I am in the process of setting up my HT. As part of that, I need to run cables to my projector (which I don't have yet, but it's only a matter of time...). I am thinking I need to run component video, composite video, DVI (or HDMI, depending on projector), and VGA. My cable runs are going to...

Hi all, I am trying to determine which remote I would like to purchase for my home theater. I have found and liked reviews from the Home Theater Master MX-3000 and the Pronto TSU-7000. However, there is another similar-looking remote out there that I have not been able to find very much...

(Edit: updated 3/14/2005 with wall screen progress picture.) WooHooooooooo! As of now, I've actually started construction on my home theater. (I guess I'd actually started before, but now you can SEE progress. Before I was just building my lights for the room, but nothing had been put up.)...

I got all distracted by other things for a while, but now I'm ready to get back to doing my media room. The next step in my project (hardly discernible from the FIRST step, but that would be discouraging...) is to install lighting sconces in the room. I want to install a dimmer that will...

Here is a drawing of what my plans are for my home theater. As of right now the room exists (drywalled in and painted, but repainting for HT), the wiring is in the walls for 7.1 Surround Sound, the blackout shades are installed, and the carpet is installed. The seats shown in the picture are...

I looked at the Light Fusion DIY screen over at AVSForum. Has anybody here had any experience with those screens (building, viewing, discussing...)? It looks like a slightly more challenging screen to build than other DIY projects, but the people that have talked about it are obviously very...

I think I've decided I'm going to go ahead and try building my own screen, on the theory that if it works out I will have saved myself a bunch of money, and if it doesn't I won't have wasted much. With that being said, should I finish the screen with a white finish or a grey finish? I have a...

I don't know if this is really the right place for this question... but it looks better than the other places, so I'll put it here. Please accept my apologies if it should have been elsewhere (and feel free to educate me). Once I get my HT set up, obviously I would prefer not to be dealing...

I posted this message in the HT Construction forum, but wanted to get input specifically on projectors and screens from this group. I will post the whole message here for context, but I am interested specifically here in answers to questions 2-5 from this forum. Thoughts? Greetings, all. I'm...

Greetings, all. I'm a new participant in this community, and would like some opinions from anybody that would be willing to share. We have lived in our new house for about 6 months, and I am finally ready to start working on my media room. My vision for this media room is that I'm going to...
