I actually love how you don’t have any trim. It’s clean looking plus you have more screen. I’m thinking of replicating this. Great job. Looks awesome.

Tom ty for the compliments. i do have crown molding installed but it's painted the same color as the ceiling & walls so hard to notice. the room is in the basement and the ground has a moderate tilt (towards the drain in another room in case of flooding) so i never bothered with baseboard molding.

What a clean build. I can't believe that's a 140" screen though. Is that a 7' ceiling? I want to do a 150" 16:9 and that would be 130"x73" (134"x74" framed).

@aaromon43

yes, 7' ceiling. i've actually since changed the screen to 157" (16:9) with velvet masking for scope movies. it gives the pseudo imax feeling for 16:9 and keeps the screen as wide as the room allows for scope, i love it!

Screen looks really impressive...

Incredible Jonathan. Looks like you have enough room around the screen for an electronic masking system...as a possible future project. Enjoy your new screen.

kevin weithers already thinking about creating a masking system. not sure if i'm clever enough to create an electronic system but i am very intrigued by what i'm seeing create. gotta chase those better black levels!

is this white spandex stretched out over black one? or is it greyish spandex... i'm asking because u used to have diffrent materials at 110 screen, what's your conclusion as far as screen color/material goes.

white over black. absolutely love the spandex material. great value for your money. check out the avsforum diy screen section for other people's impressions for this setup. affordable and looks fantastic.

richard abney i'm inclined to agree with you. i've gotten so used to the size i don't want to make it any smaller. there are so many seating options it's overwhelming.. will definitely post a separate video about that. and thank you!

Love how clean the front wall looks. You have done a great job with your theater Jonathan. I remember when I upgraded from a 103" Elite Screen to a 150" AT Screen and like you said, not only is it completely immersive, but having the sound come directly behind the screen is incredible. Subscribed. ;) I really wish I would have documented my entire journey with video instead of just photos in the AVS Forum. Keep up the great work.

Youthman thank you. i have a couple of videos showing progress on the room that are further back in my channel but yeah most people aren't as interested watching 2x4's & wiring get installed haha. when i bought the projector is when i felt like i should video the room's changes over time. i still have plenty more i want to do too. i want to install 2 more atmos channels directly overhead (speaker drops already there), fix the side & rear surround height, put a felt border on the screen, create screen masking for cinemascope movies, upgrade the projector, upgrade the surrounds, better acoustical treatments, real seating (possibly a 2nd row)... it feels never-ending but it will eventually.

Great work, you should look into bass traps for the corners of the rooms will tighten up the bass response less rumble.

Holy crap that looks amazing!! Waiting on a demo with that amazing PJ on that 140 inch screen. 😉

Man...that is an excellent setup!!!!

Great job, and thanks for posting. I plan on doing the same screen but would really love it if you could show what the footage looks like in full movie mode and with just a little bit of light turned on. Thanks!

Where did you get the foam pieces for your treatments on the side walls and did you find that they were effective? Thanks and great theater! Inspirational.

Like I've commented on your other videos, you have a badass room! I have question though, why is your projector at 19' away? Is it just your preference to have it at he back of the room? I have a 132" screen and my Epson 3500 is about 13' away from the screen and i run it on Eco mode and natural. I didn't think you would have to go so far back for 140" screen.

@aaromon43

5 жыл бұрын

Alberto G i used to have the projector 13' away when the screen was smaller (110"). that throw distance was not enough for 140" so i needed to find a new home for the projector. i chose the back wall because it's made of masonry block and the projector won't vibrate/bounce from the bass like it would have had i mounted it to the ceiling closer to the screen. it was previously mounted to the main support beam for the house and it still shook a bit (not it doesn't shake at all). yes this means that i have to run the projector brighter to make up for the throw distance but i'm really happy with it. another benefit is i don't hear it running as it was directly overhead before. also - the day will come when your UHP lamp starts to flicker from running it in ECO mode (they all do it eventually). the only "fix" is either a new lamp, or run in full lamp power. mine already had that issue after a couple hundred hours and i've been running high lamp ever since.

@@aaromon43 - Yeah that makes sense. Plus you can never have too much bass : ) I been lucky and haven't had the flickering yet. Im on my second lamp at a little over 2k hours i think. My original lamp i changed it out at like 6600 hours of use and about 2 years. It was still going but i changed it before it went out. You have a badass theater dude👍
