Limitations:
1. They need a darkened room to work well.
2. they have a lamp life of 2000-3000 hours, if you watch it 4 hours a day the lamp will last about 1.5 years. If you watch a lot of TV make sure you have a spare bulb Handy.
3. They don't have built-in speakers so you'll need a surround sound system to complete your home theater.
