In general, do projectors always have that "washed out, not sharp" look?
Its one of the reasons I might avoid a projector set up

no...he has the lights on...also (for me @ least) it's hard to take a good pic of one...I took a few pics for a kodi thread...and they looked grainy when I posted them even tho it was clear on my end...but I was posting the pic just to show an app I was using...posted another pic in a mayweather thread just to show someone the size of it...shit was still grainy tho...but actually watching it in my living room it's 1080 quality

...just to add on to my response...you really gotta set one up and see how it looks for yourself...so many ppl who came thru felt they were so "informed" about projectors but when I turned the shit on they turn into kids watching TV for the first time...literally eyes and mouth wide open type shit...just make sure the output is full HD 1080p...best buy has a great return policy...never had any issue opening up electronics to try em out and return them that same damn day if I don't want it
heres my set up.im in the process in changing it around but here is what it looks like now then i will take a few pics when its all done.i got alot of new ideas im about to do to it.its a little messy but its a mancave what more can i say lol.the black and chrome box has my dji drone in it.

My projector looks as sharp as any 1080p tv, if the lighting is an issue you have to get a projector that has a high lumens rating. I have a Epson 3020 which is good but noisy. The new projectors are quieter.
Here is a good link for research

I have a projector and I'm trying to make sure I have everything to set it up. I want to know what I need to run from the projector to pull into my equipment since the projector will be on the ceiling? I'm just trying to plug in a Mi box, Mac mini, receiver, and speakers. I'm renting so I want to limit holes. Any suggestions?
True, not only were the lights on in my pic but the big window in the back provided lots of light to the room. Get what you want pleiboy. I have a Samsung 4K ultra tv 65", a Panasonic plasma I think 60" and the 12' projector screen. They are also listed in reverse order of preference. Oh yeah, I have some rokus in bathrooms and guest bedrooms I don't understand. And that bs above the fireplace in the pic.

The pic didn't come out well, but you can watch with the lights on, but it is no where as good as if the lights are off. There are projectors that do well with lights on. I took a pic with lights on and one with them off. I am sold on projectors, my next one will be more on the higher end but waiting for the 4k to drop in price
I got the screen from Amazon Elite 120" fixed screen $303
The Epson 3020 projector dropped in price, now $600 (probably discontinued) 1080p
Yamaha V575 receiver $299 (discontinued)
Polk Sub woofer for $99 at Best Buy
3 Yamaha in wall speakers around 100 - 120 a piece, and 2 speakers in the ceiling

Anytime, let me know if you need anymore info.
I would try to avoid carpet. Never know what water issues might occur. And that shit will stink once that carpet gets wet
Why? First? For a small one. No
see man I have no clue about this stuff, I was told that it would cost 10,000 just to do a basic professional finished basement. I said hell I can do some of the basic shit, I guess looking on line at the different videos it seems cool, but of course the wife thinks that since I haven't done this stuff that I will be "****** regging" it and it's going to be fucked up. I told her I think that I could do just about everything except the bathroom, cause it doesn't really look that hard. am I right or and I fooling myself?
Yea 10k sounds about right if your starting from scratch with exposed wall and ceilings. Yea its not hard just frame the walls out @ 16 inches. insulate and sheetrock. The part where u might not (or maybe) want to mess with is the electrical and plumbing.
Was bjs had an LG 60 uhd 4k smart tv for $699 couldnt pass it up. Also got an lg sound bar. Im pretty much done. My neighbor taking me to the army spot over the weekend to stock out the bar
