In your room size I would go with a 120" screen assuming you will have a 1080P projector. If you have a standard height (8' to 9') room I would proabaly drop the top of the screen down about a foot to help reduce the reflections off of the ceiling if you plan on a 16:9 screen (more for a scope screen).

Harmony One's are great. I have no complaints so far. I picked mine up new for around $140 last spring. It is an IR only remote, but I have it coupled with a Hot Link Pro Remote Control Extender (also highly recommended) because I have all of my components hidden in an electronics double door closet. I believe it has the best design of any of the Logitech remotes with a nice balance of touchscreen and dedicated buttons.

No, this is not what you asked for. You need to look for preamp outputs. I believe it will say something like 8 channel preamp outputs (7 + sub). The 2310 only has the sub preout, while the avr-3310 and above have full preouts. This is why I recommended the model I did because it should be the lowest priced model with preouts that you can probably still find new. - John

If you want the option to use the AVR with an amplifier, I would look at a Denon AVR-2809 or its almost twin AVR-989. These are both '09 models but they can still probably be had new in the $6-7xx range (with some searching online) and would be better options than the two you were looking at. I just noticed a brand new AVR-989 on ebay at $749 with free shipping. If you use bing.com you can get an 8% rebate; therefore, net cost delivered would be around $689. (That is with 2 minutes of effort, I am sure an even better deal could be found with more effort).

Now that would be incredible! [Y] It would be even better if you could get Elite or some other company to produce it an econmical cost.....(I know in my dreams for now)

The Panny has a "zoom" feature to fill a cinemascope screen. Do not confuse this with a true anamorphic lens and scaler. They are in a completely different price range. The Panny will still be projecting in 16:9, but the remainder of the projected letterbox will be above and below the cinemascope screen.

Most movies are made in the wider formats unless they are a "made for TV" type ( movie. I went 16:9 in my home theater and for my viewing prefernces and theater layout I am very happy with my choice. Cinemascope is increasingly popular among some HT owners and is often favored by more of the "purists". I believe 16:9 screens significantly outsell 1.77:1 screen. One other thing to keep in mind is that most home theater projectors are native 16:9 format. You will not get any additional image quality with out going with very expensive anamorphic lenses/scalers. Even though the Blu ray disks have 1080P resolution, most people are only using 7-800 lines of resolution from movies due to scaling issues (cinemascope movies broadcast with a 16:9 projector).

Do you watch primarily movies off of DVD/BR or do you watch a mix of HDTV, Movies, Games, etc.? If you plan on using your theater for almost all movies off of DVD/BR then the 2.35:1 is probably the best. If you plan it as a multipurpose home theater then go with 16:9. One thing I noted last weekend is that when I ordered a PPV movie in 1080p DirecTV broadcasts last weekend (did not have the BR rental I wanted) it came through already cropped in 16:9. I am not sure if your cable provider does that, but it may also be a consideration.

Save your money if you are only going with the 2310 for the extra watts. 15W/ch will make little to no difference in sound with your KG4's. By the way those ratings are in 8 ohms. KG4's are 6 ohm speakers (I know many say 4 ohm) so the actually wattage output would be higher. First or all, if you think you will an amp at sometime in the future, then do not get the 1910 or 2310 as I believe they do not have pre-amp outs. An amp will bring out the best of the speakers and provide "headroom", but it is probably not a true "need" with KG4's. If you can find a 3rd or more KG4 (they are often found around $200/pr) I believe that would work well and be fairly inexpensive. You should have the room due to a projector setup.

I believe those are intended to be used if you want to drill or use an existing 3/8" hole. Therefore, it would not work with the existing hole on the sub 12. I know it is not 1/4-20 threads on the sub-12 although it is very close. My guess is that it would be either 1/4-28 (fine thread) or 6mm metric if you plan on using the existing holes for the spikes.

I really like KLF-20's with a C7, but I believe $800 is still a little high at this time even for a minty pair. I believe $5-600 will catch a lot of very good pairs with some below and above. If the location is good (KLF-20's are not an easy ship) and the speakers are minty as stated, then they might be worth a couple of hundred extra to you if that is what you have been looking for. If they rarely show up for sale in your part of the country then it may be a good idea to try to get them and I sincerely doubt that you would be anything but thrilled in their sound quality.

I believe October is typically transition month between old and new model projectors. The prices of last years top projectors have been dropping fast and may reach around $1500 fairly soon. From the current (last year) models I would look for an Epson 6500UB or Panasonic AE-3000. The replacements for these models has already been announced (8500UB and AE-4000). I would also check into an Epson 8100 which may possibly come out at $1499 MSRP later this month that is reportedly excellent. I believe today's projectors are very sharp with very limited motion blur; however, they will not be to the same extent of the latest LCDs and Plasmas. I know it is personnal preference, but for $1500 you will not be able to get a huge flatscreen but you could get a great projector with 3+ times the image area. I have LCD's, a Plasma, and a 1080P projector in my house. When it comes to choosing which to watch for a movie or a special HD sporting event my favorite is almost always to watch it on the projector. The novelty has still not worn off on being able to watch a 100+ inch screen at home (especially with the rest of my Klipsch theater!) The larger images of a projector will make defects more noticeable, but to me the advantages of the big screen far outweigh the minor disadvantages.

If you can find a KSP-C6 it a little smaller with very nice sound. I used one with KLF-20's and I thought it sounded very good. I upgraded to the C7 which is the recommended match for the KLF-20's but I would say it was only a minor improvement. It was not a night and day difference and the timbre match was close with the KSP-C6. The biggest difference was in the efficiency of the KLF-C7 versus the KSP-C6.

Duder - I think you are making a very fine choice in choosing a projector. My family (and all of my kids' friends) love ours. I believe you will be somewhat limited in appropriate screen size choices when you consider Khorns in a 13ft wide room with a projector screen. Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but I believe Khorns will extend out about 24 inches from each corner; therefore, you would have around 9 feet of wall space between the Khorns. You will not want to place to have the edges of your screen flush with the speakers; thus you will have a little over 8ft of useable space for your screen width(with borders). You will need to decide what aspect of screen you will want. If you watch almost all Blu-Ray/DVD's then I would probably go for a cinemascope screen (2.35:1) like Youthman. My family watches a mix of Blu-Rays and HD Sports and we went with a 16:9 format screen. I believe the max size 2:35:1 screen you could fit would be around 103" (depending on manufacturer). My guess is a 110" 16:9 screen would also fit nicely. If you did decide to go with narrower profile speakers, I believe you could go with an even larger screen (i.e. 120" 16:9). Please note that these suggestions are assuming that you will bve going with a 1080P projector. I would head to the smaller end of the range if you were looking at a 720P. Just for your reference, I am using a 120" 16:9 with seating at around 14' and 20' (of course the kids sit much closer, but that is overwhelming to me).

Are you looking at projectors or a flat screen (LCD/Plasma/LED)? Do you plan to use your Cornwalls (fairly wide) or a narrower profile speaker? Let us know and hopefully we can give you some opinions.
