If you are thinking about going larger on the screen, definitely do so if you can-- I think you'll be happier in the long run. |

This is my favorite HT on these forums...Well, my favorite anywhere for that matter.
Well played, sir! ![]() EDIT: Brian, what camera do you use for your screen shots. I cannot keep my 6.0 mega-pixel Kodak camera still enough to take a great photo. Have you adjusted your aperture settings. I guess I'm asking "How do you take such great photos, mang?" Last edited by 111111; 12-16-2008 at 08:38 PM. Reason: Adittional Comment |

Brain,
I said it before, and I'll say it again. Bravo! Bowers & Wilkens are my absolute favorite speaker manufacturer, and I think your home theater room is the best I've seen on the site. Would you please add photos of your whole room to this thread? You have other pictures in the gallery, but they deserve to all be displayed in this thread. Keep up the great work! |

B-man is right-- the screen is wall mounted flush to the drywall. One consideration I have is building a false wall about 2 feet in front of the current drywall, aperture mount the screen in the false wall, place the HTM2D behind the screen, move everything a couple of feet up, and move the seating back a little. That might be a bit "cleaner" although the HTM2D is reasonably aesthetically pleasing. It might also improve the sound performance a little, with the voices coming right from the screen. I've been considering this more and more recently, so we'll see... |
