RE: Audio

I should have clarified that I have been using a 3-in 2-out HDMI Octava switch to select between the PS3-80 and HD-DVR sources. The output of the switch now goes to a 40" Sony LCD monitor; it would instead go to the to-be-acquired projector. I think the only change with a projector would be that the Proceed PAV/PDSD and amps would need to be invoked for all audio, whereas the audio capability of the monitor can be used for casual viewing.

The LCD monitor is on a cart that can be wheeled out of the way, and I had thought of using that as an alternate display. But I've since given up on that idea. Most of the TV programs we watch have 5.1 audio that we enjoy through the Proceed system-- the pre/pro and amps are turned on from standby with a single button on the remote. And for music, the already excellent stereo imaging of the KEF 104/2s is deeper without the LCD sitting between them.

I am interested in the material you used in building screens. It has been suggested elsewhere that it is preferable to buy the screen last, after you have lived with the projector a bit.
