"The Epson EH-TW6100 is a great update to last year's EH-TW6000, correcting that projector's flaws and adding some new features all its own. With a bright, accurate picture in 2D and much improved 3D performance, the EH-TW6100 is a strong contender in the home video space that is both powerful and budget-friendly.
Whether you choose the EH-TW6100 or the wireless-enabled EH-TW6100W, both projectors have a slew of features to make projecting in the living room a reality. Radio-frequency 3D glasses completely eliminate interaction with remote controls while also making it easier to sync with the projector, even when line of sight is not perfectly maintained. The projector's dual 10W stereo speakers pack enough punch to make portable use a real option. And since default color is already close to ideal, you "set it and forget it" types can just open the box, plunk the projector down on the coffee table, and get right to enjoying your new home video projector.

"The 3D system on the projector has also received a few updates with improved software making for a better 3D picture. In some cases on the previous model there was 'slight' interference or digital artifacts but with the TW6100 this has been eliminated. Epson have also included 2D to 3D conversion allowing for normal 2D movies to be viewed in 3D. Though this won't be as good as a movie of program recorded in natively in 3D it actually works quite well.
All in all the EH-TW6100W is a very good update to an already excellent model and we're happy to give it the full five star rating." |

"The EH-TW6100 and EH-TW6100W are the only 3D capable LCD home projectors on the market under $2500! That means they get to take on a whole bunch of DLP projectors as the competition. With one or two exceptions, the Epson has those DLP's beat. Not at everything, but at so many things, that it's really no contest. So far, the best of the DLP competition under $2500 are the Acer and the BenQ W7000. The BenQ is about $400 more while the H9500BD is basically the same price as the standard EH-TW6100.
The Epson easily beats both at brightness, and that's especially true for 3D. The Epson is also the projector that least needs any calibration - the best choice, right out of the box. No muss, no fuss! (I have no idea where that phrase originated)." |
