This is another apparent aplication that is the destruction of the video excellence may companies try to achieve. They really did their customer a hugh miss service by not providing an adequate projector. Another case of people not knowing video perfomance.  So sad

You are contradicting yourself here, from one sentence to the next. In addition, if you don’t want the “snotty” comments then don’t publish the theatre in a magazine! Sheesh! Are all HT installers just as thin skinned as the ones here?

Very impressive regardless of what people think. But hey, guys, for 100k, could you at least clean up the wiring behind the equipment stand? Speaking of, why did you go with a stand like that and not a rack installation?

Uh…yes the size of the screen is pushing it.
But short of spending about 30k more, if the owner digs it, whats it to you?
100k is a pretty steep budget for a home media room.
I’m so tired of reading snotty comments by folks who feel free to judge someones set up as “lacking”.  Compared to what? Your dream room?  It’s all well and fine to attack someones set up, but at least this guy put his money where his mouth is and BUILT A DEDICATED ROOM.
It looks like a fun room to watch a fun movie.
Would I use it to color grade a film? No.
Would I use it to watch Star Wars? You bet.
FYI: My screen is about the same size (154’) and it totally rocks!  Joe Kane may not approve, but he ain’t payin’ the bills now is he ;-)

I currently own a JVC hd1 projector and love it but using a 160 ” screen is really pushing it. I have to agree that the equipment doesn’t match the level of the room. This seems to be the typical I don’t know anything about hometheater so just give me a room that has a big picture and makes noise. I blame it on the installer.
