Last month I had brought up the question, which is a better solution for a larger screen home theater, with a minimum size screen of 85" or larger? I had mentioned that technically,
a 85", high quality (not all TVs are created equal) TV is better,
BUT, now with the outstanding picture quality available today,
a screen that is 100''+++, makes the overall experience much more lifelike, and really, in my opinion, no contest. The pictures posted consist of a Sony entry level 4K projector and a 135" screen, valued at $6199.00 To give you some idea of what a screen that size would measure..it is about 120" (10') wide and 66" tall.
Going back about 10 years ago, I did a screen this size where the bottom of the screen was only about 15" off the floor. The mother who was about 5'4" (64") and her 3 small children walked in front of the screen. Their silhouettes fit perfectly on the screen as they crossed from left to right. Kinda funny!
The pictures you are seeing were taken about 4-6' from the screen with a 3 year old iPhone. The source is a Direct TV receiver and the animated movie is using a $100.00
Sony Blu-ray player. Neither of these are 4K sources.
My point is this...and I know seeing it on such a small scale is
not the same as in person, but try and look at the detail especially on the Direct TV feed. That is a 135" screen with a
Sony 4K projector standing 4' from screen, the picture is amazing, even at that size.
Again as I have mentioned, having life sized figures that have
a tremendous amount of clarity and detail, makes the overall watching experience much more entertaining, even just watching the news.
Next time I will discuss the importance of the "sound".Is it as
critical as the picture, or possibly more important then the picture????

The question often comes up when a client has a choice between a large screen TV, say an 85" or a projector with a 110" screen or bigger, which is better? Technically, a high quality 85" TV, if technical measurements are taken, would be better. BUT, projectors are very close in performance. Being able to see in great detail fine lines on peoples faces, plus the most intricate details on any object on a screen that is 5' tall, can truly be amazing. The more your peripheral vision comes into play, the more realistic and involved you become. That is only possible on a very large screen...assuming you have a large enough room. And now, with the detail you get from a high quality projector, the room does have to be that large. I have installed a 117" screen in a room that was only 16' deep. Some people think this is too big for the room, BUT, I will tell you, once installed, no one has ever said the screen was too big. The entertainment factor is incredible.

I know it is hard to tell by the picture exactly what size screen you are looking at, but this is a 120" screen with a Sony 4K projector. The picture was taken about 20' from the screen.
Hopefully, you can get an idea of just how much detail there is.

This is a picture of an installation in Manhattan. Again, working with a Designer to create something that blends into the decor. This is only one of the many rooms in the apartment
This client had a proposal from a NYC AV dealer, I did the same installation using Sony TVs instead of Samsung, but other then that, it was exactly the same. My cost was half.. PLUS, the wiring instructions from the other
dealer was completely wrong.
Over my many years of installations, this scenario has not been uncommon, not only in Manhattan but in Connecticut as well.

Some other types of installations I do are integrating the controls that are built into cardio machines. This enables them to locate the cable boxes in a remote location.
This is an installation in Manhattan. I am a "preferred vendor" for the Gym Source in NYC.
I also do AV installations in NYC. The main cover photo is an apartment in NYC.

What you are looking at (but can't see) is a 65" TV hidden behind sliding doors over the fireplace. Also, are 4 invisible in ceiling speakers.
