A DVD screening room is like having your own private movie theater where what is playing is always what you want to see. Building a home theater DVD screening room requires a space where the audio and video equipment won't be disturbed, and where you are free to set up the seats just the way you like them. This will take a few weekends to accomplish, but the results will be worth the time and make you the envy of your friends, who will want to come over and watch too.
Instructions
1. Mount the projection screen to the wall of the DVD screening room. Place the projector stand 15 feet back from the wall. Place the front projector on the projector stand facing the screen.
2. Put the component table against the wall underneath the front projection screen. Put the DVD player and the audio amplifier on the component table.
3. Place speaker stands on either side of the projection screen. Put a main speaker on each of the speaker stands. Put the center speaker on the floor between the two main speakers. Put the subwoofer to the side of one of the two main speakers.
4. Put two home theater chairs behind the projector table. Put a speaker stand on each side of the home theater chairs. Put a surround speaker on each of the two speaker stands that are on each side of the home theater chairs.
5. Run speaker wires from the two main speakers to the corresponding input on the amplifier. Run a speaker wire from the center speaker to the corresponding input on the amplifier. Run an audio cable from the subwoofer to the corresponding input on the amplifier. Attach an HDMI video cable from the DVD player's output to the amplifier's HDMI input.
6. Run speaker wires from the two surround speakers to the corresponding inputs on the amplifier. Run a long HDMI video cable from the HDMI output of the amplifier to the HDMI input of the front projector.
7. Hang the movie posters on the wall with double-sided tape. Replace light bulbs in the room with 40-watt frosted bulbs if you wish to keep dim lights on during the movie.
8. Turn on the amplifier and turn on the subwoofer.
9. Turn on the DVD player, insert a DVD and enjoy your new screening room.
