One suggestion friend is that (in my case) the highs sound much better out of the center channel if you are able to get it closer to ear level (mid screen). If the screen isn't audio transparent then you've done the best you can but you may try putting the speaker where it sounds the best and it will probably take about 10 minutes for you to realize that you're blocking a portion of the screen :))). My SLA center is about 3 ft higher than Ideal so it really does a great job for everyone that is standing (party room) while the mains cover the seated audience.

Looks mighty well finished, good job!
Hi MissleCrisis Thanks for the suggestions and the compliment. I'll try raising the centre to ear level and see how it sounds. I'm pretty pleased with it now but the screen is from Costco and they do have a transparent screen so :D . I'll post my observation on moving the speaker higher.

Cheers

How about making your own 110" screen? DIY! Something like this thread http://www.avsforum.com/t/1436181/110-d ... -at-screen

You guys are bad :twisted: . Just when I told my wife I was done in the room you come up with more ideas :) .
I raised the centre to ear level on a couple of bar stools and really didn't notice any difference but the stand that I built for is angled and it does aim it up to the listening area ,so that may help.
I do like the idea of a AT screen project for the future perhaps. :hyper: .

Cheers
