That massive screen is the way to set up a home theater. Thanks for posting this video as I was one that requested a video to show the image from your projector.
Love the room, great job!
wow that is so beautiful. You have convinced me to get a projector and build my own screen. Thank you for sharing this.
Hooly crap that looks even better than I expected!! Literally feels like I'm IN the movie.

@@aaromon43 hi where can i get spandex from also will it be better than pro grey prowhite for contrast black levels and colour.
I need to build a 150" 16:9 screen and unsure of how much spandex material is required Please share specifics of how much spandex is required which will help a lot of us build own screens and also where do we get spandex more than 60" width?
Holly Molly. Impressive. Forget the garage build dude. We demand more theater videos.
So many people say they have a 140 inch screen and just does not match up to this. This a true big screen done right.

i've actually gone and increased it further, it's 157" now :)
The subs are so big I thought they were a second row of seats! Haha! Awesome set up! Ive watched vids where people will say that screen is too big. Thanks for the video because I think its perfect and now all those negative comments I read on other vids about seating too close and screen is too big just went in the "hater bin". My room is about the same size and I feel good about my future build thanks to you!
what a amazing picture im wanting to build a 150 inch 16x9 screen..im looking on amazon but not sure what spandax metiral to use...i have a epson projector with 2800 lumins and will be siting about 10 feet away....and advice will be greatly appricated....
Very nice man! I cant believe you don't even have a 4k Projector. That image is really nice. I especially likes when you showed the 2.35.1 image I couldn't even see the black bars. Good luck with all your projects. Hope to see more update videos in the future.

Bobby Maull thanks! the white over black spandex yields a very low gain which really helps with black levels. it's kind of nuts how good the image looks for how cheap the projector is.
What can I say but BEAUTIFUL!!! Enjoy
Looks fantastic. Well done
Thinking about getting Epson 1060 but now Epson 2150 looking good
Dammn that is awesomely big as hell. Perfect.
Outstanding video, keep up the good work those sub woofers though, I though I was crazy thanks for making me look sain i can show her your video and be like it can always get crazier. The screen looks amazing love the size you went with 140 yea.

thank you, I am using 230" 2.4 screen outside. Inside I would also like to utilize 140". you have manygood subwoofers, ihave none.
I was so inspired by this I made my own 150 inch 16:9 screen using spandex and wooden frame I live in an apartment and did the best I could with a removable black felt masking . I wish I could share photos and video

@@aaromon43 that’s awesome ! Yeah the smallest cheapest thing like masking makes the biggest difference When I get a home I’m definitely going to get some subs and orient like yours . Good luck sir !! 👍👍🤗
So do you have a full list of materials used to make this screen?
Hi. Just subscribed. Bit late but new to the home theater game. Am I correct in understanding that you put white spandex over the black spandex ?
Ok this looks really cool awesome job love it 😊👍
Man O man, Spandex is such a good screen fabric. I love the floor to ceiling look when it comes to cinemas. I just published a video you might like where I just made my 180" 16:9 screen frame. I'd love to use spandex on it but I really want to look though the fabric when there is no movie playing so you can see the speakers... as bit of a feature. But I might change my mind yet and go with spandex lol. Anyway bud good video and awesome cinema :)
Very nice 👍🏻 is there a reason to run ur subs in the back of the room? Of course being as big as they are but Do u think u could benefit by putting subs behind the faux wall in front as well as the speakers? Trying to figure out a system build for mine and Just curious on if it’s better for subs to be in front as well vs the back of the room.

the rear of the room is the only place for the subs (i only have about 1 foot of depth behind the screen). bass is omni-directional, additionally having the subs close to the seating provides the most tactile energy (nearfield vs farfield). i'd say most people run their subs flanking their l/r speakers because it's aesthetically pleasing and has little or nothing to do with best room placement.
Wow!! the screen was super giant, looks like the proportion of the IMAX, was very good.

check out some of the new videos, i've since installed black velvet 8' out from the screen on the floor, and all of the walls & ceiling. has helped tremendously.
Hey I just upgraded to a native 4k projector. The jvc nx5. I want to do a bigger screen. Do you think this material would look good with a 4k projector? I don’t want to harm the resolution of the projector. I think I will go about 130” or so

Did you I’ve any experience with a non AT screen before the spandex? I just ordered a sample to see what it would look like. And I ordered a sample of elite screens cinewhite material. I want my picture to look the best it can since I splurged and got this jvc nx5 man it looks awesome! Great content thanks for the videos
Hey Jonathan, very nice. Question for you. I have the same subs you had previously - dual FV15HP 's. Did Enrico advise you to run them with all 4 ports open or is it better to plug 2 of the ports for more extension? Thanks.
@aaromon43
6 жыл бұрын
kevin weithers you can do either. Both ports open yields louder bass from Port tune upwards which I used until I tried 1 port open. It drops Port tune to 12hz or so, and gives more tactile feeling. Only negative is too much port air causing port chuffing. Make sure if you change port config to change amp settings too. Reference the amp settings diagram that came with the subs.

Thanks Jonathan. Which option did you end up preferring?
@aaromon43
6 жыл бұрын
kevin weithers 1 port, no question. while stuff above 20hz is great, there's something special about really low tactile bass. i actually just found out that my current subs have a 2nd port tune at ~9hz (down from 12.5) that i can achieve if i plug one of the three vents on each. waiting on rythmik to send me some port plugs so i can try that LOL
You should do some videos on the garage build.

Any idea how spandex works with ultra short throw projectors? I'd love to have an AT screen setup, but have little time to invest in a project that may not work out. :(

Russell Borrego it should be fine. the only drawback to spandex is that with white over black the gain of the screen is really dark so you need more lumens to compensate.

Jonathan Lindhome thanks. Wasnt sure if the non-shiney spandex was truly non-shiney or not. The Optoma I have yet to unbox is 3500 lumens... Figuring between that, and the close proximity to the screen? Hopefully lower gain won't matter as much.
@aaromon43

Russell Borrego nearly any other material you might try and use for a screen will have a much higher gain than spandex. what i would do is order a small amount from spandexworld (maybe a yard?) and temporarily secure it where your screen will go and see how it looks.

Jonathan Lindhome thanks, I literally just got home from Joanne's Fabrics. Subscribed to you for around a month now and my excitement over your videos got the best of me. Going to do some test panels to get an idea of what I want to order from spandex world. I know not all spandex is created equal, but it's a start for now. Your videos have been inspirational, thank you!

Enjoyed watching your videos and following your comments online..! But this video was poor by your usual high standards. Showing the screen from the back with AVS showing looked good, like 7mins onwards in the video. Shame the demo material playing wasn’t the same.
