Well I'm still here in Manor. Still looking for a job in Michigan so I can move up to my house there.

Well I'm still here in Manor. Still looking for a job in Michigan so I can move up to my house there.

I am living in Manor for now. Just had back surgery 2.5 weeks ago, but recovering well and able to get out if someone gets something planned.

What does GTG mean?

I sold my house here in Texas, but I am still around for now. Living in Manor until I can find a job in Michigan. Lots of free time on my hands if anyone is planning any movie nights. Having back surgery next week, but will be up for anything after that.

Hey Jonathan, How's your wife? Last time we talked it sounded like she was pretty sick. If I was sticking around, I might take you up on that seating, but I am going to be off to Michigan in the next couple months. With the relocation costs, my budget is pretty tight. I actually got my IB sub...

If it is soon, I'd be up for it. I'll be moving to Michigan in the next couple months though.

I'm still around for now. I had my IB sub installed for a while, but now that I am planning to sell the house I took it back out.

Yeah, it's too bad. I really enjoyed the activities with the group. Christmas was great. Spent it with my kids, mom, brother and niece in Phoenix. New Years was pretty uneventful. I spent it working on my bathroom remodel and finished off by watching a couple movies and was in bed before...

Anyone still around? Haven't heard from anyone for ages.

I'm game, but I will not be available until after June 10th. I finally got my IB sub built and installed if anyone would like to see/hear it. The theater is still not finished, so haven't done any tuning yet.

The two subs are eventually going to be replaced by the IB sub, if I can ever get the manifold built for it.

I'm projecting on a 125" screen. I don't think I could ever go back to something smaller now. What is this? "2008 GtG" I bought all the stuff to build my own speakers a long time ago, but haven't gotten around to doing it. Still using some very old Optimus front tower speakers, some not...

I'm still around and still in need of help to get my subwoofer box and entertainment center built. I did pick up an electric screen though, so I'm not projecting on the wall anymore and I upgraded from my old Zenith DSV-100 projector to a Panasonic PT-AX100U. Of course, as it always works, if I...

You know me, I'm always in. I am working Monday through Friday these days, so work will probably cooperate a little more now than it has in the past.

I might have gone with a DLP projector if I could have found any reviews on the current models, but it's like DLP has fallen off the face of the earth. The Sanyo and the Panasonic are pretty much the only projectors being talked about. I opted for the Panasonic. I'd like to bring it over and try...

Mark, You are welcome to come blow it up on my property if you want. Lee Nevermind, I see that that post about blowing up your sub was made a year ago.

Does anyone in the group have a Panasonic PT-AX100U and/or Sanyo PLV-Z5? I plan to order one of these this month, but I am having a hard time deciding which one to get. What are the current comparable DLP projectors?

Give me a time and directions and I'll be there.

Saturday is better for me, but can probably do Friday as well. You might get a better turn out if you post in the Austin Home Theater Forum Poker thread I linked below. http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htf/...d.php?t=189769

Looks like the destruction is coming along nicely. I always like that part, the problem is that when your done, typically you have to put it all back together again.

I don't have the answers to your questions, but I'm sure some of the other guys can answer your questions. Here is a link to another one of the Austin threads. http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htf/...68#post3065268 There is also an Austin Home Theater Forum Poker thread, if you play poker.

I'm originally from Michigan and even I had to button up my jacket today.

I get an email whenever anyone posts in this thread, the Austin DIY thread and/or the Austin Poker thread. I can see your post.

I'd like to see that too. I have been considering upgrading my projector and was looking at the AE900, so would like to see one in action.

Wish I could make it, but I have to work until midnight tonight. :frowning:

I'm up for a movie night, but I am out of town until the 29th.

Is it just me or is Parts Express no longer carrying Peerless drivers?

This is going to be an exceptionally long work week for me, so I may be too whooped by Friday, but if I have any energy left I'll try to make it. Matts wife and kids have been out of town for a couple weeks, so he is getting pretty stir crazy. I imagine he would be up for a game as well.

Anyone in the group ever played around with modifying a DLP projector for better picture? Things like darkening in the clear section of the color wheel and sealing the light path? I'm thinking about trying some of these things while I have my projector apart replacing the lamp.
