The best 1080p projector on the market without braking the bank is the JVC DLA-RS2 Reference Series ($8000). I own the RS2 and am very happy with it's performance, I ditched my Seleco HT300 (to many problems)

By the way Meridian uses the JVC DLA RS2 change the name and sells it for $15,000!!!
If the JVC is too pricey the Panasonic PT-AE2000U ($2600)
