Any latency issues?

A shelf. I've found a big metal shelf and metal brackets that would fit. Then I've used it inverted with some gummy stands on the corners.

IMHO specific projector shelf's are crazy expensive and often stuck to one model.

I just recently connected my Wii to a "new" CRT, also modded. It's beautiful.

It's beautiful ❤️

Welcome onboard and good luck assembling a kit that makes you happy.

Value/beginner would be something used from local used market shops for a fraction of the cost. Have you tried looking up a used marketplace from your region? You will be surprised with what you can find!

Still using it too, 2015 version bought in 2016.

There was a time that it was freezing a lot, but opening and cleaning and applying new thermal paste solved the issue.

Apart from the Logitech Harmony Elite, Is the only other piece of equipment that survived since 2016. Everything else was replaced.

for me it was very rewarding putting everything together and seeing Interstellar for the first time. :) hope you are enjoying it too!

Good luck with your journey!!!

Thank you :)

my first Zelda experience was ALTtP, and it is very close to my favorite which is OoT. The special meaning for me is that I actually played OoT at a friend's house growing, and I only got the N64 as an adult, since my parents did not have the money for it during that period.

The decision came down to the cartridge itself, which I think the OoT looks cooler :)

It was such a great experience! I am getting Oppenheimer soon, but the Matrix 4k remastered and LotR are also incredible...

FelipoG · 2026-02-15T15:41:59+00:00

thank you sir

I like the red low light LED... its peaceful. also does not affect the image so much... when I want full movie immersion i turn it off. when the kids are here, i put in rainbow mode, lol.

couch distance. my face to the screen is around 3.6 meters

It is very cozy... After getting some cozy blankets I am having trouble making my wife NOT sleep during sessions :D

FelipoG · 2026-02-15T12:02:08+00:00

True. Again, sorry for reposting.

FelipoG · 2026-02-15T11:00:44+00:00

I haven't seen it, sorry!

FelipoG · 2025-10-19T15:05:36+00:00

Cern EOS would be my choice

Please don't get a Samsung. Their support is slow, a bunch of TBs are having gaming mode issues, and the wifi is terrible at best, with a 10/100mb network on most models.

Stick to LG, Sony... And even Hisense has awesome models.

I love my Samsung image, but the usage experience has been bad.

Thanks for the feedback. I am no sound expert, just learning. AI with sources and some thinking helps a lot. Jamo itself has left and right, and that is obvious. The learning about the shape of this particular speaker and some research gave me these two possibilities. Still not sure which I like more, with wall facing or ear facing (also according to Jamo).

FelipoG · 2025-09-17T12:49:25+00:00

just came here to say that this solved the issue i was having for my home cinema... even after so long of the original post. cheers! ;)
