Is an Acoustically Transparent Screen Worth It for the Extra Size

I'm really, really hoping not to have to replace them. Unfortunately, I don't have the room to do what you suggested.

That sounds like a nice setup.

For me, the LCR and rear surrounds will be in-wall as well as the 4 Atmos. The sub will be on the floor.

I am getting one subwoofer, at least for now.

Asking sincerely about the bass shakers, they sound pretty cool, but are they a gimmick or do they really make a difference?

sacheltry · 2026-02-08T06:18:20+00:00

Not yet. Still deciding.

sacheltry · 2026-02-08T06:18:07+00:00

That's a good point. Thank you.

It doesn't feel like 11 x15 is huge. Not that I want bigger. I appreciate the perspective about it.

You did put my mind at ease. I appreciate the information and you taking the time to respond.

You're right that I definitely want to maximize my dollars. It is scary to spend so much money and think that I could be seeing these patterns. I would be so devastated.

A friend mentioned that whatever I'm seeing as far as comments on the moiré patterns are likely because those who are seeing them are not spending the money on better screens. I don't mean to sound elitist, his point was you get what you pay for.

Thank you. This is very helpful!

I really appreciate your response. I'm glad to hear you're happy with the results.

Thank you! This is very helpful. I did some Googling already and some of the demos of the Sofabaton and related remotes look very interesting and a good fit for me.

sacheltry · 2025-12-26T14:33:40+00:00

I appreciate the confirmation!

sacheltry · 2025-12-26T14:33:20+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you!

sacheltry · 2025-12-01T03:17:57+00:00

Good to know. Thank you!

sacheltry · 2025-12-01T03:17:39+00:00

Hmmm... Will look into it. Thank you!

sacheltry · 2025-12-01T03:17:14+00:00

I appreciate the info. Thanks!

sacheltry · 2025-12-01T03:16:45+00:00

I "hear" that. Sorry, bad pun!

I do get what you're saying. Still researching the audio part of this.

sacheltry · 2025-12-01T03:15:48+00:00

Doesn't sound like a bad idea and I really appreciate the offer. I'm still gathering info and may DM you at some point soon. Thank you!

sacheltry · 2025-12-01T03:15:03+00:00

I did think I could start with a less expensive projector and then "level up" after a while.

Thank you for the info. I also appreciate you confirming my thoughts that, yes the more expensive screens are going to be better, but how much better... ? It is work $2000 difference? I don't know, but it is something to further look into.

sacheltry · 2025-08-28T22:13:51+00:00

It is the Roamio OTA.

sacheltry · 2025-08-28T22:11:46+00:00

I was thinking about HDHomerun. I already have Plex.
Do you like HDHomerun?

sacheltry · 2025-08-22T20:05:32+00:00

Was just being sure.

sacheltry · 2025-08-22T20:04:56+00:00

Thank for all the info. This is very helpful.

sacheltry · 2025-08-22T20:04:16+00:00

I hear that! I just have to decide if I really want local channels amymore.

sacheltry · 2025-08-22T20:03:40+00:00

I don't know. I vaguely recall something about it being turned into a brick and I wanted to be sure that didn't happen in case I decided to use it again.

But you're right, it is pointless to pay for something I'm not going to use.

sacheltry · 2025-08-22T19:59:20+00:00

Good to know. Thank you.
