- Is the Emerson EVP-3004C good for a bright living room?
- No. Its real light output is low, so the picture looks washed out with lamps on or daylight coming in. It performs best in a dark or heavily dimmed room.
- Does it really project 150 inches?
- It can throw a very large image, but at that size the picture gets dimmer and softer. Most owners get a better result around 80 to 100 inches, which matches the included screen.
- Do I need a separate speaker or soundbar?
- The dual 3W speakers are usable for casual viewing but thin. A soundbar or the 3.5mm headphone jack to an external speaker gives much better dialogue and music.
- What comes in the box?
- The projector, a 100-inch foldable projection screen, a carrying case and a remote control. You supply the streaming device or use the built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
- How long does the light source last?
- The LED light source is rated up to 30,000 hours, so you should not need to replace a lamp during normal use. It is covered by a one-year warranty.
- Is it good for gaming?
- Only for casual play. The LCD panel and processing add input lag, and the dim picture hurts fast-paced games. Serious gamers should look at projectors with a dedicated game mode.
