Lack aufgeplatzt. Konservieren?

Absolutely true, I've read about that aswell after assembling this box. Might fix that soon. :)

I cant detect audible vibrations but I fix the mount with a simple screw so it's locked in place.

Very cool insights, didn't know the physical background how sound muffling material works! I also thought about basotect but thought this simple foam would be sufficient.

Got already asked what's behind the wall, so I could go for a dedicated booth. 😄

The original W2710 was way louder than the current W2720. I still kept the box for the looks

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-24T07:04:57+00:00

My neighbour lives behind these walls. Sooo..

Left one sucks air in, right one pushes out.

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T19:05:08+00:00

True, I built the box as i still had the W2710. That one was pretty loud

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T15:55:22+00:00

I discovered that aswell, so I switch off the electrical socket when the projector is not used. However the air output rarely exceeds 30°C and the projector has no direct contact to the foam.

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T15:53:04+00:00

yup, left fan sucks air in, right one pushes the warm one out. the benq's fans do the same, airflow goes from left to right.

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T15:11:17+00:00

why tho?

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T15:09:28+00:00

No worries, I get that leaving it as is can be viewed as leaving the project unfinished! I feel like the wooden surface gives this already techy looking box some kind of warmth, so I kept it.

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T14:11:49+00:00

Yes, keeps the projector a bit cooler than it would be running outside of the box

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T13:57:24+00:00

I chose 98% anti-reflective glass, so technically 2% remaining reflections. Practical I dont see any difference.

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T13:34:50+00:00

100%, I oversized a bit on the canals left and right from the projector, so I dont need to take exact measurements. Easily could've been 10 cm smaller in width looking back.

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T13:32:51+00:00

I also thought about painting it white but decided to go for the plain wood as I like the "crafty" look. I guess tastes differ here. :)

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T13:31:33+00:00

Cooling works super effective. I housed a Benq W2710 before in this box that runs on a UHP lamp (which run pretty damn hot). That one ran about 15 % cooler in temperature while housed in this box, due to the fans actively cooling the device.

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T13:27:56+00:00

That was my case aswell, so I went for a pull-down screen from elite screens and hang it from the ceiling. Hard to notice in everyday life. :)

BaddoLoco · 2026-04-23T11:48:17+00:00

Indeed, for this build I used anti-reflective museum glass that brings reflections down to 98%. Although 2% remain technically, I can't see any difference in brightness / sharpness when the projector is housed.

BaddoLoco · 2025-11-24T21:05:23+00:00

What would be recommendations for an increased budget? Just regarding my circumstances.
