This remarkably vivid home projector has deep inky blacks, without a five-figure price tag. Premium home theater projectors often come at premium prices, usually north of $10,000. The Xgimi Titan Noir Max is different. It's priced at $5,999, well under five figures, but it supports IMAX Enhanced mode and has outstanding picture quality, a 10,000:1 native contrast ratio, 7,000 lumens brightness, and a unique dual intelligent iris system that makes on-the-fly adjustments. Even though Xgimi has been around for more than a decade and is known for affordable home cinema models, the company ran a Kickstarter campaign for the high-end Titan Noir Max home theater projector and raised $19 million.
