Hi Folks,
I'd like to explore a projector and screen option for a new place. Presently using a 65" Sony A9G. Would like your expert guidance on how to proceed. A few details..
- Viewing space is about 16'Wx15'Lx9.5'H (it is not a separate room). 4 viewers max.
- Will use the 16' wall for the screen but there is a passage on one side meaning the wall is only 12'.
- I have a 2-channel setup which doubles up for HT duties. With about 2' for the floorstanders along the 12' wall leaves about 6-8' max for the screen.
- I'd like to do HT wiring just in case. Anything special or just depends on 5.1/7.1/9.1? Will I need to plan supports for the rear
speakers since there will false ceiling?
- Since the speakers will be about 3-4' from the front wall should the screen be on the wall or be about a foot or so behind the speakers. i.e 2' from the wall.
- I'm not sure if I'll prefer the TV for normal viewing and the projector only for movies. But that complicates how to have the TV and screen. I've seen power based screen roll-up/down. Any suggestions on how to plan this?
- I've seen a cool YouTube video of a screen that actually raises up instead of falling down. That would be great as I can just place it along the wall. Is this available here?
- Would prefer short throw projectors unless there are drawbacks.
- Would like one of those special projector screens. Suggestions?
- Budget approx 3L for projector+screen. Is this decent? Suggest something that's VFM and excellent. Also suggest good dealers.
- Any tips/suggestions on the wiring?
How would you suggest I proceed? Don't mind to hire a company if somone has first hand experience in Pune.
Thanks for reading. Be safe and healthy!
