Just Projectors review of the NEC PA522U: The PA522U is packed full of features, that will give you a bright high definition image in the boardroom or conference room. At 5200 lumens, the pa522u will cope even in the largest of boardrooms giving you a clear, vivid image throughout the day - this projector could also be used in public spaces for signage and advertising. If 5200 lumens isn't quite enough then the PA522u can be stacked up to 4 times, achieving close to 20,000 lumens. The image will be bright but it will also be in brilliant detail as it has WUXGA resolution (higher than Full HD), meaning it will have a high impact. With 6 optional lenses available, the pa522u has ultimate flexibility in terms of how far back it goes, with anything ranging from short to ultra long throw lenses. This is fairly unique for a projector of this specification, as it can accept a 4K input with NECs new scaler chip, completely future proofing yourself. The connectivity is particularly impressive, with 2 x HDMI in, Display Port in and HDMI output, allowing you to loop through HDMI to another projector / monitor keeping the digital HD quality. Installation will be easy with the pa522u as well, as it has both vertical and horizontal lens shift making positioning easy. 360 degree installation would make this ideal for entrance foyers, museums and sensory rooms too as it can point directly at the floor or ceiling with full operation. As expected with NEC the build quality is brilliant so it's a projector that you can install and have confidence that it will last. For more information check out the PDF link on the left hand side.

As this is a high end model, stock may take 2-5 working days to deliver.

About Projectors

Buying a projector can be a daunting task with so many things to consider like: how bright does it need to be, how far away does it need to be from the screen, how do I connect my device to it, and all the while keeping within a budget - this is why we have trained advisers ready to chat or call on 01256882629. Around 9 times out of 10 a projector like the Optoma HD146X or the Epson EB-FH52 will fit the space, but here are a few pointers to help your own search:

  • Brightness - there is a common misconception that brighter is always better. This can be the case in bright venues like churches, but in scenarios where colour quality is key you are better dimming the lights and having a projector with less lumens.
  • Resolution - Try to go for at least 1080p for home cinema, if not Ultra HD or True 4K for the dedicated rooms. WXGA maye still be ok for less image-important setups like classrooms.
  • Throw Ratio - The closer to the screen the projector needs to be, the lower the number, but this is also relative to the image size. We'd recommend giving us a call to help find the right one if you are limited as to where you can place it.

I hope this helps with your search but if you still need some help then just give us a shout or read our more in-depth Projector Buying Advice Guide.

About Just Projectors

We provide advice on the phone listening to your requirements we are able to help you get the right one as we have trained staff . We have a network of installers to cover your area. On higher end models we can arrange a loan or demo. We think most people should buy HD resolution , they are so affordable now and you wouldn't buy a 5 year old laptop so why buy SVGA which is over 20 years old. Yes XGA & WXGA are ideal for simple presentations and education use but we have all been use to decent home TV's or high resolution phones or tablets so why put a huge image on the wall/screen which is inferior. There are some great brands out there like BenQ, ViewSonic, Epson, Sony and less known ones like EIKI or Vivitek. Yes you can buy the wrong one, this is why we still offer advice rather than just an add to cart website. We have a price promise, we see the models, we often put one against another and see which one is best. We only buy UK stock, which has higher warranty standards to ensure you get real value for money. We don't sell the cheap brands as the lumens aren't verified. Look at our name it tells you that we are committed to this product and we have a great reputation in the market place for price and customer service. We supply the UK but also in Ireland, we offer a 1-3 day service to Ireland.
