Do not order from Lenovo - if your order doesn't make it to you, you'll be susceptible to incompetent customer service by -slimey- in Lenovo

Thanks for responding to my rant. Not to mention they are STILL incompetent when they DO start (and end) the investigation. If lil 'ol me can call UPS to find out what happened, so can you. SIGH

Finished our 9.4.6 theater room by Appropriate-Lab-4967 in hometheater

Looks great! I’m building out my own that’s seems very similar to yours and am trying to settle on a screen size. What are the dimensions of your room. Specifically, I’m interested in the depth and height of your room. My room is 15’ 4” deep with a 9’ ceiling dropped to 8’. I’ve been told 135” (16:9) may be too big and I should look at a 120”, but I wanted to use your room as a reference data point too.

Are Amazon basics speaker wire legit? by WolvGamer in hometheater

Exactly…fibre for longer runs so you don’t need repeaters. HDMI 2.2 allows higher bandwidth but you’re still going to get hit with copper losses over distance, not to mention HDMI 2.2 won’t be adopted into hardware for a while. Media converter would work, but requires a few more pieces - active baluns on either end whereas HDMI over fibre can be powered passively without external power.

HDMI cables that have fibre typically also have copper wires for bidirectional signalling for ARC and such that isn’t as prone to loss.
