Thanks all for the tips and advice. The first cable I swapped out, the one between PS3 and the receiver seems to have been the culprit. I started a movie and it did black out once at the very beginning, but the entire rest of the movie was flawless. I thought it was going to be the long 40' I...

Amen brother! At first this only happened once in a while and I chalked it up to a fluke, but now it probably happens about 20 times during the course of a single movie and is not acceptable to tolerate. It literally ruins every movie or show I watch.

Thank you all very much for the suggestions! I will be swapping out HDMI cables one at a time today when I get home. If I experience the same problem then I will move on to the receiver. Many, many thanks!

Well, about 6 weeks ago I got my HT set up and it has been amazing. I have never had a setup even close to this before and all I can say it was worth every penny. Quick gear check: Denon 3312CI Receiver Epson Pro Cinema 6010 PJ Visual Apex 120" electric tab-tension screen EMP Tek 7.1...

That is exactly what I would like to do, but the walls are full of the spray in expanding foam insulation. It may be tough, but the more I think about it, I would like to try to force them down, it would be much cleaner.

Yes, sorry about the blurry pic, I will be getting some better ones today. As for the hanging speaker wires, I did buy some cable cover tracks from Lowe's that are paintable. I will be running those this evening and painting this weekend. I did hear it from a few others to pull the speakers...

Well, it had been months of planning, reading and trying to learn as much as I can about everything audio & video. I finally got everything setup and running this past weekend and watched a few movies and the best word I can think of to describe for how it felt....holy chit, don't think I will...

Thanks, there were 2 banana plugs touch one another, fixed that! Thanks

I just received in a new XPA-5 Amp and am currently setting up my system. Have following setup: (Keep in mind this is all new and using for first time) Denon 3312Ci XPA-5 Panamax M5300-PM Epson 6010 PJ I am waiting for my new speakers to arrive, but until then I wanted to at least get...

Sadly, when I had new carpet installed a week or so ago, I did not think about that and the whole upstairs has the same carpet, it is a darkish tan, but still not what I would call a dark color. Too late to change that, but I have had the lights off and it isn't bad at all actually.

The screen is: VApex 120" Tensioned Electric Projector Screen Review — Reviews and News from Audioholics It is the 120" version.

I have 100% light control in my media room. I can get it so dark you can't even see the whites of their eyes. :eek: My walls are a deep maroon color, pretty dark actually, but the ceiling is a flat white, I may end up changing that.

So, I can shelf mount it from 23 feet on to a 120" screen and still have plenty of brightness for 3D etc? This is going to be my first projector, so I have no idea what to expect or compare it to. I don't even know what to expect as far as picture quality, compared to a normal lcd or...

I will be ceiling mounting this unit. My first row of seating is at 13ft from the screen, second row about 18ft, so I guess 16ft would be in the middle of those and not hanging over anyone's head. :D

I am going to install my new Epson 6010 projector and vapex 120" electric screen and am trying to find something on how to do it right. How do I determine where I want the PJ, how far back etc?

Well, to be honest the speakers is what held me up the longest. For the price points, everything else was an easy decision after a good bit of reading and scouring these boards. As far as the projector, it was between the Epson and and the new Panasonic AE7000. The fact that I am an Epson...

FirstReflection, I would just like to personally thank you. You really helped get me off the fence without telling me what I should get. You spilled out the pros and cons of each setup I considered and it really did help me drill down to what I felt would be the best bang for the buck. My total...

Pics will most definitely be forthcoming. So far, all I have is the projector, receiver, Panamax and PS3, I should have everything else by mid next week.

Made up my mind Enough sitting on the fence for me, I have been back and forth for weeks on my HT system and finally pulled the trigger today, I am excited to say the least. My last HT: Mitsubishi 65" DLP - $1300 Onkyo HTIB - $600 Couch & Love Seat with recliners Just bought: Epson...

I just ordered this screen last week and should receive it by Wednesday. Can't wait to try it out with my new Epson 6010.
