You running your own multiplex?


Yes, have done for a while - late night movies on the main one (aka 'Plex1)
which is due for an upgrade to 'Full HD 1080p' when Amazon decide to stop
punishing me for not paying about 7 quid *delivery blackmail money* and send
me my new Oppy HD800X:

And mostly recorded TV progs and *era movies* (Conrad Veidt and Valerie
Hobson in The Spy In Black is the most recent superb example) on 'Plex 2 (my
room) which will soon benefit from the 700X from 'Plex 1!

(Which will flush out as 'spare' a *perfectly good* splendid Benq W100 DLP
with low hours on it, if anyone wants one!)

The amount of TV progs with a very good 'soundtrack' like the endless
historical Jazz and Blues progs, for example, is almost unbelievable when
you push past 'CSI' and the dreck that Plowies works in - called 'Da Biw' or
somesuch, IIRC..!!??

Listening to these on a seriously clear audio system with a picture 6' wide
before you (less on the older, 4:3 stuff) is a totally different/enveloping
experience compared with just 'watching the telly'!!
