    Merry Christmas to ME!!!

Just received my Hitachi PJ-TX100 from Santa Fed Ex!  Found a factory refub on Ebay for a great price.  I have my Gemmy deluxe inflatible screen sitting in the basement.


Now all I need is my pool to be built and some warm weather and I'm set!

Just upgraded to 1080p via a sanyo 700; looking forward to warm weather.

Sharp Notevision PG-B10S
1200 lumens on full mode, 1080 lumens on eco mode.  Not that much difference in brightness, and the bulb life doubles to 4000.
350:1 contrast
Built in speakers are good enough for playing the wii, but I wouldn't use them for movies.

Current screen is either a walmart shower curtain or the white vinyl picture window shade.  I have a roll of white vinyl I'm going to make a screen from for the summer.

I use a Dell 1100MP. My screen is perminant. Made from three 4' by 8' sheets of poly lite. I've had this setup for three years in nasty Wisconsin winters. Seems to be holding up well.

Optoma 770 EP, 3,000 lumens,
movie screen 12x7' square channel aluminum (can be taken apart) with trampoline stretch fabric white screen, giving me an effective 166" diagonal screen 16x9.
4 Polk Atrium 45's, two left, two right for two levels of viewing (but I think audio is getting off topic )

Acer PH530, purchased as factory refurb from Tiger Direct for $300.  1000 lumens, 2500 contrast, 720p, HDMI input.  Wonderful all around.  ONly regret is not buying 2 at the time!  Replacement bulbs for $220.

12x7 painters tarp clamped to rectangular 2x4 frame attached to backyard fence.  Used 5 times last season, excellent results.  quick setup and takedown.  Moving up to 16x9 Carls place BOC next weekend.  Woohoo.

I use my old Infocus X1 and some trapeze placed across garage door opening as a screen in rear projection mode. 


I have an old Yamaha RXV2090 pro logic receiver and 8 speakers.   Although its pro-logic, it can drive 2 main, 2 center, 2 front 'effect' and 2 rear channels.   The plugs are there so I used 'em all.    I drag the 8 speakers out to the driveway when I show a movie.
