September 2015 update
Recently upgraded to an Atmos set-up. Atmos really works, it's night and day difference compared to my previous 5.1 set up. I installed six 8-inch yamaha in-ceiling speakers for front height, rear height, and also for my L/R surround. The Denon 7200wa is a 9 channel amp with 11.2 processing, so I used my old yamaha rxv1400 receiver to add 2 channels to the Denon receiver.
The 1080p Benq w1070 still works well after 2 years on a 150" screen. The video comes out super bright and sharp.

Very nice!
Sent you a PM inquiring about the sticker.
TY :)
-
Matzter, good luck and congrats on your new HT set up. I'm looking forward to see it posted here. :)
-
Thanks bro :)! I will post it here as soon as I get the sticker.
Thanks so much for your help in getting the logos :D.

Nice set-up. I have also an infocus 4805, bought it from avdi. Where did you bought yours? :)
-
Nice set-up. I have also an infocus 4805, bought it from avdi. Where did you bought yours? :)
Thanks. Got it also from AVDI, in Shangri-la. I'm using component video connection; do you think it's worth upgrading to a DVI-D capable DVD? :)
-
I'm also thinking of that upgrade but I think the best thing to do is to let AVDI try it first. They have all the equiptment needed and I'm sure they won't let us down on our request. If you happened to view the dvi first kindly post it here and in case if I'll be the first one then I'll post it here also. Maganda na nagtutulungan para ma-improve natin pareho home theater set-up natin
:) :)
Ano nga pala gamit mo na ceiling bracket para sa 4805 kasi alam ko may dumating na sa avdi na bracket daw?
-

Hi Atty Jomonds :).
I am waiting for the new model DVI/HDMI PJs (panasonic AE900 or Sanyo Z4) to come out. BUT, I believe I will still use component cables. DVI/HDMI cables are very very expensive, much more for the long 8-10m variants for projectors. I saw 10m HDMI cables in HongKong priced at over P65k (last year)! DVI is cheaper, maybe P20k.
Unless you will put your projector in front of you in a table with the DVD player, then that would be no problem, the free 2m cables that come with the DVI capable DVD players would be good enough. In my case, another solution would be to put the projector in a shelf behind you and the DVD player beside it. But its just a bit awkward when you press the remote, you have to point backwards ;D.
There are (720p, 1080i) DVD players that can upconvert through component cables. So just look for these players and your 4805 is rocking!
Suggestion lang... :)
-
Ano nga pala gamit mo na ceiling bracket para sa 4805 kasi alam ko may dumating na sa avdi na bracket daw?
I did not ceiling mount it, as I think it will be more convenient to keep it table-mounted as I always adjust the zoom lens depending on the aspect ratio of the movie. It also allows me to cover the lens and switch off the PJ when not in use (the 4805's fan keeps running if you've turned it off thru the remote and not thru the PJ's switch. I'll let you know in case I get the chance to compare DVI with component cables on the 4805 :)
Hi Atty Jomonds :).

Wow, Matzter, I didn't realize those DVI cables could be that expensive. In which case, I think the option of having the DVD side by side the PJ will be an acceptable option. Thanks for your suggestions! :)

You are most welcome. Correction pala, the prices I saw was this year April.

Sir Jomonds,
Just wanted to ask how you maintain your DIY screen. Does it get dusty? Do you vacuum it, or wash it?
Thanks in advance sir :)
-
Hindi naman dumihin, so I don't bother with it. Besides, I think that screen cost me only a little over P2k to make (more or less the cost of 1 dvd boxset). It's a temporary set-up, but I think sobrang sulit na talaga. I'm sure more expensive screens can give better picture quality, but the marginal improvement will probably be not worth the extra expense in the meantime.
For your HT, you may also want to try a DIY set-up first. You can have the frame made by those carpenters selling furniture from recycled palettes (paleta). I bought ordinary black cloth (the one used for formal pants) for the frame, and blackout cloth from Shell Canvass for the screen...and stapled-gun it like crazy at the back of the frame. :) :)
Someone posted this somewhere in pinoydvd, and I found it useful:

wow....ang ganda ng mga gears nyo SIR....saludo ako sa iyo!!!! :D
-
;D ;D thanks to alexis, elvenears and sanmig!! it's nice to see comments on this thread again. ;D ;D
Room size is 3.5m x 5.5m. No special acoustical treatments except for maybe the carpet. Used a tempered glass wall para overlooking yung HT room sa living room. Maybe this picture can give you a better idea...

thanks again for looking!
-
bossing...anong side ng blackout cloth ang ginamit nyo? yung rubber o yung tela?
-
hi sillyputty. :) :) the blackout cloth that I bought from Shell Canvass was only single layer, and made of the rubbery material. But one side is rough while the other side is smooth. The rough side is the one facing me/the room. Pero palagay ko it does not matter which side you use.
-
congrats sir jomonds, you've got a truly classic HT set-up, nothing fancy or anything spectacular, just plain & simple elegance all over 8)......AND you've got an all B&W speakers set-up :o :o :o
-
great set-up sir jomonds.... ;D ;D
-
Thanks sir Munskie!! :) :)
Sir Classicman, your comments make this hobby even more rewarding. I appreciate it. Thanks!! :) :)
-
:o :o :o ang bangis sir! congrats! ;D

Update ko lang. Just got a new Panasonic amp. Not much discussion at pinoydvd about this amp, but looks like full digital amps are beginning to make waves elsewhere. Lots of power!! I wouldn't say it's better than the Yamaha 1400 but there's a lot to like about this xr57. Sound quality is clear and crisp, hindi muddled kahit malakas. It easily drives the small Bose speakers.
When I get the time, I'll check how it can drive the B&W's. I heard that a lot of people have given up higher-end gears in exchange for this amp. Got it thru Amazon.
The Oppo is also a great dvd player. Better PQ than the Momitsu I'm using for the HT. I'm using it now for the plasma, but will probably swap it later for use with the Infocus 4805.
Thanks for looking.
:)

Congrats bro on your new gears :o ;) Ganda ng set-up mo , dalawa pa ;) Bro yung oppo ba can upconvert to 720p using components? I have read 2 conflicting reviews kasi eh ??? thanks :D
-
Another awesome setup in the making, congrats sir. The Panasonic amp looks great. ;)

Thanks Ricky. Mukhang hindi kayang mag-upconvert thru component. "DVI" button kasi yung ginagamit to cycle thru the resolutions as per the User's Manual. Anyway I still checked and hindi na nga nag-function yung option to cycle thru the different display resolutions once I connected it via component cables. The signal appearing on the Infocus is 480i. But once I put back the DVI cables, the Infocus will reflect a 720p, and then pwede na ulit mag cycle thru the different display resolutions.
Another awesome setup in the making, congrats sir. The Panasonic amp looks great. ;)
Thanks jojitv. A nice feature of the amp is that zero "hiss" kahit gaano kataas yung volume.
-
Thanks bro ;) buti na lang hindi ako nakabili ;D although may dvi connection naman yung pj ko pero mahirap makahanap ng mahaba na cable :) Congrats again bro ;)
-

Hi! After 8 years, I finally decided to replace my 480p Infocus projector with an 1080p Benq w1070. This projector is just amazing. I am now able to upgrade from a 90" screen to a 150" screen!! The video comes out super bright and sharp, and gave a nice refreshing update to my noise room. The whole family loves it!

Good choice. The Marantz (with external amp) is a much better gear for your range topping set up. Nice!
Congrats, sir. Ganda ng set up mo.
Thanks po Lancito!

nice set-up sir!!!
i'm itching on ATMOS too but only for low-end X1200W =)
