Hello all- Is there any favorite site or forum that you would recommend for getting a basic start on designing, implementing a home theater. Was just given the run of the basement from my wife- no doubt to get me out of the family room. Very large basement with alot of open area, but I believe ideally a room that is currently a "pool" room that can be taken over. The room is approx 12-13' wide and 18+ feet deep. Ceiling is just under 9'. Already have Rotel RSP-985, RMB-1095, NHT 2.4 VT's and VS's, biamped front with NHT SA-3, soon to have Denon 2900. Am considering a plasma screen but have been very interested in all the ruckus about some very reasonably priced, strong performing front projectors like the Infocus X1, and some of the Epson and Sharp machines. As durability seems to be the plasma Achilles heel, might it be a better investment in the long run to use a projector (am in a low light to no light setting as desired)?
Where can I go to get recommendations on acoustic damping, ideal room dimensions, standing wave issues, and even a primer on front projectors as I have not even a modicum of knowledge on them?
Would also be GROSSLY remiss if I did not mention I also have an assortment of kick-ass interconnects Lex made up for me. Am still waiting to hook them up but the build quality is obviously excellent and he was terrific to deal with. Very fair and works within what you can afford. Two thumbs up!
Thanks in advance for any help.
