Hey Grant,

Great idea. That was an option I started to consider once I began looking a little further into things. In fact, it would be an absolutely ideal setup for getting the best/ biggest picture while allowing the Maggies to breathe freely. I could even get an acoustical "sound screen" and pull it down in front of the Magnepans for movie watching.

It was a difficult idea to throw down, because it would be sooo sweet, but in reality that just wouldn't be practical for me now. The Maggies sit a ways from the back wall (of course) into the room, and there is a ceiling fan right where I'd want to mount the screen. I'd have to either take that down and install some other lighting on that side, or move it. I'd want to mount the projector on the ceiling also, and that means running wiring in surface conduit which I'm not too keen on. If it were a "dedicated" audio/ H.T. room, I'd be all over it. Unfortunately, I should keep it a little living-roomy.
