ben16v front room/cinema - first photos

hi people
been looking around here for ages and have just ventured into projectors and dedicated av recievers etc so thought id share my progress.
room was magnolia from when we moved in but i needed slightly darker to reduce the reflections cookie dough was decided as it had to be liveable and the gf had to approve.
anyway have a look and let me know what you think...
the photos arent the best as i have to use my phone
cheers
ben

Re: ben16v front room/cinema - first photos

right time for a quick update, ive bought a beamax 92" screen and just ordered a ceiling mount, not easy as the drop needs to be about 60cm,
the screen is excellent, much better than the blind. the black border really brings the picture out! and one next to the other i can see more detail in the close up images!

i will get some pics up when the mount arrives
cheers
ben
