Everybody needs a good 2 channel stereo. I had a dedicated media room at one of my old houses that was an unfinished room when we bought the house. I had an OK 5.1 setup. I don’t miss it… my stereo though, I won’t give that up. I’m more into music I guess than movie watching, the obligatory sound bars with most of my TVs are fine enough for me.
I agree with you on the sound. I have a dedicated home theatre room that have dual layers of sheet rock mounted on rubber mounted brackets buffer the sound
I do chill out and listen form Dark side of the moon CD every once in a while. Even bought a higher end CD player.
Yes, a Stewart StudioTek 130, 2.35:1 with a 103" diagonal. I wanted the 1.3 gain to help with 3D's inherent dimness, but sadly 3D seems to be fading as a home medium.
Before kids I had a 2 channel setup. No time to sit around listening to just music anymore. i Wish I could. Once they r gone my theatre will get 2 channel added to it. When we designed it I made sure I could add 2 speakers up front just for 2 channel and not mess up the acoustics of the room. No idea where theye are going to do since I added wides to my front stage now. Prob won’t ever happen who am I kidding. Lol
I’m the same but double Studded walls, 1 inch air gap with clips and decoupled ceiling and 2 layer 5/8 inch with green glue. Complete room inside a room. My buddy’s shop built my door. 1 inch thick jams with a custom 3 inch door and full seals all Around including drop down for bottom of the door. That door is a work of art. He matched my interior doors on the outside to match the house doors but inside its Paneled to hold my acoustic panels for it. Dedicated a/c which is fully isolated also wup in the joists so no sound escapes through the vents to the house.I agree with you on the sound.

The built-in lens of the Sony VPL-VW915ES. It can memorize several aspect ratios and switch between them via motorized zoom. No anamorphic lens needed.
I got one kid in college another about to go to high school. I rarely get to crank up the stereo, because the wife hates it. I mostly am relegated to headphones and probably all ways will be, lol! My collection of headphones keeps on growing though… I think I’m up to 15 or something like that… and my favorites happen to be the cheapest pair… go figure…
Ok u use the “zoom” method. U happy with it? The jvc units do the zoom thing also. Nice.
The acoustic company I used for my acoustic plan helped with this. I knew I needed mass. So I opted to get recommendations from him and have my buddy built it since his shop was building out the whole rooms panels and coffee for acoustic panels. His guys never did this but knocked it out. I’m all 3/4 inch material. 1 inch banded material. 1 inch jams. Green glue between each layer of material. The zero seals were the key. Especially the built in drop down bottom seal.
My first room I have had various JVC units setup along with various panamorph lens. whatever my buddy's shop has for demo. but right now I'm finishing my room inside a room so I'm with no setup. We are ready for finish work. I'm waiting on my buddy's shop for winter to hit so we can work on my room. I'm sitting on my acoustic plans for him to wrap my room with wainscoting for bottom half of room and then coffers for ceiling. I'll use coffer openings and upper halves of walls for my wrapped panels and then I can load the room back up. I have thought about not using a lens and stretching. Not sure yet. I'm not even sure what scope ratio I'm going to use. I have the front baffle wall designed so I can choose whatever aspect I want. We have done a bunch of zoom setups. Just have to make sure that front wall is dark enough for the black bar bleed. I was suppose to be done last winter but I bought a bass boat. sooooo. . . that's how that goes.
This is my thing leaving plasma. All sets look bad compared to plasma. I'm going several steps down in picture quality although I do get some of that back going up to 4k.
when I got my plans back form the guy I used I was really surprised at how exact everything was. I lost another 4 inches on my back wall. 2 inch on side walls.I brought panels and have several around the walls. 2 of my walls are against concrete and underground
I haven’t used mine in 6 months, last time I used it was watching Ted lasso
oled doesn’t. Lol
My Spectre is finally acting up after 5 years of being outsideI have 2. 55” sceptre TV I got an Walmart for $250 and I honestly don’t see how anything could look much better.
I have had them for a few years, have one outside under my pool area and one inside and live them.
I use a Roku but really only watch college football
Acts like the remote is stuck and menu keeps scrolling.
After letting it play for an hour it fixed its self. It’s been very humid so maybe it just needed a little heat.My Spectre is finally acting up after 5 years of being outside
But I was able to get to get it working enough to watch the UGA Tenn game later today.
5 Years isn't bad for a $250 indoor TV after being out in the hot and humidity..
Ham radio operators will be glad to see those plazmas retired....severe radio interference.
