Hi everyone. We are in the process of building our home right now (we will be dried in by Monday!) I have a designated home theater room in our basement with no windows/ambient light that is approximately 15x27.
Do you think a room of my size (with 9 foot ceilings) would have room for a pretty big screen? I could never understand the "throw" talk about how big my screen might be able to get based on my room dimensions.
Also, I bought some audio equipment that was on sale but without a lot of knowledge. Do you think this would make a good sound system? Is there anything missing or something I should add/change/upgrade?
Here are my components purchased thus far:
PS3 (for blu ray and gaming)
Onkyo TX-SR608
Klipsch RC-52 II
Klipsch RW-12d
Klipsch RF-52 II B
Klipsch RF-52 II B
Klipsch RB-51 II
We also will have about 12 LED cans in the ceiling (with dimmers) for our lighting.
Finally I still need to buy my projector and screen. Any recommendations on either? I've liked what I have read about the Epson 8700 as it sounds like its good for HD TV/Sports as well as movies. I know my family will do some gaming with the PS3, but we'll MOSTLY watch NFL and College Basketball games in HD, and movies on the PS3.
I would be happy to post pictures of our room and again and would love any suggestions for component placement, projector and screen suggestions, etc. Thanks!!!
