Pairing my screen (ALR cinegrey 3d) with the Epson 3500 in a somewhat well lit room with a pretty standard ambient day room light almost made me pee myself.

The picture is amazing at night/in a dark room and is every bit as good, possibly better than my old plasma

Even in a well lit room, the ALR material provides great contrast

Screens works well with moderate ambient light and also looks great in a dark room

Image quality in dark room is as expected

i was hoping beyond hope that the projector technology had improved from what i had seen years ago and would look acceptable in a somewhat well lit room (pictures to follow in the next

the room i put it in is about 16 by 25 but you cant appreciate how huge a screen that's nearly 8 feet wide or bigger is until you are actually physically looking at it.

Basically the only time I got a great picture was well after sunset in a totally dark room

I have to keep the room dark.

It looks great in a dark room as well as with some ambient light in the room
