Planning out New HT

[2channel lover]

Yes, that is it -- but they pick and process fast

I'm never bought anything from them, but that's good service still. A lot of these places that have it in stock will typically get you shipped out same day if you order by 2 or earlier.

WOW. I have never purchased anything from Accessories4Less before but when I replied with my "Thank you" message above that was the same time I placed the order for the speakers and the receiver. I literally just got an email stating the order has been shipped. Unheard of! Amazing!

That's a really nice space...send a few pics when you're all moved in and set up.

I would recommend the BenQ HT2050 over the 5+ year old W1070. The W1070 is nice, but is out of production. Pair that with a Silver Ticket screen and call it done for about $1,000 for the projector and screen.

You can get the projector FIRST and see what size screen you actually will be happiest with.

$750 for the projector

$230 for the screen.

Out the door for under $1,000.

Makes sense. I'll look into that one then.

Well, it is late (been busy) but here is the almost finished product. I appreciate everyone's recommendations. The Cambridge Audio speakers sound amazing. The Sub is out of this world!!! Movies and gaming is exactly what I wanted. I have been playing Assassin's Creed Origins on it and absolutely love the gaming experience a thousand times more now! The fronts are on the corner shelves from Home depot. The Center (top) and the surround rears sit perfectly on the same type of shelves.

i had to build the platform for the rear sofa 13" tall to allow the people in the back to have full view even when reclined. The view is perfect.

The receiver is the perfect central to everything since I use Zone 2 outside in the pool/back porch area on two Klipsch outdoor speakers. I absolutely love being able to control everything about the receiver with my phone.

Thank you all for the help! I have a few more little tweaks to do in the room to make it exactly where I want it but the hard part is done.

Cambridge Audio does make good stuff -- your set-up looks nice -- continue to enjoy the adventure.
