Will the plywood leave a lot of tiny tiny holes on the surface after soaking up the paint? I was thinking of using plywood and paint but afraid that the surface will be very uneven to produce a good and smooth surface.

Good progress that you have got there.

mys_terious, like rx330 said, better buy cloth and let the frame maker to do it for you.

Budget pj mount is abt RM130 only.

Yeah, drilling needs skill and ideal location. Water leaks will pose a big headache.

If no termites issue in the housing area, then timber flooring would look nice. But, I still prefers carpet as timber is still hard surface.

Taikor, no Panny. It is on order basis. Cant keep too much stock. But, HD65 is here. PM me to check out HD65. Then, we discuss abt it wink.gif

if got the moolah, i think go for the panny
lcd tech, but got the dunno simi smoothening, kenot see chicken wire and got 2 hdmi in  thumbup.gif


The AX-200 black level is superior. It has smooth screen technology to counter the chicken wire effect than often plagues LCD pj. A very good LCD projector with good reviews.

What to do?  We don't have much choice over here when it comes to HT projector.  I was once introduced an out-dated unit from local store.  Luckily didn't rush in. sweat.gif

After reading through posts in here, HD65 seems to be best bang for bucks...anybody using the HD803?

Yes, there is one here using HD-803. It is jwjy from Sarawak. smile.gif

Btw, i never say SP4805 is HD projector. Please read properly.

X10 is a 1080P full HD projector. You got this point right half only.

Btw when and where you saw X9 projector??? It is at your home???
Bro, I am answering rx300's question abt SP4805 wink.gif

My home? Nope. If you want, I can get X-9 or even X-10 for you smile.gif

Correction : X-9 is new entertainment pj.

Here's the new 1080p X-10 :

finally managed to see HD65 in action...an av shop in Sban2
proper a/v room with all the bells n whistles. as dark as u like. proper pull down screen. but sourced using a normal dvd player playing pirates so obviously not the best material.

verdict...personally i wasnt too impressed with the PQ. dark scenes was quite poor. fighting scene from Fearless (when Jet Li fought in the rain at the restaurant against the other master) was not clear at all, perhaps it was the pirate dvd but PQ is not there at all.

i would say the experience of a 100" screen did blow me away but it simply didnt cut it for me...in terms of PQ

will try again with a hd dvd player or blu-ray n also to try panny ax200

p/s: got an offer of optoma EP727 for RM3k ? any comments on this model ? good price ?
*

I knew which shop you went. Maison. Mr Wong served you?

I bet it's the DVD problem. Aint as poor as you mentioned. Else, HD65 wont be a hot budget HD pj on avsforum. smile.gif

For AX-200, you can got to Musical Image in Sg Besi for demo.

ycs, didnt know taht you are so good in DIY. I am a lousy fella in this. Thought of making my own for both acoustic panel and bass trap. But, worried that the end result is a mess.

lohlm56, I am interested to know abt it too. Care to share with us all here?

that's very informative. Tks a lot, pierreye. I think need to get my carpenter to quote this to me. But, need to translate this info to him in cantonese and show him the photos here. Hope he gets the idea of it.
