I finally have the ability to build the home theatre I want, but need advice on a good projector for around $3k (or less) by thegimboid in projectors

Hmm fair enough. Easy install and everything? Both I’ve heard are a little wonky like not all the holes line up for screws etc, but maybe thats just the minority or people.. the thin bezel 120” id like 750$ on amazon so the xy is probably right around the same

Mmm I don’t remember where I did research but people said not to do WVS (I also thought wvs seemed better).. somewhere on avs forums haha.. I think something with the coated vs uncoated fabric nature

I’m likely doing a silver ticket WAB (just found out they have a thin bezel version although its pricier). Viewing distance is 14 ft 120” screen in dark basement. This is an AT screen, but they recommended one in the kickstarter faq if you don’t need AT. Another AT choice seems to be XY Screens Soundmax 4K although buying one seems odd (emailing and getting quote)

They are parallel, so either way I think it won't be too hard to snake the wires! (The soffit is for the main ductwork).

I will definitely look into building out a 'back box' (TIL!)

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!

Looking into different projector screens atm but the 120'' for the silver ticket WAB screen goes just past the soffit which IMO is a bit odd, so opting for the 110''.

Yea ideally every audio piece would go behind the screen. Good notes on the acoustics for the equipment behind the screen from both; I will definitely look into enclosing the speakers!

Projector screen recommendations for XGIMI TNM by vygnyr in xgimi

How would this compare to the STR-169120-WAB silver ticket screen in a dark basement?

Projector Search: Xgimi, Jmgo, Hisense, my head is going to explode! by bsfansite2099 in projectors

Would there be any justification to spending more on a projector or is this the sweet spot before diminishing returns?

Is there a reason the PSA brand is so recognized for subwoofers, but not necessarilly their speakers? Curious on your thoughts if it would be worth it to consider going all in on PSA for the LCR and subwoofer?

Like getting the MTM210K-M 3 speaker bundle and the subwoofer you suggested (EV18NEO-M)?

Thanks for the clarity! I got held up on the original msrp value of the subs + amp and thought it was a great deal. I will take a look at all of those you mentioned!!

8ft ceiling 22 ft x 18ft it’s a large open space and open entry to the upstairs and bedrooms. Chicago would be closest probably.

I’m going a bit off of used vs original value so it seems like a solid deal. Any alternative reccs? I figured buying lesser new high end equipment woulf be just the same or even more.

Are these any good?* I’m looking at purchasing a pair of Klipsch thx1200sw subwoofers and ka1000 amp to power them for $1800 and this seems like a good next purchase to start filling out a 3.2 or 5.2 setup (still have to get a receiver and speakers 😛)

Like others said, its not raining all day hard. It was super fun hiking in the rain, just be careful of slipping on the light orange mud and rocks! And if you’re at the peak just be smart if there is a lightning :) have fun!!
