short throw projector well let's start with the Ben qht 2150 St so the 2150 St
with the Ben qht 2150 St so the 2150 St
with the Ben qht 2150 St so the 2150 St does cost about one hundred and fifty
does cost about one hundred and fifty
does cost about one hundred and fifty dollars more than the 671 St however the
dollars more than the 671 St however the
dollars more than the 671 St however the 2150 is superior in almost every way and
2150 is superior in almost every way and
2150 is superior in almost every way and has better contrast and most importantly

2200 lumens instead of 3000 like the 671
2200 lumens instead of 3000 like the 671 St so the 671 will work better in a
