For
years a suspended mirror was considered to be the height of technology in the
organ world, then came projectors. The benefits were enormous. However, until
recently prices did not justify the advantages. When we decided a projector was
needed for our festivals, we embarked on a great deal of research checking both
the cost and quality of screens and projectors. It led to a product we are very
pleased with and we believe would be of benefit to many of our customers. Thus
our prime recommended "Sanyo" projector complete with special screen deal
retails at £1299.00 (excluding carriage) and
will save you hours and hours going through the maze of other products out
there. The following is just a few of the questions you might like to think
about if you are about to buy for your society or club. This can be an expensive
mistake if you don't get the right gear. We also sell Plasma screens. If you
would like a quote for any brand or model please phone.

brand of projector do I need? |
1) What
Size do I need? |
| 2) How
bright should it be? |
2) How
high does it extend? |

many hours will it run for before the bulb will need to be changed? |
3) What
distance does the screen need to be from the projector? |

5) How
well protected is it in transit? |
| 6) Is the
projector VGA, SVGA, XGA and what do they all mean? |
6) Is it
coated? (its not as easy as pointing at a white painted wall) |
| 7) Will it
be able to cope when used with stage lighting? |
|
| 8) Does it
have a power saving mode? |
|
| 9) Is the
system fast enough i.e. do you hear the organ and the see the musicians
fingers move afterwards? |

By
now you should be getting an idea of just how complicated the subject can get.
We typed in Projectors into Google and got "Results 1 - 10
of about 899,000 for projectors"
Your possibly also thinking
that's all well and good but I've seen cheaper. Be warned! You get what you pay
for! To make the whole subject simpler we usually offer just two packages for
slightly different situations, but both of which are tried and tested. One for a
stage with little or no stage lighting and a second which we use ourselves at
the Cumberland Hotel during our festivals (screen pictured left featuring Harry
Hussey). All you need to do is set up a camcorder on a tripod and plug it into
either of our packages and you will have a feature guaranteed to have your club
talking and more importantly an attraction that will improve your concerts and
likely to bring more members to your club. Incidentally a whole host of other
uses come to mind i.e. we connect a DVD player at our shows and with a DVD
written on our computer show pictures of prior festivals in the breaks. Laptops
can also be connected used for demonstrations, teaching etc.
Please note due to the
high turn around of models and prices we no longer quote them on this page. We
are constantly updated from our supplier so please contact us at the time
requesting a quote and we will give you our best possible price.
