![]() ![]() It’s significantly louder and more refined than the majority of built-in TV speakers, and more than a match for some soundbars. It’s hard to believe the room-filling sound it produces can come from such a compact speaker on the front of a projector. Backed by the likes of Martin Scorsese, this setting rids the image of anything that might cause artefacts or artificially smoothed motion.Īs for the built-in speaker, it’s surprisingly effective. Similarly, it also offers a Filmmaker Mode – a first for a projector – to ensure that movies are presented as close to the director’s original vision as possible. The Premiere does feature a Game Mode which disables any setting that might add additional lag. The 56ms input lag might seem fairly high, but we had no real issues playing a selection of games on the PlayStation 5. Black levels aren’t as inky and strong as you’d see on a good OLED TV, but there’s still real punch and impact in the LSP9T’s images. HDR10+ is supported (something which no other projector currently offers) and there’s a wide dynamic range which we’re simply not accustomed to seeing on projectors. The 4K resolution results in razor sharp detail, while colours are full, lush and vibrant. The only time the picture appeared washed out was when we threw open the curtains and turned the big light on. We used it with a projector screen in a dark room – a setup which will always produce the best results – but The Premiere is bright enough to work acceptably well on a white wall or in a room with some ambient light. The LSP9T produces a stunningly large, sharp and bright image. The connections are all located on the wall-facing side of the projector, which helps to hide messy cables, even if it makes access a bit tricky when you want to plug in something new. That’s an impressive haul, even if it’s a little disappointing that the HDMI inputs don’t support the variable refresh rates offered by the latest generation of games consoles. In addition to Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, you get an aerial input (there’s a TV tuner built into the projector), an optical audio output and USB, plus three HDMIs – one of which supports eARC, so its capable of carrying a Dolby Atmos or DTS:X audio passthrough. ![]() While most projectors are better hidden out of sight – or mounted on the ceiling – The Premiere’s design fits inoffensively with most home decor.Ĭonnectivity reinforces The Premiere’s lifestyle aspirations. In plain white, it looks more like a large games console or squat soundbar than a projector – and that’s a positive thing. The Premiere itself has an attractive minimalist design, even if it’s quite large and heavy. It’s also possible to alter the keystoning (the proportions and perspective of the projected image) through the settings menu to further perfect the picture. After a bit of tinkering, we managed to achieve a decent fit. The Premiere has feet which can be raised or lowered to tweak its angle. We experienced some frustrations getting the picture to precisely fit our wall-mounted screen. But it also means you need to place the projector in quite a specific way. This design eliminates a lot of the setup issues often associated with projectors: there’s no need to worry about viewers’ heads blocking the image, or risk tripping over snaking cables running from one side of your room to the other. And it can create a 100in image on a surface – its minimum picture size – from a mere 113mm away. ![]() Where traditional projectors would require a few metres of separation to create a 130in picture, The Premiere can do it over a distance of just 238mm. The LSP9T is an ultra-short throw projector, which means it can produce a huge image on your wall from just a few centimetres away.
