    Check out my new Movie Theater!

    Hey Prime sweet setup you got. I have some questions if you wouldn't mind answering them. How far are you seated from the screen and what size is it? Also is that fabric on your walls? how much did that run I would imagine pretty expensive. Thanks Tony

    Black out cloth vs seamless paper vs buildyourownprojectorscreen.com Which one?

Now that is only several inchs past the wall standing there. So I make a big enough whole giving the...

    Black out cloth vs seamless paper vs buildyourownprojectorscreen.com Which one?

    They do have a 92 inch deal package and even custom cut screens. which if they price isn't to outragous I would have them make it at 96. I fear 92 may be to small (for me) but I also feard 106 was to big for only 11 ft away. I even thought about placing the projector in the closet making a...

    So lost. Which projector to choose??

    Awesome. It seems as though DLP gives the rainbow affect from what I hear and LCD does not. Are you exp that sticks? If so it is to much where it would effect playing shooter games online. I got a PM from a vendor for the HD20 so looks like im' leaning that way. Thanks again.
