My rental system

[KyotoKid]

Perhaps a bit misleading - I rent where I live so being able to set up the room I use to watch films the way I would like is not possible - such as routing wires though the wall. At least I was able to paint the viewing wall black. Also put some black material on the ceiling about four feet out from the viewing wall, sure helps contrast. There are so many very well thought out and constructed home theaters here, I sometimes wish I could do more myself, but at least I get enjoyment out of it, and that is what we really strive for in the end. This is my third projector and rather than lose my shirt as it were every time I upgrade, I think it is time to sit back and see where technology will take us in the next 2 or 3 years before I take the plunge again. Rack is a home made throw together. Here are a few photos.

Can't say much for the decor at the moment! Earlier picture prior to changing things a bit.



Wires, wires everywhere. I really need to tidy it up.
