Theater.avi

The Tindall clan's new home theater system. Features an Acer H5360 projector, Yamaha Dolby 7.1 surround receiver, Sony 3D blu-ray player, and the Optoma 3D-XL processor. The original fluorescent fixture in the middle of the room was replaced with front and rear recessed lighting, on separate circuits. Sectional has two recliners, as well. The room wasn't quite deep enough to get the size I wanted, so I mounted a 2x3 foot mirror on the back wall and bounced the projector off it.

@bh172009 I ended up buying an Optoma 3D box so I can do 3-D as well. With a DirecTV HR23 receiver, I get ESPN 3D. :-D

I should put up a better video to show the mirror on the back wall. If you watch closely, you can tell the projector faces rearward, and reflects off the mirror to increase the size of the image on my display wall.

@bh172009 All HDMI, I installed a box in the wall and one in the ceiling with keystone jacks, and ran a GOOD HDMI cable to connect the two, and used two more to go to the receiver and to the projector. You can get really good ones from monoprice for a decent price.

I recently bought the acer h5360 projector and i was wondering how you connected your receiver to the projector?
