In theory you’re probably thinking right. All I know for sure is that my cans over the screen no longer have bulbs in them. I tried different PAR’s to go from flood to spot that did not shine directly on the screen without any luck. I also have a florescent fixture in the middle of the room between the screen and projector. I can’t see squat on the screen when it’s on.

I use a table lamp at the side of the room for just enough light to find my evening cocktail. I also have a pretty good sized window that usually has the black out blind up. When we sit down to watch a movie we’ll black everything out just for that little extra darkness and I’ll put the table lamp on its lowest setting.

………learn from my pain and mistakes while I’m humble enough to admit them.
