Some Impressive HT Pics
But if I ever do decide to go more theater-looking, then this is one of the sites I’ll definitely inspect for inspiration. Lots of the shown home theaters don’t look multipurpose enough. But others like this one look more to my taste (except for that honkin big projector hanging from the ceiling).
Good inspiration, either way.

I completely agree with you that home theater room should be multipurpose. A bit darkish but no rows of seats. My take is to make it a living room with possibility to control light rather than a separate area where you go to watch movies.
By the way,Henning - congrats on the “grand opening” of HTBlog.
Cheers,
Mike

Thanks Mike! You had me confused there for a minute, because a friend of mine, also named Mike, just finished his basement with a home theater area with control light, just like you mentioned.
It’s only once I saw your link that I figured out you were a different Mike. I’ve been enjoying your site, keep up the good work!

In that second photo you mention, the projector certainly looks like a honkin’ big one, but you don’t know where the camera was positioned. It may have been right behind the projector, which would make the projector look quite a bit bigger than it might if you were actually standing in the room. In any case, that one does look like a very nice setup.

The projector is really big. When I am not mistaking this is a Barco and it is huge, espacially for a room that is also used for other things than just home theatre. Like my own living room. I am using the Hitachi PJ-TX200, it’s really quite and just small. But it is not a CRT (Barco) but a LCD projector.
