New Home Theatre

[CstSnow]

So my wife and I just moved into a new apartment, and I finally have a room I can turn into a home theatre, So far Ive gotten an HD projector, a pretty nice set of wireless surround sound speakers, and I'm going to put all of my framed movie posters in there. I havent really set up much in there yet, so I will post some more pictures when its finished. I honestly dont see how im going to leave the house now though, the picture literally takes up a whole wall and is HD, Ive already watched 5 movies in the one day I've had it set up.

Right now im just running it through an old P.A. haha, but I just ordered this online..

Its a sony bravia surround sound system with wireless speakers.

Projector was around 700$
Speakers 250$
So all of it was under a grand, which is cheaper than a good 37 in hdtv, and this is hd still and takes up a whole freaking wall.

For sure. Very nice. I spent way too much on my current set-up. Hahah. I need a wife, although, I doubt she'd appreciate it.

[CstSnow]

Mine appreciates it so far, but once she realizes that I actually may never leave the room she might have a different opinion.

Hahhaah.

Wow, great setup there. If I had one of those, I'd just live in there, haha. You definitely need movie theater style seating.

I wasnt going too, but I just found these but in black for a really good price so I might haha.

I have the exact same system in my bedroom, it is worth what you pay for it, I have been extremely happy with it. In fact it sounds better than the system I spent around 600 dollars on in my den, but that's going to change soon

[CstSnow]

Wow that looks really nice. I hope to have a set up like that someday when I own a home.

the InFocus In78

are you happy with it thus far?

[CstSnow]

are you happy with it thus far?
ecstatic with it so far, I read a bunch of reviews and it was pretty much the best in that price range easily. Great color, easy to set up, great picture, great contrast , the lumens rating was good.

do you remember offhand the lumens rating?

[CstSnow]

do you remember offhand the lumens rating?

um 1000 lumens I believe
3000:1 contrast
1280x720 native resolution, compatible up to 1080 i and p
3000 hour lamp life, and Ive read that it easily goes over that.

that's sweet man, you may have changed my mind from the one I was going to get (here (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-VPL-AW10-BRAVIA%C2%AE-high-definition-projector/dp/B000T0WXGA/ref=pd_bbs_sr_4?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1215121913&sr=8-4))

That ones pretty good too, it came down to the one I got , the one you posted, and a Mitsubishi one with similar specs, but I got an insane deal on mine because It was open box, lamp life was still at 0 hrs though so its still new. For the usual pricing, it seems like that Sony one would be cheaper normally priced though.
