For the 5.1 audio output I just use an Audigy2 with a digital output
straight into my DD amp. Sounds fine to me!
I use TheaterTek DVD software player. This has been optimized for Home
Cinema PCs and has some cool features like a nice clean user interface,
automatic aspect switching and onscreen video controls for Radeon PC
cards.
Cheers
Don

Hi
I am not thinking about bulb costs yet!!
I have heard that some suppliers will do a dead pixel check before
shipping so I am looking around.
I have got a timber framed house so I am going to try a seat the screen
in the ceiling/floor cavity so that should look less obvious.
Cheers for everything.
