Well, my "home theater" has completed the transition to phase C.
Phase C is an upgrade from a Panasonic AE100+goo painted wall to a Sanyo Z2 + Carada screen.
The Carada is a perfect fit and I bought it to improve the flexibility of my setup. I bought 2 Carada surfaces: the .8 Grey and the 1.4 White.
This will allow more flexibility in my living room with a lot of glass. During the winter I'll use the grey... in the summer I will swap to the 1.4 white to fight ambient light problems. The combination of Z2 with it's variable iris and Carada with multiple surfaces is an excellent combination for environments like mine with ambient light issues.
My previous AE100 was unviewable during the summer months until 9pm..
There have been several posts over the last few weeks about the effects of ambient light on the image quality. Here are some sample pictures to illustrate the issue (shown with the .8 grey screen).
