|
|
My RTC2200 is on order, and since for some reason I have two nearly identical projectors, the idea playing with a stack comes to mind. Just for kicks. Will the transcoder with its cable driver drive both projectors on short cables (6')?

They are PG9+'s and are already setup to the same screen but on different sources. I am aware of of some of the drawbacks of stacking but it's more of an experiment than anything. If I understand Kim correctly the HDFury/RTC2200 combo can feed both projectors with a simple splitter. Any advice is appreciated as I am a novice only having a CRT since January.

I tried with a pair of Marquee's and there wasn't enough range in the Geometry as they were designed by factroy to stack over/under. Side stacking really pushed the Geometry but If I could do it I would.

Thanks draganm but I'm thinking over-under. One on the floor, the other above it on a table. I expect I'll have to fully setup the lower projector first as I won't be able to open the cover later. I realize this is going off topic so I won't pursue it here anymore.
