    Seven subs and a velvet ceiling, but the screen choice is the odd one out

    A 7.7.4 build in a basement nook, three and a half years of work, mostly used and new gear bought piecemeal. The nook is 10 by 14 opening into a bigger basement, the back wall sits 22 feet from the screen wall, and the seat is 12 feet from a 145 inch screen at a 45 to 50 degree viewing angle...

    Sitting seven feet from a 135 inch screen changes what you notice in a film

    Someone posted a build that is 10.7 feet wide and about 12 deep, with a 135 inch 16:9 screen and seating between roughly 6.5 and 7.3 feet back depending on how far the chair reclines. That works out near a 70 degree viewing angle, which is a long way past what the reference standards ask for and...

    Seven subs and triple black velvet, then a CLR screen in a fully dark room

    If you've gone to the trouble of covering the viewing area walls and ceiling in triple black velvet, the light rejecting screen might be working against you rather than for you. That's my one question about this 7.7.4 build, and I mean it as a genuine question because everything else about it...

    135 inches at seven feet on spandex - does the weave show at that range?

    I sat about eight feet from a 120 for a year and what eventually pushed me back wasn't the picture, it was that I couldn't take in a whole frame without moving my head. So a 135 inch 16x9 at 6.5 to 7.3 feet depending on recline, with a 70 degree figure quoted for it, gets my attention straight...

    A screen hinged at the top on gas struts so the nook behind it stays usable

    Nice bit of problem solving in a build posted this week. The screen is mounted on hinges along its top edge over a nook, with gas struts going in on either side so it swings up and holds itself there. Struts are still in progress. It is the kind of fix that only shows up when someone has a room...

    Screen on hinges over a nook with gas struts - anyone lived with one long term?

    A v1 build got finished this week with something I rarely see done properly: the screen hangs on hinges at the top of a nook so it swings up out of the way, with gas struts either side taking the weight. The struts are still being sorted. Behind it sits a Denon X1800H, three Klipsch R-5502-W II...

    Going from stereo to 5.1.4 behind a scope screen - the centre is the hard part

    Saw someone asking about converting a two channel room to 5.1.4 with a scope screen and it is a question worth more than a shopping list, because the screen decides most of it before you buy a single speaker. With a 2.35 screen you have two options for the centre and neither is free...

    The last white rectangle in a projector room is usually the door

    Good thread over on the home theater side. Someone finished rebuilding their room, sat down, and realised the white French doors were now the brightest thing in it. Under a hundred dollars of black velvet and Dacron from Amazon, a staple gun, a brad nailer and some door trim from a hardware run...

    Does the projector work well during the day?
