Whats up with the larger-than-life images on some of the new displays? I mean they look like the people are pasted onto a background. Surreal!!! Anybody else experience this at home? Is it something that you're just supposed to get used to after watching plasmas for a long time?

Posted this on another thread but I don't expect a response as the thread seems to be inactive. All apologies for posting multiple times. Would love some advice on a BW Ultra application for my stage setup. Essentially it's a custom 3D mapping sculpture that I designed and built myself, with...

All, As I was wrapping up my list of components for my new home theater (to be built as part of a 1900 sq ft basement finish), a fellow HT enthusiast asked why I was getting the Panasonic 65" ST60 over a projector. My honest answer is,"I don't know. I never really considered a projection...

I jumped the gun and started buying equipment for my dedicated basement theater room. The technical info about projectors and screens makes my head spin. Hopefully by giving my room size and my projector and screen info someone can tell me if they are compatible and make any recommendations...

After the end of this years college football season I made a decison that I needed to change my current DIY projection screen to something that allows more ambient lighting without the lose of color and contrast. I reviewed several builds and decided on the Black Widow PFG route. It didn't...
