The Screening Room AV

The part about teamwork is absolutely right. It’s exactly why there’s a whole team of people working together with us when we build a custom home theater for our clients.

These events are a lot of work, but they’re also really fun and extremely informative. It’s about time to think about our next event. We were thinking about doing a comparison with some higher-end machines, like maybe JVC vs Sony vs Epson vs Barco. What would you all like to see?

MARCH 2026 JVC B-STOCK BONANZA!

GREAT LOW B-STOCK PRICING ON THREE OF JVC'S MOST POPULAR PROJECTORS - THE NZ500, NP5, AND NZ8! Prices start at $3500!

We just grabbed a FRESH BATCH of JVC’s inventory of B-stock current- and previous-generation projector models, and are making them available at outstanding prices!

INVENTORY IS EXTREMELY LIMITED, so if you want one, contact us right away!

These B-Stock units have been fully reconditioned and carry a minimum one-year warranty from JVC:

DLA-NZ500 (AKA the RS1200):
Normal price $6999, grab a B-Stock for $4999 EFT INCLUDING a 5-year warranty (one year from JVC, four years from Mack). Guaranteed to have less than 100 hours on the laser! High brightness (2000 lumens), high contrast (40,000:1), and the latest and greatest JVC HDR tone-mapping. Note that this is $1000 below the sale price on this projector, and with a longer total warranty!

DLA-NP5 (aka the RS1100):
Original price $6999, grab a B-Stock for $3499 INCLUDING a 5-year warranty (one year from JVC, four years from Mack). Get all the renowned JVC contrast and HDR tone-mapping performance for well under $5000! Unit has a brand new bulb so zero hours total on this unit! (Yes, this is a bulb based unit but keep in mind - bulbs have certain advantages over laser-based projectors: greater color gamut coverage plus the ability to replace the lamp and restore ALL the projector's initial brightness for a fraction of the cost of a new laser light engine). This projector performed extremely well in our last projector shootout - way above its price class!

DLA-NZ8 (aka the RS3100):
Normal price $15999, grab a B-stock for $7999 EFT INCLUDING shipping and a 5-year warranty! (one year from JVC, four years from Mack). We have ONE unit with 1650 hours on the laser. High brightness (2500 lumens), high contrast (80,000:1) and 3D / P3 color gamut capable with their high contrast light engine.

The Screening Room AV lives and breathes home theater, but it isn't all we do!

This client purchased a new home and the previous owner left a few cameras, WiFi access points, music players, and a mess of cords, cables, wires, and some power supplies. He called TSRAV and we designed a solution.

We got to work and cleaned up all the infrastructure, delivered a brand new AV rack with power management, a UPS to keep them running during power outages, Ubiquiti Inc networking with remote management, a new Integra Home Theater AVR to power the living room surround audio with Control4 to control it, and got the distributed audio back up and running with the existing Arylic network players.

Thanks to this client for the opportunity to upgrade his family's beautiful home's systems!

Any post-holiday upgrades planned for your theater? The laser-based JVC NZ800/RS3200 and NZ700/RS2200 are both on sale right now for $2000 and $1000 off, respectively. If you've been hanging onto an older lamp-based machine to squeeze a few more years out of it, now is a good time to think about upgrading!

The JVCs regularly come out on top in our shootouts, both in terms of objective measured performance, and in subjective impressions.

If you have a fairly typical screen size, the JVCs are tough to beat!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all of our friends and customers! We hope Santa brought you movies or speakers or a Kaleidescape or something else fun for your home theater. But, if he didn't, we'll be your Santa. 😉

We're out of the office tomorrow and Friday and we'll be back next week. But, seriously - we hope you all have a safe and enjoyable time with friends and family.

Finally a little marketing love for the Revel brand!

It's just a little lifestyle piece, but we'll take it! There are three of them, so we'll post the other two the next few days.

This one features Revel audio in a Lincoln Aviator and video description begins, "The art of luxury meets the science of sound." Love it!

It almost brings a tear to our eye! Nice work, Harman!

The art of luxury meets the science of sound. Experience every detail in your music and let the stress of the world outside melt away.
