I have known a few people that have used Goo for their screens with varying results. Most that I talked to weren't all that happy with the results. There are several threads on the forum from members that have built their own screens using various types of cloth. Personally I just used a flat white paint, put a three inch wide flat black border around it and was very happy with the results.

Hi Parker,

Thanks for the input. The reason we decided to wait on the sub is because the 7002 front towers have subs built in. When we were in the Magnolia demo room, we went back & forth w/ & w/out the stand alone sub. And honestly, the difference was minimal. And that was w/ the 7002s built in subs set at 50%. And we're pretty picky when it comes to sound. ( I guess once you hear really good speakers, there's no going back) Our thought was to get the whole thing put together & then if we feel we need a sub, we can add it. So I will definitely keep the SV in mind.

Am still up in the air on the screen. The Goo was just one temporary solution. My husband is going to have to build something to go over three windows that are on the wall where the screen will go anyway. This will serve 2 purposes...block the light from the windows & create a flat surface (over the molding) to hang a screen on. I figured we might as well paint it. Although fabric is a possibility too.

so, we're still noodling.
