Hi all,
Hope you had a good Xmas and a prosperous new year
I am after some advice, I am having my garage converted to a cinema/gaming room and am debating what to do regarding tv/projector. I have a 50" LG plasma sitting waiting to be put in but i always wanted a projector to maximise the cinema/gaming experience. The debate is i want to be able to use the option chosen for not only gaming/cinema but also for general tv watching etc but am concerned that if i have a projector it is only good when in the dark and the picture isnt brilliant if i dont close the curtains. Was considering having just the 50" plasma and not bothering with the projector or is it worth installing the cabling and mount for a projector and saving up for a better quality one as my budget wont stretch for more than about £500 for the projector.
Also i tend to watch xvid's how would these look on a projector screen compared to a plasma.
What would the gaming images look like in daylight on the projector as well ?
Another issue is sound i have an old ish surround system with floor standers etc how do the wireless speakers stack up ?
Any advice would be appreciated.
