  • "Connections-wise you get...HDMI (though this doesn’t take sound)"

    Does that mean that the HDMI connection is for video only - what connection is used for the audio input?

    Posted by GJ, Spain
  • The HDMI connection is only for Video unfortunately on thsi model. But the speakers are quite less powerful so if you spent a 30 t o40 euros you could get a nice set of PC speaks which you could connect to your PC or DVD player and get a very good surround sound which I do. This is my second projector after my first buy Epson's EMP DM1 (calso called in US as Movive Mate 50) and I am quite impressed with this one. Its so portable and easy to store. I dont like the remote size but for such a good price you can not expect every thing to be as you want. Base line is that the picture quality is amazingly crisp and clear. All my family love it.
