    Nils, Thanks for the offer, I will definitely be in touch. Can you shoot me your phone # in email ([email protected])? Would love to have your assistance/input.

    Rajiv, you may just have to get a dedicated AC unit so that the theater is cold enough to keep your wife awake! That's what they did during many of my college classes many years ago. ;) Thanks to all of the hosts and participants. My wife and I had a great time! We'll definitely want to have...

    I'm probably not going to be able to do dinner tonight -- finishing up my screen frame. My receiver came in yesterday and I want to try to through together audio/video capability to my theater before the meet on Sat. I do plan on meeting you guys at the first stop after dinner. I will be at...

    I'm not going to be able to make dinner either. I want to finish building a screen for Saturday and need a couple of hours Friday night. I still plan on making the theaters. Can you please email me the adress for the first stop? Thanks!

    Since my theater is about half-completed, 45 minutes probably won't be necessary and we should be able to get to the next stop on time. I plan on rigging up a screen and the projector to give yall some sense of the final product. Colin, I'm okay with you sharing my address to RSVPers. I'll...

    Colin, What do you think about posting an updated list with rough areas of town of the destination theaters? Could help us facilitate carpooling, etc. Thanks, as always, for handling the logistics!

    I think I saw that Dave lived out in Lakeway, too. Maybe we can carpool?

    I'm intrigued, Nils, as I haven't been to the Oasis in a few years. I vote for the Oasis! :)

    I'm not a big fan of the food at the Oasis, but if we can get a private room that would be cool. I'll call Johnny Fins to verify, but I believe they have some private rooms as well. How big of a group are we expecting?

    Johnny Fins is also an okay venue right on the water.

    I'd like to volunteer to host a leg of the event. We're about halfway through construction of our dedicated theater and I'd love to show it off and get feedback (before the drywall goes up). I live in Lakeway and would be pretty close to several of the others.

    I've heard (hah, no pun intended) from a couple of sources that above the screen is often preferred because we are less able to localize sounds originating above our ear than below. If I were you, I'd just rig it up above and see how it sounds.

    17th is much better for me.

    Oops, my wife pointed out that we have a wedding to go to at 5:30 on the 10th. So, I've got until about 4pm that day. :frowning:

    My room is coming along at a good (albeit slow) clip! :) Framing is done. HVAC is done. Electrical will be done next Tuesday.I'll be running conduit this weekend and starting to put up insulation. Next weekend, more insulation. Then, the big D -- drywall. I'd be happy to host a DIY event. Let...

    I'm game for a DIY meet. I'll have completed my DIY screen by then. I'm also looking into DIY interconnects but the cost of the tools is a little steep. Would like to know that they're worthwhile before making the plunge. I can bring my L300, Jeff... it's in no danger of being mounted to the...
