Edit: Thank you very much to YoYo for all his help in making this possible.....:beer:!!
 
Great job! Looks nice.

Only recommendation is... I'm not sure what you're using for a screen - but have you considered painting the wall with paint specifically made for projectors?
 
Get a better screen it will improve your image immensely. You can build your own for $15

QFT. Your screen looks terrible. The least you should do is at least make it taut(that's the damn spelling).
 
One note, bring those front L/R down!! It would be better if you wall hung them closer to the elevation that your center speaker is at.

Making the screen flatter will go a long way to improve things 🙂

Yeah, I agree...we just threw that up the other day, working on getting it taught. I had just been projecting onto the beige wall, which was fine. But I figure might as well put up a white surface. And to be honest, you really can't see the folds that much when projecting.

I'm gonna try and setup some kinda stand for the camera and add some more pics soon.

Can't wait for the bears game on Sunday!!!! =D

It's an apartment on campus. I would paint the wall if I could, but I don't think the leasing agency would appreciate that very much 😛
 
Home depot used to have low gloss wall paneling that was flat white. Highly appreciated by many projector buffs. I think it was hit an miss some places. Looks like quite the setup.
