Update: The projector arrived today (Friday, 12-5)! So did the cables I ordered. My first impression, is that it is huge. The photo below gives the impression that it is a small box. We’ll it is more like two shoe boxes sitting side-by-side. I set it up around 6:30 for some initial testing, and the girls came down and watched “The Grinch” starring Jim Carrey, which was on TV tonight. There is still more tweaking to do, plus I have to mount it to the ceiling, finish trim in the room, install wires, etc. So today wasn’t the official opening of the Meyerplex, but it is getting close. Did I mention, that the picture was sweeeet?!
Original Post: All of my renovations in our basement has lead to this one goal, an HD home theater with drop down screen, 1080p projector, and 7.1 surround sound system (sure, I was making a space for the girls to play too, but really, give them a decent sized cardboard box, and they are entertained for hours). I was not ready to buy the projector quite yet, but the one I wanted went on sale this weekend for a Black Friday special, and I, I mean we, couldn’t pass it up. Now I need to put that blu-ray player back on my Christmas wish list, and then decide on the title for the first movie to premiere at the Meyerplex. If you have a suggestion on what it should be, let us know in the comments!
