Thanks.

Why don't you spend your budget on a Home Theater projector and watch a true big screen, say 120" instead of 65"? Sony has a few excellent models in the $3K to $5K range that will really give you what you are looking for.

For 3-5 I would get the JVC HD350.

True, there are several excellent models in that price range from other companies - since OP preferred Sony, I was trying to use that to get him to consider front projection.

Honestly, there's no talking to this guy. We've been down this road many times before. I'm surprised I even responded in this thread. He doesn't even have the facts correct about the size. It measures 64.5" diagonally. There's way better 65" TV's out there. I'm actually surprised seeing EE advertising it under 4K being an authorized dealer. Definite no-no w/Sony.

After little research I think I going to get Sony VPL-HW15 around $3 grand
I just put the unit down my basement and watch blu-ray or good movies in HBO or something like that in this projector. I want to order 120”screen size to goes with it too..
Only thing is kind of down for me..if is connected to ceiling is hard connect it to surround sound and HD boxes and so on, have to find a deferent way or set up on the table if I could ,if is not interrupt the shooting pic on screen that way ..
Anyway Thanks for the idea u gave me, and defiantly I go with that, Getting huge size 120” instead the 65” screen
I just never had experience with projector unit before, this would me my first. Just hope works out for me

Thanks 8bit

You would pass the hdmi thru a receiver first then to the ceiling mounted FPTV... (you can place on a shelf or table also as long as nothing is - or will be in the way...

It's not hard to connect it to surround sound with a ceiling mount. All devices will run into your receiver which can be placed anywhere, then run your HDMI cable out to the projector.

Before buying, might I suggest doing a little research on projectors. While I'm sure you will be happy with the Sony 15, there are better projectors with more features out there for less money. The Panasonic 4000, is one of the highest rated projectors and it will save you money. It will work especially well in a basement setup.
