Home Theater Projector Setup – Everything You Need To Know About Projector Installation
This is a guide for buying and installing a home theater projector. This video covers everything from planning, measuring, building, purchasing, and installing a home theater projector. Now that home theater projectors are more inexpensive than ever, it’s a great time to build your own home theater. Even 4K home theater projectors are affordable now, allowing most people to enjoy a big screen that looks better than most movie theater screens. This guide can be used as a way to determine the best home theater system for your space. Please be sure to post any questions in the comment section as I try to respond to as many questions as I can.

I have high ceiling in my basement (9'). I manage to have a diagonal of 221" against the wall with my epson hc1060. I can place the sofa at 12 1/2' or 16' from the wall. I don't use it that much neither that often. I have to admit it is pretty big; only maybe 3 people out of 15 think the screen is too big for the distance, but for me it is ok I don't know 🤷🏽♂️
I bought the Optoma UHD65. I have already replaced the bulb and every now and then when watching a movie, the bulb will shut off even though the projector is still powered. I bought an Optoma bulb, not a cheap knock off, is there a fix for this.
So, I connect all my devices into the back of my A/V receiver: where does the ethernet cable go into? the receiver or the android & ps5?
What's the best projector that has screen mirroring feature?
And my room is 10 x10 and I just bought a 100 inch screen
So how will it look or what can I do ?
How I mount a projector on the ceiling if is a DVD player projector ?
Awesome. Thank you for this video.
Great video
Thank you 😊
Him: your either buying one or already bought one.
Me: I want one but I’m broke so I watch you get to enjoy it.
Best projector set up video I've seen thanks a ton!
probably could use a higher res buddy
Damn fiber optic HDMI cables have come way down in price
Hi Chris, Im finally joining the projector club, projector is going to be around 16 ft away from the screen and receiver, do I need a HDMI balun if i want to run ps5 and apple tv on it as well or a 30ft HDMI cable isgood enough? thanks
This is not what I was looking for. I just want to know how to hook it up to my laptop. 😂
Very informative, concise and clear – thank you
Instant sub great video thank you
I'm looking at getting the 5050ub and on projector central it says the projector needs to hang down 3 feet from the ceiling, is that accurate or can I use the lens offset feature anf mount higher up?
How short should throw distance be to call it short throw?
My future apartment will be around 3.25 meters, is that short throw?
Your videos are so dang helpful
Loved it. Helpful. Concrete visuals are worth the time you put into them.

I noticed you don't have your speakers behind your screen. What are your thoughts on acoustically transparent screens?
