Farm House Cinema

1080p Perfection...

The Projector is a Sony “Ruby” (VPL-VW100) firing onto an 92" (visible) wide 2.35:1 (full cinemascope) screen custom made from an acoustically transparent material by SMX. Total cost of the screen -- around $150. Additionally, there is a Panamorph UH380 anamorphic lens on a swing mount in front of the Ruby. This, in combination with some digital trickery, allows me to project 2.35:1 movies in their full-fledged glory.

There are newer and probably better projectors out there now but when I built this room (2006) this was the best to be had in this price point and it still throws a fantastic image.
