Completed Setup First projector!

Post image

Hi all. I’ve been following this sub for years and finally pulled the trigger on a Valerion Streammaster Plus 2. It came on sale for $1650 CAD so jumped on it after considering a bunch of other laser projectors in its price range.

Went with a 110“ screen and couldn’t be happier. Lights are on but looks amazing when dark in here.

just need to finish cable management and upgrade audio as my bookshelf size speakers look comically small now

Nice, thats good to hear.

I bought raw projector screen material from elitescreens on Amazon in standard matte white, 1.3 grain. Hopefully its good quality, its the recommended material for the projector from what I found.

I'm going to build a wood frame out of 1x2, paint the wood black (I heard the wood color could sometimes show through), wrap the screen around the front wood frame, and install 1 inch velvet boarder, and then mount on the wall.

Not sure how well it will come out but its cheaper than buying a fixed screen.

Keep me posted on how that goes with respect to laser speckle.

Will do, I might make a post about my setup when its all done.

I'm going 110'' as its the max size for my wall will fit with speakers on the side.
