Greetings everyone - I'm new here. My kind younger brother gave me a PJ that he pulled out of a customer's house, and directed me to this forum... Thumbs Up

I'm wondering if anyone can help me figure out what is unique to the Runco DTV-940? So far I've learned that it has tinted lenses, and some internal modifications to light up the Runco logo. I've managed to find the Runco and Barco documentation for this projector, and I think I'm good to go in that regard. But it's just my curiosity at this point that has me wondering what else it was that Runco might have done to this nice unit besides just their label.

Thanks for your help (and yes - I've searched the site already before bothering to post - LOL)

My understanding is that they raised the price considerably... Smile

I think that's about it. Once Runco switched to Barco, they really didn't do much.

HD 145's that are color filtered...I believe they usually tried to make all Runco's color filtered.
