I stumbled across a pioneer cld-d504 laser disc player for $10 at gw and thought why not?
I've never had one and always have been intrigued by them so I went on ebay and bought a few dics to try it out on my 92" screen projector
After connecting it up and putting a movie in I hate to admit it but the picture is pretty bad and I could barely stand to watch it. Its a 1080p projector and hd stuff looks amazing. Also wanted to hear ac3 but those rf demodulators are $100-150 alone and considering the picture I'm gonna hold off.
I guess It has a lot to do with the resolution limits and the projector filling in the image, resulting in a blurry picture that I tried tweaking to no avail. Only $40 bucks in I don't feel that bad but I'm bummed out.
The one thing I do think is really cool is the movie selection and prices on them. They will make for a great display wall I'm building anyhow!
