At the moment it's a pulldown, and I'm not happy with it, as it has a few wrinkles thus, is not entirely flat. I'm going to cut the material out and try building a frame for with plywood backing. If I screw that up, it's another $500 for a decent perm wall screen. Screen material is matte white, thought about a screen material with a 1.3 or so gain, but everyone I've talked to says anything with a greater gain than matte white(1.1) creates major hotspotting with CRTs. But I'm fine with the material, the image is nice and bright.

Yes I love Klipsch speakers, some say they are too bright sounding and create fatigue, but to me it feels like being at a concert. Ever been within 15 rows of Metallica blasting away for 2 hours? Let me tell ya, it's pretty damn fatiging. However I don't get fatigued with them, they just sound amazing, I much prefer that 'in your face' feeling only horns can give. I had to get the 7s in the Reference series. How else could I sleep at night but to know that there is nothing better out there?
