Well today i finished putting up 5.1 speakers (logitech z5500) and i attached the screen to wall....

Sadly the screen has quite alot of curl on the sides so was quite

Hoping if i leave screen down for few days may straighten


On a better note i blacked out one window with stick on black out material and curtains and this does the job

Pictures to follow soon. Tried taking some with my phone but as the room is so dark now i need camera with flash

Things left to do...

* Projector shelf
* speaker cables
* black carpet
* get sofa in there
* Black out other small window
* Monitor projector screen and hope it get better.
* get a Bluray storage unit

Well speakers and screen are now up. Also completed shelf for projector.


My camera sucks but you get the idea. Ran out of speaker wire that i bought so ordered a 20m roll.

Will be testing Projector tomorrow, fingers crossed shelf is level and screen starts to straighten out.

The circle marks on the pic are from the camera :s

Updated images***Screen shown above is goooooone.

Have not updated my thread in ages

* Got rid of cheap screen and bought a beamax fixed screen 92", best choice i ever made. No more waves or lines or imperfections in screen. Beautiful flat image now

When the lights are off you can only see the screen pretty much so very happy with the paint.

The only bad thing is this has made me buy lots more blurays so my wallet crys

Not sure what next upgrade will be. Im happy with my Epson tw5500. Surround sound system will be next change although i have no complaint about my current set up.

Looks good man. I rent so I couldn't paint my room black, so what I did was cover all of the walls and ceiling in overlapped black bed sheets.

I noticed in your gallery that you have all of the Song of Ice and Fire books. Do you think we'll ever get The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring?

Thanks. I have read some preview chapters of winds of winter on GRRM website. Really cant wait.

I was lucky that i only got into them when GOT started on TV. Would have been a pain to wait so many years between the rest of the books.
