I got two WDTV Live's in the bedrooms which are networked to the hub in the living room, so I can watch everything that's connected to it. I've been downgrading my cable since I barely watch TV now with this setup. I think by the end of the year i'm calling my cable company and telling them to come get their shyt. :takedat:

Anyone got any recommendations on a new sound system? I'm not trying to buy everything piece by piece, so probably a decent HTIB.

Pics are from my OG Evo so the quality isn't that hot, my digital cam needed to be charged at the time.

What's the projector size go up to? How often will you have to swap bulbs on that thing?

It is advertised at 4,000 hours, so several years. I've read of people only getting 2,000 hours but they called Epson and they gave them a free bulb. I hear Epson's customer service is amazing.

The screen is 120 inches. I've made the picture as big as the wall, but not as clear. Anything under 120 in looked good. This projector even looks good with lights on.

I've had a projector before, but I ran through 2 bulbs and I was like, I'm a just get a TV.

The pic quality on those things are great though. I had an old 1 that I had to hook my Xbox up via PC input and it still looked dope.

I was debating for a long time what I wanted to do. I moved into a house where the garage was made into another room, I dubbed it the Mancave. I originally had a Samsung 46 inch A650 in there, but wanted a big TV. I couldn't justify spending the money I wanted on it and waited.

Finally said fukk it, and around black Friday last year the projector was selling for around $900. I am a review maniac when it comes to products and everything I read seemed good. I am extremely pleased with it thus far.

I have the WDTV Live plus.. I wanna hook it up with moviesheets but can't figure out how to do it. I probably should've got the hub, but I like the portability of the one I got.

I'll post pictures of my shyt later.

The hub actually pulls the movie information and movie backdrops off the web automatically, so there's no learning curve to get that shyt going. I have the plus in one room and that new WiFi version in another. The WiFi version has the same user interface as the hub and loads up the movie sheets that are on the hub in the living room. shyt is pretty slick :takedat:
