There was some distortion at higher volumes, so you may want to turn the volume down somewhat. Its 8-watt speaker is loud enough to fill a small to mid-sized room. There was significant posterization-abrupt shifts in color where they should be gradual. The rainbow effect was a bit more apparent in the 1610HD's video than is usual with a DLP projector, and people even mildly sensitive to it may be distracted by rainbow artifacts. Video quality was suitable for shorter clips as part of a presentation. Such rainbow artifacts were evident in certain images that tend to bring them out, but the effect is seldom a problem in data presentations, and shouldn't be with the 1610HD. Text quality was good, with black on white sharp down to the smallest size, and white-on-black text blurred at the two smallest sizes.Īll DLP projectors are potentially subject to the rainbow effect, in which little red-green-blue flashes can be seen, especially in bright areas against dark backgrounds. Colors, especially reds and yellows, were on the dull side even for a DLP projector, which tend to have lower color brightness than their LCD counterparts. There was a trace of tinting-some grays in greens, and yellow in white backgrounds-but it was fairly mild for a DLP projector. In data image testing using the DisplayMate suite, the 1610HD's image quality proved slightly above par for a data projector, suitable for most business or classroom presentations. The image stood up well to a fair amount of ambient light when it was introduced. The 1610HD projected an image that filled our test screen (about 55 inches on a diagonal) from about eight feet away. One thing that it lacks is a USB type A port that would enable you to run a presentation from a USB thumb drive (or connect a Wi-Fi adapter). The 1610HD has a decent set of connections for a portable projector: HDMI two VGA-in and one monitor-out S-Video three RCA jacks for composite audio/video audio-in and audio-out microphone Ethernet and a USB port for connecting with a PC to provide remote mouse control.
