Hi guys,
A few pics on a "man cave" i set up in the spare room. Mainly used for gaming and movies.
I have not spent a huge deal on top end items, i kitted out the whole room for under 1K.
Trying to measure up throw distances and things and decided to clear out the room and set out to plan my 1k budget.
After research, the Optoma Projector seemed the best "budget" PJ that works well for short throw.
Ikea sofa seemed the best option at the time (This is being replaced with a leather sofa at the end of Jan, to be quite honest i'd rather sit on the floor than keep this !
Back of the room. Basic sofa from Ikea. In the middle is a black stand where the PJ is.
A little mood lighting for when there's just music playing and im chilling with food/drink.
Under the main screen area we have a black Ikea storage table to match the one where the PJ is. There is a PS2 and Xbox 360 here with all the games/movies.
I use a Sony 3D Bluray player which also decodes the video/sound and outputs video to the PJ.
120" image used at the moment (can't get any bigger) It's fantastic for gaming/movies
Nothing much will be changing. I'd mount the PJ on the ceiling when i get my own house as this is a rented flat and don't plan on being here long term so rather not start drilling holes! Will custom build a screen to in the future.
Living room set up quite basic and simple (how i like things) Just an old Sammy 40" screen, SKY and a bluray player. Next to it is where i am sitting now, my PC ect is all in here. This closes when PC not in use and it hides everything away
we will see. Going to start researching a bit now. I did go and have a quick look but didn't see anything of a decent size for less than 3k.
. its 11TB so far.. 4 x 2TB and a 3TB in the Optical bay.
