Epson EH-TW9400 - Projector

Epson’s pixel-shifting projector offers the power and flexibility for a superb home theatre experience

The Epson EH-TW9400 is a projector on the edge of greatness. At ₹ 2,77,999 it belongs in a category just before the step up in price to native 4K projection. But this one uses Epson’s 4K Enhancement pixel-shifting technology to display that higher resolution. It’s not a native 4K chip, of course, but you’d be looking at about twice this price to get that.

The LCD-based EH-TW9400 is a pretty big machine, weighing in at a hefty 11kg, so you’ll need space on your rack to accommodate it. Fortunately, it’s flexible enough for a range of positioning options, including ceiling mounting via a dedicated bracket from Epson.

Motorised zoom lens

The adaptable lens is a real bonus here. Not only is it motorised for zoom and focus, but it can also shift the image vertically and horizontally. It has a 2.1x optical zoom lens with a throw ratio of 1.35-2.84:1, offering a range of options for the distance between the projector and your screen. The image produced ranges between 50in and 300in in size, and while the minimum throw is around 1.5m, a 100in image would mean set-up anywhere between 3m to 6.3m.
