BACK IN 2017 I had an opportunity to review BenQ’s HT9050 DLP projector, a flagship 4K model featuring a spectacular all-glass lens, an LED light engine, and the latest Texas Instruments DLP imaging device.
To sum that review up briefly, I had a lot of issues with the HT9050, which lacked both HDR support and convenience features commonly seen on other models at or near its $8,999 price. Now BenQ has brought out the HT9060, another $8,999 model sitting at the top of its “CinePro” projector line. The HT9060’s feature set is very similar to that found on the HT9050, but this time out HDR support is included using BenQ’s “HDR-Pro” technology.
THE GOODS
BenQ’s projector has a well-constructed chassis that’s on the larger side for a model at this price point. The HT9060 features the same 14-element all-glass lens that I appreciated in the HT9050. The performance you get from this type of lens is rare even for projectors at twice the HT9060’s price. Couple that with the single-chip “XPR” DLP architecture (native resolution of 2,716 x 1,528 pixels shifted optically to deliver 8.3 million pixels that are individually addressed but slightly overlapped) and the result is a clean, crisp image with no convergence issues. Even with my nose to the screen I could barely make out any chroma bleed.

The Big Clean
Chances are you probably do not think about the state of your electronic devices too often. Oh, you might think about all the upgrades you would like to make; where you would put those new tower speakers, or how a second or third subwoofer would really tame those bass modes in your room, or how much more cinematic a larger screen would be. Sure, you think about that part of your system. But how often do you think about the well-being of your system?

Bridging the Analog-Digital Gap on a Recliner
When I shopped for a motorized recliner, I rejected models with their own Internet Protocol address and built-in speakers. No need. I had already placed a smart speaker on an étagère beside the space where I had planned to put the chair. I'd have a smartphone in my hand and the room would be bathed in Wi-Fi.
