    And so it begins... Attic Reclaim

    It's amazing how time flies. I've been enjoying this setup for close to a couple of years now, although the projector went in for repair a couple of times, and the second time they didn't have replacement parts, so last month I got a "B" stock projector. At first, I was disappointed that...

    Show Off Your System! The HTF Theaters Thread

    Thanks! The Oppo wasn't available anymore when I pulled the trigger on the Panasonic. Compared to the old Sony player I had been using, it's much better (and way more expensive). I like the fact that it has a built-in tone mapping algorithm specifically for the projector. I watch a lot of...

    Show Off Your System! The HTF Theaters Thread

    That was a battle with the wife. I was all about "function over aesthetics", but she wouldn't have it. She still thinks it's overkill that I'm planning more speakers and more diffusion (QRD diffusion panels on the side and front walls, diffusion panels on the ceiling). And, yes, every...

    Show Off Your System! The HTF Theaters Thread

    A year and a half later, and I've switched to a 135" 16x9. The 2:1 and 1.85:1 content just wasn't as immersive from the back row, and more and more shows / movies that I enjoy watching are moving away from 2.35-ish content. Now I'll be adding additional speakers to the rear and optimizing...

    Do you buy older Blu-ray discs or do you wait for a possible UHD release?

    I made an exception recently and picked up Titanic in 3D. 😊

    Do you buy older Blu-ray discs or do you wait for a possible UHD release?

    I've started to limit what I upgrade now since some of them have been disappointing. Raiders of the Lost Ark was one of them (I picked up the 4K boxed set). It wasn't any different than the 1080p Blu-ray from what I could tell. I also picked up the Skywalker saga in 4K, Lord of the Rings...

    In the market for a 4k projector

    I’m loving my Sony VPL-VW715ES. Even these old Knight Rider episodes look pretty decent. 😄

    AVR for PC setup?

    For that price he could just buy a 5.1 PC speaker system. I have a Logitech Z-5500 on my 2D gaming rig that I've had for over a decade. :)

    AVR for PC setup?

    But then you'd be limited to 4K@60 Hz. Hmmm.... Now I'm beginning to feel your pain. :wacko:
