I was simply blow away by the brightness , trope quality , and usability of AWOL Vision ’s flagship LTV-3500 Pro ultra myopic cam stroke ( UST ) projectorwhen I reviewed itlast month . But , unfortunately , for many folks search to transubstantiate their livelihood or medium way into an veneration - inspire home theater , the LTV-3500 Pro is also one of the most expensive projector I ’ve ever reviewed , with a wallet - punching $ 6,000 MSRP . I still wholeheartedly recommend it , even at that price , so I was understandably thrilled when I saw the glorious moving picture car available during the spark advance - up to Prime Day 2024 at a wallet - free $ 900 off .
The AWOL LTV-3500 Pro soars above thebest forgetful stroke and ultra short throw projectorcompetition , in tumid part due to its 3,500 lumens of smartness from its spectacular RGB triple laser DLP eye , which make for an magnificently bright and contrasty image even in the brightest of rooms . It turned my small basement television elbow room into a home dramatic art that equal some secondly - run movie house I ’ve been to . And the Zea mays everta ’s free .
The hefty 24 - pound UST even endure up well against my 55 - in LG organic light-emitting diode , beaming a beautiful 4 K , 100 - inch image ( it can go up to 150 inches , though ) on my ALR ( ambient Christ Within rejecting ) screen . Colors are lifelike and exact , it ’s one of few projector in its class that put up all four majorHDR formats ( HDR10 , HDR10 + , HLG , and Dolby Vision ) , and is 3D adequate to as well .
TheLTV-3,500 ’s built - in 36 - James Watt loudspeaker system system also did a swell problem at filling my home theater of operations room with spacious phone , which imply that you do n’t needfully need to shell out additional cash for a soundbar ( but if you do , Sony ’s superb HT - A5000is also going for a Sung for Prime Day too ) .
OK , so I may have buried the lead-in here : the AWOL LTV-3500 Pro is an radical scant cam stroke projector , so if your dreams of immense nursing home theater projection have been thwarted thus far by not have enough space in your living way , put them to rest now . UST projectors can reach their full-grown picture projection while being positioned just inches away from the paries or screen ( just 9 inches , in the case of the LTV-3500 Pro ) , so there ’s no mussy ceiling mounting or rearranging your piece of furniture to conciliate the projector arrangement .
The AWOL Vision LTV-3500 Pro is easy to setup and utilise , has plenty of HDMI input signal for connectingstreaming devicesand Blu - shaft of light musician , and even comes with a Fire TV Stick 4 kelvin that can be neatly hidden in a special compartment in the back of the projector .
It should be noted that on Amazon , the LTV-3500 Pro ’s deal is list as $ 1,400 off , which comes by way of an Amazon voucher that you must apply to the purchase at checkout counter , which is just Amazon ’s style ofensuring people actually corrupt it presently instead of sticking it in their cart and leaving it there . However , it should also be take down that the full price is ( weirdly ) list as $ 6,500 , $ 500 more than the existent MSRP . So … the math says that you ’ll get the LTV-3500 Pro for $ 5,100 , or $ 900 off the MSRP . Best Buy is also offering the LTV-3500 Pro , a piffling less confusingly , for $ 5,100 . Pick your poison , I guess . But either way , you ’re saving $ 900 on one of the best projectors I ’ve ever go steady .
If you ’d still rather not let go of that much money , Amazon , Best Buy , and Walmart are also offer two of AWOL ’s footmark - down UST projectors at a discount , too . The $ 4,000 LTV-3000 Pro , which partake many of the same features , but with 3,000 lumens of brightness , can be had for as low as $ 3,100 , and the also excellent LTV-2500 , has dropped from $ 3,000 to $ 2,200 on Amazon .
