OK, I've a had a couple of upgrades since I last posted here. The upgrades are as follows:

• Replaced Model 950 with Model 990
• Added rear surrounds and Parasound HCA-750 to pwer them.
• Replaced Hitachi 57S500 RPTV with Panny PT-AE900U projector and 92" DIY screen. (I made the projector mount too.)
• Tweaked HSU VTF3-MKII sub by installing a dimmer on the lit logo on the front. This way I can put it where it sounds the best without being blinded by the distracting light.
• Painted the room. (Light gray walls were killing my black level.)

I think that about does it. Here's a link to a site I threw up real quick today. The screen shots are pretty dark (stupid digital camera..) so a lot of the detail is lost in black. It doesn't look that way in person.... Also, check out my DIY proj. mount. I can't take credit for the design, but I did make some modifications to better route the cables. I also made my own screen. I may end up buying a real one, but this one seems to be working quite well. By making my own mount and screen I saved myself about 900 clams. Enjoy.
