See if I can get rid of the tv stand and put everythin in the closet then I have space for the towers to be on the floor and not block the projector image and use a bigger screen, but man I dont want to get rid of the tv stand //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

You need to get that wall as flat and polished smooth as possible. Why not just do a drop down screen? If your gonna do it, do it proper //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Nice choice on projecter too, always loved them...

Congratulations on your new toy!

However, I feel you will be highly disappointed. I say this because I visited a room with a HT setup at the Denver RMAF that had a projector in it. The screen was 100 inches in diameter and the projector was a HD, DLP, 999999 gazillion lumen's, the best one out on the market that day blah, blah, blah...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

The host was gracious enough to sit me down and asked what I wanted to see. Since this was a HD projector I asked if he had any HD or Blue Ray media? He had both. Since I own a PS3, I asked him to put on something in Blue Ray. After a few minutes of fumbling around behind me with nothing but a small reading light (the room was pitch dark) a bright image finally appeared. It was Peter Gabriel in concert or something. As I looked at the projected image for a while I wondered to myself when in the heck was he going to put on something in High Def format???

I turned around and asked him if he was going to play a Blue Ray disk and his reply was: "This is a Blue Ray disk!"

The image looked HORRIBLE. No detail whatsoever! It was terrible. Grainy and fuzzy from end to end. And the fans on it were LOUD :crazy:I have always known for projectors to have crappy picture quality and this proved it. There is no way I would plop 3 g's on a projector. But, that's just me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

sounds like he had a shitty BD.

 

[docutech 10+ year member]

If you are referring to the screen, it was top of the line, so he stated.

 

[1loudsuv 10+ year member]

Actually their is no peter gabriel in concert on blu ray... so you where watching dvd. (searched and found nothing)

BD = Blu-Ray Disk
The graininess comes from the source media, not the player or the TV.

true like 300 and some shots of transformers, plus having a plasma or my tv in a dedicated ht room doesnt really feal like an ht.... now If I tell my friends I have a dedicated ht room and they come to my house and see a 108" screen with an hd projector and the crazy sound then they will be like wtf wow

It was a Paul Simon concert. I stand corrected

And DBFan187, it may be my lack of understanding the HD formats but I thought that Blu Ray and HD was supposed to be superior in picture quality.

I am not comparing projector to umm...let's say...LCD but I have never experienced the type of grain on my television while playing Blu Ray media.

 

[1loudsuv 10+ year member]

another one that is also not on blu ray.

Paul simon was a dvd.

Odd twist of things...

More definition of grain... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I think that I have only seen 2 maybe 3 projectors that I have really liked, some people love them, it is just preference. I can't remember the names either, but I remember they were 10+ professional projectors with refocused lenses so they could play on a small screen. One setup was actually stereoscopic. Which was super tight.
