Topic:   Setup questions and clarification

After researching over the past year and half, plus with the completion of my theater room I am looking to run my choices by everyone and get some suggestions on things I am on the fence about. Pictures of the room will be attached so y'all can get a clear idea of my room. My current choices for the room are as follows: Epson Powerlite Home Cinema 1080 UB - ceiling mounted (wife recommended) Carada screen in cinema white - not sure how large I should go, maybe 110" - see pic for details Onkyo 605 receiver or Yamaha 463 or 563 Speakers are not chosen but I am planning on using bipoles in the rear because of an odd 45 degree wall, again see pic where right side bipole is listed. Home theater pc - I will try to build my first system Wii Xbox 360 My questions: Do you think the cinema white is the best choice of material in screen since I am going to have very little ambient light and will it match well with the PJ? Does anyone have recommendations on speakers that will match well with the two options of A/V receivers? The HTPC is going to be used as a DVR and I am thinking of using the new dual HD tuner card by DViCO. Is there anything I should be aware of when sending the signal to the PJ? I will sedn the signal from the PC to the receiver and then from the receiver to the PJ via HDMI. I have not decided on a video card for the htpc as of yet. Okay hit me with info,
 
Topic:   Upgrade to 1080p now, or wait for 3D projectors?

It's not so much the resolution that's got me interested in a new projector (although when viewing a 110" image from 14 feet, 1080p should be visibly sharper than 720p), it's the black levels. My Z5 has decent blacks, but in very dark scenes the blacks still appear bluish gray (and this projector has been calibrated by one of the best). The Epson 1080UB should be brighter and have superior blacks compared to my Z5.

3D in a projector is years away.Sooner or later you have to buy something.If you wait there will always be something better.I plan to buy the Epson Home Cinema 1080UB next week.I just put up my Da Lite 1.1 gain screen and I'm ready!

Topic:   classe -vs integra

i currently have a Classe ssp-30, i don't know enough to determine if i should buy an integra DTC - 9.8. i know classe is a fine piece of equipment. would going w/ the integra be a lateral move? the only benefit i'm sure i would realize is the HDMI 1.3 and the switching capability that would come with the latest piece of gear. the integra is getting some rave reviews. does anyone have an opinion on if i should or shouldn't?
