"Panasonic has revealed details on its new PT-AE1000E projector: its first to feature a ‘full HD’ resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. This means it perfectly matches the native resolution of Sky’s HD broadcasts and 1080-line films on Blu-ray and HD DVD discs, potentially delivering a purer, crisper picture."

"Overall, the Panasonic PT-AE1000U produced rich colors and dynamic looking images."
"Wow. First of all the Panasonic's 2:1 zoom lens means you have as much front to back placement flexibility as any home theater projector on the market."
"The great thing about the PT-AE1000U, is you can pop it out of the box and slap it down on a table, run some cables to it, and enjoy a great looking picture, even before you figure out where you are going to permanently place it."
"If you are ready for the big time - 1080p - then you should seriously consider this Panasonic. It will provide impressive performance and great color, without fuss, and without breaking the bank."
"In the case of Panasonic's new 1080p home theater projector, the PT-AE1000U has a MAP of only $3999, placing it a full $500 less than its closest competition, the Mitsubishi HC5000 home theater projector."
"The excellent "out of the box" performance in terms of picture quality, especially color
accuracy, is another huge plus for the PT-AE1000U. The Mitsubishi does a really good job out of the box in terms of color, but I definitely have to say that the PT-AE1000U is even better."

"The AE1000 is designed for dark room viewing—a projector for the purist who wants elegant home theater performance and high definition 1080p imagery"
"Panasonic has achieved a black level performance with the AE1000 that surpasses anything we have yet seen with LCD technology. And their Smoothscreen filter erases any hint of pixel structure. Very low levels of digital noise and excellent scaling produce the best standard definition images we've seen on any of the new 1080p products."
"And we can state unequivocally that owners of the Panasonic AE1000 will enjoy higher picture quality from standard DVD than will owners of any of the other low-priced 1080p projectors released this fall."
"Overall, the AE1000 is an impressive product for a great price. Anyone who upgrades their home theater with the Panasonic AE1000 will be amazed with the exciting visual experience that it can provide."

"This could be the greatest thing to ever come out of Panasonic—at least from the projector side. The 1080p unit has a brightness of 1,100 lumens and a contrast ratio of 11,000:1 (that’s not a typo!)."

"It's also clear these projectors are a far cry from the ones we're used to seeing in conference rooms, which usually have a very visible "raster," or grid pattern of pixels. This pattern is hard to pick out in the Mitsubishi's output, and practically invisible on the Panasonic. The company said it has reduced pixilation by adapting technology from its digital cinema projectors, the kind that go into movie theaters to replace film projectors."

"Up and running the AE1000E produces one of the most vivid 1080p images I’ve seen to date with much of the credit for this going to the company’s new ‘Dynamic Iris’."
"Still none of these goodies are much use without a huge image to show them off so I was amazed to see the AE1000E create a pixel perfect 100 in screen from a distance of just 3m with the ability to stretch even further."

Awesome! We purchased our Panasonic PT-AE1000U projector from Visual Apex online and everything went perfectly. Fast shipping, the accesories they recommended for this particular model worked perfectly, and the payment transaction was simple and honest. Everything an online purcahse should be. On top of everything else, they had the best price and they called after we received the equipment to make sure everything was working properly. I've never had an online company do that before. Awesome!

Highly recommended. I first used Projector Central to make a product selection and then a seller selection. Visual Apex shipped my Panasonic PT-AE1000U projector on time via Fedex Saver. The projector arrived before the promised date.

Highly recommend Visual Apex. I recently decided to jump in the Home Theater game but before I could make my first purchase I was sent overseas. After several weeks I decided that living overseas was not going to hinder my desire for the large screen experience. After checking local dealers in the Netherlands and being quite shocked at the prices of projectors and Home Theater accessories I did a search and came up with a handful of U.S dealers willing to ship overseas. Fortunately for me I chose VISUAL APEX.
I placed a call to their sales department and spoke with Rich Demming.
He was VERY knowledgeable and helpful in making up my mind to purchase the Panasonic PT AE1000U.
I recieved the projector and accessories I ordered on time and in perfect condition.
I highly reccomend visual Apex and its staff for quality, friendly service and price.

Highly recommend VA I purchased the new Panasonic AE1000 projector (and ceiling mount) from this company and was very happy with the price and the service. The shipping was free and the staff was very friendly. I had originally found Visual Apex through avsforum where other folks there recommended Visual Apex. At the time I was helping a buddy design a home theater system. He also had a great experience with the vendor. I highly recommend them.

Best customer service. I bought a Panasonic PT-AE1000U projector. The price was just a bit higher than Bronx electronic stores, but they made it up by giving a break on 2 day shipping...didn't want the expensive projector shipped ground. CSR who took my order was exceptionally helpful with the ordering process and followed up with an email within 24 hours on the status of the shipment. Received the projector in excellent condition. Received another email and follow up phone call from the manager after a week checking up satisfaction.
Will definitely shop here again...one suggestion I have for them is to expand their product line...to take on Best Buy and Circuit City.
Starbucks, Southwest Airlines and Nordstrom- (3 best customer service companies) Watch out...you have competition.

VA will not disappoint. I bought my first projector, a Panasonic PT-AE1000U, along with a motorized Optoma Greywolf II screen from Visual Apex for a couple of reasons.
- Competitive pricing
- Good user reviews
I wasn't sure if I could count on the integrity of the reviews, since I wasn't familiar with Projector Central, but I'm impressed enough to come back here to let you know that you will not be disappointed.
In an age where good customer service has taken a back seat to the bottom line, Visual Apex brings it all back front and center. I called to make an adjustment to my order (added hdmi cabling), and I subsequently called back with questions about the screen and also optimal placement of my projector. I was met with warm, friendly, articulate people who were quite helpful. In addition, I received my shipment days earlier than I expected.
If you've done your research and you're now looking at a list of sellers for your much anticipated home theater projector, it's down to a matter of trust. Hopefully, I've relaxed you a bit.

She said it would be no problem to have my projector delivered the next day. (panasonic AE1000). I quickly received email verification including my shipping date. Sure enough there it was.

Strongly recommend VA as an online retailer. I purchased the Panasonic PT-AE1000U through Visual Apex before it had been shipped by Panasonic. Delivery was prompt and included followups by sales reps to be sure that I was satisfied. I buy a lot of stuff online and this is unusual. I can strongly recommend them as an online retailer.

You can't go wrong with VA. I bought a Panasonic PT-AE1000U home theater projector and an Optoma Greywolf II screen from Visual Apex. They assisted me with adding appropriate cabling to my order and also helped out with figuring optimal placement of my projector. The customer service at this company stands way above the crowd. You can't go wrong with the shipping, the technical expertise, and the price.
