| Re: Sconces needed Go to your nearest Home Depot they sometimes have clearance specials on all sorts of lighting fixtures. You can also check out Ikea if you have one in your area thats where I got my Sconces from.

| Re: Sconces needed If you want something really inexpensive, I found these ceramic sconces at Ace Hardware for $20-22 each. This is an old pic, but you get the idea. I painted them. ![]() | ||||

| Re: Sconces needed Got mine @ Lowes as well, couldn't beat the price & they look nice. One thing to consider...replace your switch with a remote control dimer. You can program your remote to dim the lighting as the projector Q's up the movie. Way cool! Last edited by Tonto; 04-24-08 at 07:38 PM.. | ||||

| Re: Sconces needed Here's a pic of mine on one side of the wall. They were pretty cheap and I will eventually upgrade them to something a little more theater like. $36 for 4 sconces I can't complain especially when trying to keep my theater build's budget down (built from scratch). One thing I learned was that regular incandescent bulbs tend to hum when dimmed (I have a Lutron GrafikEye). Using rough service bulbs or some ceiling fan bulbs fixes that. The filament and its posts are thicker and more resistant to vibration. ![]() Last edited by MatrixDweller; 10-11-08 at 07:05 PM.. | ||||

| Re: Sconces needed If you check out Home Depot or Lowes they run anywhere from $20 up to $80 or more depending on how fancy they are. The ones that I got from Wall Mart were marked down more than half price. The do make some HT specific sconces that look like movie reels or popcorn containers, etc. You pay a bit more for them and typically have to order them off the internet. There are literally thousands of styles to choose from in sconces. It all boils down to personal preference. The following link shows quite a few examples. http://www.eco-lights.com/wall-light...ll-sconces.php | ||||

| Re: Sconces needed Here are my latest ones... they are about $30-35 each I believe. Not a great bargain, but less than a LOT of the ones I have seen. I went to www.thefind.com and put in "sconces" (example - then enter your price range to narrow the search more) and man did I ever get a bus load of offers... I think there were thousands and several of the same ones with varying prices depending on the store. | ||||
