VP-11S1 from Marantz. This lovely looking projector is 1080p and a contrast ratio of 6500:1. Not only that it has tons of inputs including: 2 HDMI, 2 component, s-video, RS 232 and VGA. The lens comes from Konica Minolta but this thing is going to require a good amount of room. Check out how small the power cable receptacle looks. Judging from that, the projector looks like the size a a mid-tower computer case. You know why they make this projector so big though right? So it feels as if you are getting $14,500 worth of a projector!

You think that's big? My cousins just bought a big house where there's an ancient ceiling-mounted Sony projector in the basement... it's got the three huge RGB lenses, and it's practically the size of a Volkswagen. Might be about the same size as a Mini Cooper. :-) (OK, it's probably really only three feet long or so...)

I don't care how big it is. If it's 6500:1 and 1080p I'll take it -once it becomes reasonably priced :)
