I know you can get Epson glasses, but have also seen cheaper ones on eBay etc that say they are compatible interested on your thoughts No epson aren't even bringing in the glasses anymore. You need to find oem ones on ebay I'm afraid. Actually I have 2 pairs I'd be happy to sell, used once and work fine. PM me if you want them. Think they're $99 retail, does $60 a pair sound fair? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can get Epson glasses, but have also seen cheaper ones on eBay etc that say they are compatible interested on your thoughts I think I watched a 3D movie on one of my Epson pj's at least. Not sure if it was the 9400 though. I used some old Samsung glasses I had from an old TV. Surprisingly they work with my Panasonic TV too, which don't even work with some genuine Pana glasses I have from an earlier model (maybe because that's a plasma TV?). Anyway, I don't like these glasses as they're flimsy, but glad they work with two devices besides what they're intended for and saves me having to buy more.

oztheatre Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 A bit of interest there in the 3d glasses so have reached out to disty and Epson rep to see what they might be able to do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j19801110 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I have a pair of original Epson 3D glasses here that I used once only if anyone is interested. They don’t fit well over my glasses so I’m using bigger ones I got from eBay. I’m in Sydney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serentity Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Had my Epson 9400 calibrated made a difference especially with standard Def Movies and Tv Shows. Anyone interested in getting it done in the Hunter Valley PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addikt Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 When setting up the projector if one side of the screen is slightly lower than the other is it best just to spin one of the wheels on the base of the projector to even it up? Or is there a setting in the actual projector? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the screen isn't level you should fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Just now, Quark said: Presume you're shelf mounting and that the image (not the screen) is slightly lower. Yes, you can just adjust one or more of the feet. If the screen isn't level you should fix it. Should add that if the image isn't rectangular and slightly trapezoid then the projector isn't at right angles to the screen. If that's the case turn the projector towards the slightly smaller side to get a rectangular image, then use lens shift to move the image back on to the screen. Don't use keystone adjustments - they're for cheap projectors and cause artefacts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know keystones are a no no. I will mess with the wheels on the base once I get the screen installed as I am currently just projecting on wall. 135" screen to be received in next week or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lufc001 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Im looking at picking up one of these soon to replace my Panasonic 8000 projector. Seen it locally a few times and was very impressed. Should be a good upgrade on my current projector which now seems to have some sort of dust on the lcd assembly and has now started flickering constantly.

Looking for another pair I don’t have a pair of the original Epson 3D glasses to compare with, but I sourced some Samsung 3D Active glasses (SSG-5100GB) off eBay. Seems to work well with the 9400. Not the most comfortable but works in a pinch. More cost effective I would think. Took a week+ to arrive (shipped from China on 12/11 arrived 20/11) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esoterica Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Loving my 9400. I use it every other day usually. I like to reserve it for movies and some movie-like series (The Boys, Stranger Things etc.) I really only watch NRL as far as sports go, and I'll use it for that too occasionally. I have mine sitting on the top of a bookcase which works very well. It only just fits though, so was a pain to get positioned initially. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it was one of the models in my research of screens, but it's almost perfectly sized for the space I have, allowing me to have the maximum screen size Being an unusual 112" (I don't recall seeing this size) makes it a good choice for me, so thanks for posting! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good size I reckon. I sit about 4m away and is great. I'm still running an old Epson TW3200 which is on its second lamp. I still get a great picture but thinking it's maybe time to upgrade...hence the lurking in this TW 9400 thread.Here's the Grandview 112 which i've installed to come down in front of my Sony 65 OLED. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShouwnO Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 I recently upgraded to the TW9400 (from Optoma UHD51) and I absolutely love it! Much better contrast and colour reproduction than the Optoma. I have mine perched on a shelf at the back of my room 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
