On several fronts, this theater room (living space doing double duty) needs some corrections. First, the white ceiling and light floor with the white projection screen is a total wash out of the image! (gray, flat image, lacking dynamics and punch ..black level is poo). If you're going to have light colored walls all around the room, plus what I just mentioned above, this system NEEDS A LIGHT REJECTION SCREEN! (i.e Black Diamond, Polar/Darkstar, or BARE MINIMUM -Firehawk!) Otherwise, you need dark walls, surroundings, etc.
All that and speakers placed/aimed wrong -away from seating locations- no room acoustics treatment considerations (can hide lots behind room dividers with screen material, etc), couch against wall for nice boomy sound there, yada yada., plus were looking at speakers and gear stuck in the room plus curtains. (not as bad as just bar wall setup, but needs adjustments!)
A white screen and white ceiling?!!! ...YYYEEEIIIIKES!
