Benq1085ST for $1450 Canadian ( $1100 USD) is a solid price?

Hey all,

Been creeping on here for a couple year. Ended up getting a Skytrack and have a PC all ready to go. Seems like everyone really likes the Benq1085ST. I found on in canada here for $1450 CAN ($1100 USD). Safe to say thats a pretty fair price?

There is a used one on ebay right now with under 50 hours. It is at $405 US with 20 mins to go.

I believe the 1085ST has been replaced by the 2150ST, so you might search for that if you are looking at new ones.

Thanks so much. Looks like they dont ship to Canada, but I will look at the 2150. just starting the planning phase of a 16 x 9 foot sim in my garage. Skytrak on its way today

I just purchased a 2150st on Amazon for $999(US). Thing is awesome! Great to move into living room and watch movies too.

Good to hear. I have been back and forth. That seems like an ok price. I wont be using it for any movies and am probabaly going with a superplex screen so im not sure IF I need this over say a Optima 1080 or something.
Got a i7 GTX 970 computer lined up for TGC. Skytrak came yesterday.

Second the 2150ST, it's the new & improved version of the 1085ST. A cinch to setup, very bright and excellent quality for home theater.

Hey, sorry to piggy back on your thread Mike... but I'm in the same boat. Trying to figure out which projector to buy. I have a foresight gc2 and fsx software on the way. Will have 10' from projector to screen(Carl's premium). I noticed in a lot of pictures the room is dark with just a light on the ball. I plan on adding swing cameras for practice and plan on using sim with hitting area well lit. Would the Benq2150 be bright enough? I'm ok spending a little more to get the right projector.

Im ordering the 2150. Looks like you cant go wrong.
