Hey everyone, I currently have a living room that is 8' high, 16' deep and 12' wide. The room has to be considered ambient, cream colored walls, tan drapes. If you look at my theater pictures you can see the wood paneling behind my TV.
I'm thinking that a gray screen of 106-120" would be the best plan for my space, and an EPSON 8350, because of the good price, and budgetary constraints. Here are some of the screens I'm looking at : http://www.bigscreencenter.com/Produ...02070&CartID=1 120 inch electric mustang screen http://cgi.ebay.com/120-Elitech-Elec.../200582185487? pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2eb3a1420f#ht_2149w t_905 http://www.costco.com/Common/error.a...e/Product.aspx The brands are draper, elitech, mustang. Since I have my TV electric screen is ideal. I guess I was wondering if you would know of any good value screens, and could honestly tell me if I should just wait until I get the ideal setup. I don't want to spend all of the money and effort to be disappointed, but I was thinking this is how I want to welcome LOTR extended editions. Thank You.

I've only ever had a white screen for my 8350 and have been happy with it in my living room setting. Front wall was originally white and has been repainted black - noticed an improvement but still was good with the original white wall. Projector really needs controlled lighting to get the good image quality it's capable of - if you watch at night and have the lights turned off it will be good enough to get a really good image on cinema mode.
If you are good with DIY projects you could make you own screen to fit your needs. You could make a fixed frame that could be hung from the ceiling in front of the TV and stored on the ceiling or side wall...and paint it with S.I.L.V.E.R paint mixture to get the best contrast and image quality possible compared to gray or white. Whatever you choose to do screen wise, 110" would probably be a good size for that room. These are the quality images (other than it looks better in actuality...sharper with better contrast) I was getting from my 8350 and Elite Screen 92" white screen in cinema mode at night when the wall was white (I do have double thick black curtains in the large bay window on the LH wall though): ![]() ![]() ![]() |
