Spend more on your speakers/audio. You can always upgrade to a better projector later. You can also upgrade to a better audio system in the future and put the old one in another room. You can also build your own screen to save money. I'm still using this projector. Sanyo PLC-SU07N lcd...
I apologize if someone has already posted these Yamaha DTS bomb somewhere else on the forum. The firmware installation pdf files are included in the firmware zip files by the way. RX-V3800 FIRMWARE UPDATE NOTICE (USA Model) http://www.yamaha.com/yec/softwareup...V3800-0016.zip...
I'm still using old school equipment so I prefer the 2 cable approach. Why can't Toshiba include two HDMI outputs so that I could run HDMI cable #1 to my projector for video and HDMI cable #2 to my receiver for audio? I would rather do a straight connection to connection instead of relying on...
I'd get a Yamaha or a Pioneer. http://www.yamaha.com/yec/avreceiver...l?CTID=5000400 http://www.yamaha.com/yec/avreceiver...l?CTID=5000300 http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pn...069809,00.html
I'm no expert but I'd contact Yamaha's tech support. https://www.yamaha.com/yec/customer/...l?CTID=5010270 My first and current receiver is a HTR-5250.

That's a very good price on the ultimate box set! I've gotten the majority of my "Sex and The City" box sets using gift cards and gift certificates. I said I was going to get a total to see how much I spent on all (7) box sets. Thx for the info about Costco!
BJ's has Sex and the City individual box sets for $17. Amazon.com has some of them for $20.99. Best Buy has them on sale for $19.99 this week. Amazon.com was a better deal for me since I used a gift card for two of the box sets. I ended up getting two box sets for $16.98 with a $25 gift card...
I was going to put posters in my theater room but changed my mind because of my subwoofer. I think if you can put the posters in a room before you enter the theater would be better. (The entrance, etc.)
Yes, you don't need that many lumens, especially if your room is dedicated and/or 100% of the walls are black. My old Sanyo has less than 1000 and it looks great.
Real crazy question, what if your projector is mounted in the ceiling. What about someone who is using ceiling tiles? Has anyone used a ups in which your projector is ceiling mounted? If so, where is the ups in relation to the projector?
I was invited to an Xmas party last Dec. and the people throwing the party had a karaoke machine. What a blast! Has anyone purchased a karaoke machine or built and/or used a laptop/desktop for karaoke? I think I've found a new addiction, karaoke. I've been going to this karaoke forum daily...
Here is a mini list that I created a while ago in .doc and .pdf format.
I'm sure the list needs updating badly.

When I was still living at home, my Mom caught me watching "The Postman Always Rings Twice" with Jessica Lange and Jack Nicholson on cable tv. Boy was I embarrased.
I haven't got a display capable of showing these HD films yet... 1. Price - I don't want to even pay $500 for a HD DVD player 2. Price - I don't want to pay $30-$40 for HD-DVDs 3. Price - All the movies that I want would probably come on both formats
