Edit: I'm ordering my X-rite soon and using HCFR for calibration. Your projectors setting are available on Amazon. My bulb is at 1000 hours and now I think the calibration is worth it.

Catbrat I think grunt is referring to Projectoreviews.com. Most of his comments match Arts comments in his exceptionally detailed reviews. I'm not sure about the Epson but my Benq W5000 and his Panny 4000 both have very low input lag (Crucial for gamers). The frame response is nice too but my DLP doesn't really ghost so I don't have any complaints there either.

EDIT #2: Without question the best guide for affordable calibration I have seen:

Thanks for the info on the X-rite. If you get a chance I’d like to hear your opinions of it.

Yes I am referring to Art’s comments. He is a big black-level and brightness fanatic which I understand because of the pop and wow factor that gives. However, there are other PQ factors I look at like the shadow detail and also I like the “DLP” look which was why I also considered the Benq.
