As long as you’re building a brand new room, in a brand new house -- I would suggest that you create a room that can control ambient light. This will clear the way for a Front Project, and you will be on your way to big screen ecstasy. If you really want the “theater” experience – the FP is a cheap way to get it. ½ the price and 3X the size, what’s not to like? If you decide to go with a FP there are some things to consider with regards to the paint. (that is, if you plan to project right against the wall)

Wow, I’m envious… to be able to route/fish cable without having to worry about drywall!! Keep the pics coming, be fun to watch this thing go up.
