Based on LCD technology, the Philips Astaire Deluxe projects images in a Homecinema environment, with technical specs listing 1000 ANSI lumens, a contrast of 600:1 and a WVGA 854 x 480 resolution. According to Philips, the lamp has a durability of 6000 hours. With two hours of daily operation, this corresponds to a period of 8.2 years. Should a perpendicular setup to the screen not be possible, the integrated keystone correction (horizontal and vertical) helps to realign the image into a perfect rectangle. A look at the light output reveals: The 1000 ANSI lumens are sufficient to illuminate an image width of up to 321 cm in darkened rooms. If room light is present, we recommend not exceeding a maximum width of 214 cm. In terms of video signals, the device processes resolutions up to Full HD 1080P. In the specifications, the operating noise is listed at a mere 29 decibels, indicating very quiet cooling. This model dates back to 2003 and is no longer part of Philips's current product range.
