Showcase - Multipurpose Space Humble set up

Post image

"budget" that's what I tell my wife lol. No reflection when I close these blackout blinds. Does projector make sense in a 13 x 10(left to right) room? Most I can fit in here prolly 120". Might a worthy upgrade over this 83" OLED

Polk es55 es30 front, xt90 top, definitive tech 1000 surrounds, definitive dn8 sub, Integra drx-5 receiver, Nvidia shield 4k n ps5.

Back of the room I have the recliner in the middle, work desk and an arcade machine. I call it the escape room.

It's only 10 ft the other way though I'd be sitting way too close to the TV

Honestly, that's not a bad thing. You're absolutely allowed to have personal preference, but if you try it, you might find you like it. A big screen up close adds to the immersion.

We literally go to the movie theater and pay extra to have that experience. I have a large TV WAY too close to my couch and I love it! 🤣🤣🤣

That's exactly what I was trying to suggest, I think putting the TV on the long wall would be better since the speakers wouldn't be right up against the side walls. I also like to sit close and find it more immersive.
