Re: dedicated building for home theater


Well I've got a 65" Toshiba Widescreen, although it's not the latest model, and a Sanyo Z4 front projector. Personally the Z4 is my favorite and it has a gorgeous picture. The Z4 cost me almost a $1000 less than the Toshiba. Both are nice, but the Z4 with the 97" diagonal screen is awesome... and it's on a painted sheetrock wall.

The Z5 is only running about $1600 right now... not sure if that's with a free bulb or not, but it seems they were offering the extra bulb, which is about $350-400 when you need one. You would be hard pressed to find a big screen with any size for that price.

The thing with front projectors is you can get a bigger picture. At about 10-12 feet, a 97" diagonal screen is perfect for us. Not too big and not too small. I don't think I could stand any bigger.
