There are many type of projection technologies available, however the two most suitable for home cinemas and smaller screening rooms are CRT and DLP.

For screen sizes up to 8 foot wide, in rooms that can be totally blacked out CRT projectors may still be used, however due to their size, cost and high maintenance, DLP technology have now made CRT projectors largely redundant.

DLP’s projectors vary tremendously in cost and quality, but compared to other technologies they provide excellent brightness, contrast and resolution. In most applications a DLP projector would be the first choice for watching films and television.

While Runco projectors have always been the first choice for those in Hollywood, in the past, their products have simply been too expensive for the majority of home cinema installations.

With Runco’s recent introduction of a new range of DLP projectors however, their legendary performance has now become far more accessible for those people who are working to a more realistic budget. At the same time the tiny dimensions and high brightness of these new projectors has made them perfect for concealing into rooms that are not blacked out as dedicated screening rooms.
