My older brother is intent on buying a Sony VPLHW40ES. He has an irrational affinity for Sony products, and the price isn't an issue for him. Do I talk him into something else or leave it alone?

He doesn't have a screen yet, so grey would be an option. I haven't measured his room, but the screen would likely be between 100" and 120". Will be used for movies and satellite TV. No gaming. The room has a pre-installed projector mount, but we can move it without too much issue, so throw distance isn't a major concern.

I have this projector. It is jaw dropping. Right out of the box....

I'm not a Sony fanboy by any means but it's the projector my contractor recommended. There is a similarly priced epson that is always reviewed head to head with this Sony. They are probably neck and neck but people will swear that one is better than the other.

All I know is that it's fantastic if you've got the budget for it.
