Got a spare £50,000 lying around in your sock drawer? Well, those that live and breathe home cinema and have a mint in the basement, will no doubt be slavering over the latest future projector offering from projectiondesign, a company well known for great, but very expensive kit.

After all, this company’s idea of an entry-level projector [the Action M20] starts at £3,500.

Now we have the M80, the company’s first three-chip 1080p DLP projector for the home. The expense is down to the fact that rather than use other company’s optical engines, pd likes to build its own.

For the M80, the company is claiming that early tests have resulted in “ phenomenal imaging fidelity, pin-point colour accuracy, 50,000:1 contrast ratio” and a lamp pumping out and astonishing 8000 Lumens brightness.-Martin Lynch

UPDATE: It will not cost £50,000, just around £20-30,000. So there, a bargain.
